Eating out, or eating out

To eat out has two different meanings in Luleå. Truly treat yourself at one of the city’s gourmet
restaurants, where skilled chefs prepare local, high-quality ingredients with a steady hand and
give you Swedish Lapland’s full palette of flavours. You simply have to eat the delicious, nutritious game, reindeer and elk that have lived in the wild, enjoy game fish that have swum in pure, clear
waters and let yourself be seduced by blueberries, cloudberries, arctic raspberries and lingonberries that have ripened in the midnight sun.

Eating out also has another, more literal interpretation, here in Luleå – when the food is served outside. Nothing tastes as good as a mealcooked over an open fire, preferably  to round off a day of great outdoor activities. A muurikka (a large frying pan) is often used to cook things
such as suovas, lightly smoked reindeer meat, or fry palt, Swedish potato dumplings.

If you’d rather enjoy a latte in a café setting, sit back and feel the city pulse, you have come to the right place. There are number of nice cafés and patisseries to choose from. One thing is for sure: good food and good company are two important parts of the Luleå experience. Welcome to the table!
