Oh, where do I start!! Every coffee shop I go to I judge by the friendliness of the staff and the quality of their coffee and this place takes the cake. The hospitality of the ladies who work their is off the charts and makes their already great coffee taste even better! You could tell how much they care about thier customers and the place, they don't wait for you to ask for a refill. Oh yeah, refills are free for brewed coffee! I definitely recommend the sea food soup and their cookies, they taste fantastic!
Love this place!! They have my favorite sandwich (shrimp sandwich), love the cafe design, atmosphere, food, coffee and excellent service. Glad this place is so close to my house. It has become one of my favorite spots to go for a meal or snack.
Cars and coffee doesn’t get better without a touch of a Swedish coffee shop with them damn good daim cakes oh my god so so so good ! Service is awesome and super friendly will be going back every time !
Love this place--the coffee is exceptional and the food is traditional Swedish, very fresh and delicious. I highly recommend visiting this gem with its Scandinavian flair and wonderful staff.
An under-rated coffee shop in the Birmingham Area. Plenty of parking and baristas offer a friendly greeting when you walk in the door. Small vibe coffee shop with an amazing selection of coffee and specialty treats. Outdoor seating is nice addition. Will definitely be back.
Love it great people and great food very underrated cafe this place is a must go hot spot
As a Swede living in Michigan I was very happy to learn about this authentic Swedish café! A truly “mysigt” spot in the middle of bustling downtown Birmingham, Svenska Café serves traditional Swedish sandwiches and pastries. Great staff and cozy environment, too!
Very good service, wonderful staff and tasty Swedish sandwiches and snacks.
I felt like I was in Sweden by visiting this place, and will surely come back again!!! Highly recommended!
Their half Viking’s plate is to die for, yummy!!!!
I fell in love with Sweden and Scandanavian culture on a trip to Sweden and Norway. I've been disappointed trying to find authentic Swedish coffee shops...until this place came along. I love sitting down with a coffee and a Swedish snack and feeling like I've been transported back to Sweden if only for 30 minutes. Tack Svenska Cafe!
Love the place what more can I say!!! The only down side is that the pastries are so darn delicious I stop in everyday.
What a great little coffee shop right in the neighborhood! Coffee and pastries are delicious! Owners are so friendly and accommodating. I'll be sending all my peeps over from Relevé after barre class :)
Always love supporting local businesses. Svenska has a terrific feel to it. The coffee and food is made fresh every day (I've walked in while they were preparing their smoked salmon sandwich, which is delicious). You can tell they're developing their menu and refining their "taste" every day. They've only been open a month and I already have my go-to items. One note: be prepared for smaller servings of coffee. They don't offer large or Venti sized cups (if you've ever traveled abroad, you know that this is especially common in Europe). I highly suggest you give this new coffee shop a try.
Great atmosphere! Love the coffee and little treats! Just a walk away from downtown Birmingham!
As a Swede this was a perfect fix! Everything from the coffee to the treats are genuine Swedish dishes ❤️ I'll be back for more for sure!
I only drank coffee, but it was VERY good. Would like to go back to actually eat
I just had my first räksmörgås in 7 years!! It was awesome! I will for sure come back.
Best spot in Birmingham! Such great people, awesome food and deserts!
Great place, lovely customer service and the food is delicious!
Wow! The latte was simply amazing! The food is super clean, made daily from scratch, healthy and very fresh. The curry mango chicken sandwich I had was very tasty. The bread was soft and fresh. The pastries are a must! Definitely going back again and for more! �
Great people ( they are actually Swedish) ;) great coffee products and authentic foods.
First time there today with a few friends, I had a latte and Swedish cinnamon roll they were lovely! the staff are really friendly and welcoming will definitely be back!
Wonderful! The owners are so friendly and the food and beverages are delightfully fresh and delicious.
Amazing food with exciting Swedish treats and coffee! Loved it!
Christina and her team serve authentic Scandinavian cuisine in the heart of Birmingham.
Great addition to the local dining scene. Great hot cocoa and pastries for me, while my husband loved his smoked salmon sandwich.
great place, great coffee and cocoa and wonderful pastries!!!!!!
Had lunch there today. Food was wonderful. Atmosphere lovely and quaint.
The chicken sandwich and vegan lentil soup were very good! So was the muffin and the iced tea. The cappuccino was out of the world! The croissant sandwich was OK. Very nice to see a independent small business that offers good quality food and friendly service. I was happy to support.
Very nice coffee shop, with unique pastry and sandwich options. The space is very light and airy, dotted with small tables inside and outside.
A very modern and clean coffee house with friendly women from Sweden working there. And its not that expensive for such a good product
Really amazing staff! I love the food/coffee/pastries. My family has an appreciation for the Swedish culture that makes this place extra special!
Wonderful 👏 place ❤ ♥ for a ☕ coffee and sandwich 🥪 😋 😀
The salmon toast was delicious the dill was fresh. I had the most wonderful Dirty Chai the aroma of cardamon was strong. The scent reminded me of morning coffee with a friend that I haven't seen in so long.
Wonderful, love the outdoor seating with heater!
