Stockholm under the rainbow
Visit Mälarpaviljongen on any given day during the summer and you’re likely to meet a diverse group of guests. Toddlers play on the small sandy beach next to the garden tables, while their fathers sip coffee and keep a nervous eye on their offspring. A scant tables away an elderly lady, perhaps a bit over 80, enjoys her daily lunch in the lush garden, seeking shadow behind an olive vegetation. Further away on the pontoon extending on the waters of Riddarfjärden, a couple on holiday sip rosé and soak up the sun.
In the middle of it all, Arto Winter criss-crosses among the tables, talking to the staff and making sure that everything is running smoothly. He and his business partner Anders Karlsson have been running an outdoor summer restaurant here since 2004. Ever since then the rainbow flags, Mälarpaviljongen’s signature, have been waving proudly in the summer breeze.
“We stand for the same values the rainbow flag stands for. Welcoming the gay community, of course, but also their friends and everyone else who feels at house in that atmosphere. The rainbow flag never excludes anyone,” he says.

Beyond the gay bars, make sure to also check out our ‘Full Gay Travel Guide to Stockholm’.
