Summer café in Kristinehamn’s archipelago, right by the Vålösund jetty. Enjoy sandwiches, Swedish fika and Klings ice cream with a view of Lake Vänern.
A pause by the water
Just a short walk from the Picasso sculpture, Café Pärlan is located right next to the Vålösundsbryggan – the hub for summer boat tours. It’s a peaceful spot where you can enjoy the archipelago atmosphere and views over Vålösundet.
Ice cream and Swedish fika
Café Pärlan offers simple summer refreshments: sandwiches, baked goods and ice cream from the local favourite, Klings. There is no hot food or alcohol, but it’s a perfect stop for a light break – whether you arrive by boat, bike or on foot.
Part of the summer home
The café is part of the Church of Sweden’s summer home, where you’ll also find a chapel and open preschool during the summer months. The area is accessible, with a ramp, accessible toilet and parking for both cars and buses nearby.
