Find the right brunch in Gothenburg
Gothenburg is full of restaurants and cafés serving brunches. From Linnéstaden and Haga to Masthugget and the city center – there are plenty of gems for those who love brunching.
But with so many brunch gems, finding the right one can be a challenge. To help you navigate among all the places, we’ve put together a guide to the best brunch in Gothenburg. Enjoy your meal!
Norda
Sit down in this exclusive setting and enjoy the food, drinks, and atmosphere. The luxurious brunch menu includes delicious dishes like the Philly Steak Sandwich, Shrimp & Lobster Roll, and Chicken Wrap. And the icing on the cake is the amazing dessert table inspired by none other than Willy Wonka. The drinks menu offers everything from wine and bubbly to fresh drinks like Bloody Mary and Mimosas.
But it’s not just the food that makes Norda a fabulous brunch place. Music also plays a vital role in the Brunch Club concept. Skilled DJs set the right mood with great music – festive on Saturdays and relaxed on Sundays.
Brunchoteket
Brunchoteket has an extensive menu full of tasty comfort food with international influences – both savory options and sweeter dishes that will make you full and happy. It has everything you could want from a classic brunch in Gothenburg – pancakes, waffles, French toast, eggs benedict, sausages, bacon, and, of course, vegetarian and vegan options. In terms of drinks, you can enjoy everything from coffee and hot chocolate to Mimosas and sparkling wine.
Please note that they only have drop-in, so you can’t book a table in advance. In summer, there’s also a nice and spacious outdoor terrace.

Lemon Garden
In a tropical green oasis full of plants and greenery, you can indulge in sweet desserts and smoothies combined with more savory dishes. The inspiration comes from Tulum, Mexico, which is reflected in everything from the menu to the relaxed atmosphere.
It’s clear that Lemon Garden focuses on flavor and health. Fruit and vegetables play an essential role in the in-house developed dishes, and only the best ingredients are used. Add to that an ambitious and colorful Caribbean-style set-up as the icing on the cake. Just order your favorites and enjoy the delightful environment – or why not go for a takeaway and have brunch in the sun on the quayside outside? Much of the food is also vegan, gluten-free, and lactose-free.
Breakfast Society
The Breakfast Society’s à la carte menu offers a wide range of goodies – from healthy options to more savory dishes. Smoothie bowls, avocado sandwiches, American pancakes, shakshuka, eggs benedict, Caesar salad, and burgers are just a few examples. In other words, you won’t be hungry when you leave. Parts of the menu are also available lactose-free, gluten-free, or vegan.

BodyBuddy Café & Bakery
BodyBuddy doesn’t use gluten, lactose, or refined sugar in its food and makes it from scratch using fresh seasonal ingredients. The flavors have been inspired by Bali, South Africa, and India, and the mixed menu includes bowls, salads, porridge, sandwiches, homemade juices, smoothies, and more. Plus sweets like banana bread and carrot cake (sugar-free, of course). All delicious and, as mentioned, healthy.
Besides the weekend brunch, you can also have breakfast, lunch, or ‘fika’ at BodyBuddy (they also offer catering). And, of course, you can also opt for takeaway if you want to sit outside the restaurant and soak up the bustling quayside life and all the boats passing by.
Egg & Milk
Brunch at Egg & Milk is made from scratch and served every day of the week, from early morning to afternoon. It has everything you could want from a hearty American brunch, and you can choose a ready-made combo or order your favorites. The extensive menu includes a wide range of delicious egg dishes, pancakes, waffles, sandwiches, and salads. And not least, there is a big selection of fantastic New York-style bagels. Combine your meal with a milkshake, freshly squeezed juices, smoothies, coffee, or another tasty drink.
Egg & Milk also offers catering if you want to enhance your party, event, or meeting with American food classics. And in their web shop you can buy maple syrup, coffee, and merch.
