If you’re searching for where to drink Champagne in Gothenburg, or simply typing “champagne bar near me”, this guide is for you. Sweden’s west-coast harbour city pairs a serious seafood culture with a real love of bubbles, which makes it a surprisingly rewarding place to chase a great glass. Here are four spots we love.
Champagnebaren (Kyrkogatan 13)
Tucked into one of Gothenburg’s cosiest cobbled courtyards just off Magasinsgatan, this dedicated Champagne bar has been making bubbles approachable since 2012. It imports its own bottles, so you’ll find a rare line-up of grower Champagnes alongside the big houses, plus oysters and charcuterie to match. In summer the courtyard fills up, sometimes with live music.
Fiskekrogen
A Gothenburg institution serving seafood since 1972, Fiskekrogen sits in a grand dining room by Lilla Torget and the harbour canal. The shellfish platters are the stars, and the Champagne list is genuinely strong – the natural way to toast a tower of oysters and langoustines.
Dorsia Hotel & Restaurant
Opulent, theatrical and gloriously over-the-top, this Belle Époque design hotel near Kungsportsplatsen is a destination in itself. Settle into the bar or restaurant for a glass of Champagne from the deep cellar, a plate of oysters, or the famous afternoon tea.
Bar Amuse at Hotel Pigalle
Step off busy Brunnsparken into Hotel Pigalle’s 1920s Parisian fantasy. Bar Amuse, the velvet-and-brass wine bar on the ground floor, is made for lingering over a glass of Champagne and a board of French cheese; in summer, head up to the rooftop terrace for bubbles with a view over the city.
