ok

The staff was quite ignorant and didn't make us feel that welcome. They have two doors where guests can enter and one of them is where the guests are eating. So whenever someone new came, it got cold in the entire room since it was winter. Maybe they could have closed that entrance... the buffet is quite expensive in our opinion especially because you have to pay extra for beverages and dessert in case you want that (which is pretty much always the case...). Those things are quite expensive too but you get water for free (thank god). I think they could have given a discount on the drinks or desserts to the people who get the buffet. But the food is good :)

Prices are reasonable for stockholm standards 19 euro for all you can eat buffet. Very good quality dishes, range of cold and hot food salads baked and seasoned potatoes, vegan lasagna curry. Everythings good.

Vegan buffet & café with view on the port

Cozy place with a terrace (sheltered wintertime) and panoramic view [reservation suggested for the terrace].
The buffet (as much as you like) offers several tasty dishes freshly prepared.
The cafe also offers cakes.

Pros: As much as you like, Tasty, Panoramic view

Cons: Self-service only, Slightly croudy

Almost 5 Stars!

Herman's was so nearly perfect! The food is great, the view is simply outstanding, the restaurant plays good music and the prices are fair for Stockholm standards.
However, improvements could be made.
It's a small restaurant with one of the best views in the whole city so it's in demand, and many tables are reserved in advance. However, during our time there, we were moved from table to table twice without much explanation or apology. One of the dishes was gone and not refilled during our time too which was unfortunate.
Work out a better way of dealing with crowds and reservations and Herman's would be perfect!

Pros: Amazing city view, Nice variety of good food, Plays good music

Cons: Bad organization for crowds, Reservations system could be improved

Vegan is what matters - naturally!

This place rocks! A wonderful assortment of vegan dishes that has nuanced flavors for all pallets. The staff was super friendly and they were constantly freshening up the buffet with new and exciting entrees and other goodies. I found it very affordable, about $15, an all you can buffet of this quality would cost $20 in the USA. As for worrying about bio food, the most important thing for the planet is promoting things that lessen the impact of animal agriculture first and the organics will follow, i.e., we all cannot afford to eat pure organic food all the time. Therefore, restaurants like this must strike the balance of bringing vegan food to a wider audience and acquiring organic produce 100% of the time. If they did the latter, the price points would be unsustainable and they might not survive.
I wish we had this place in my home town. If you can only come to one vegan place in Stockholm make it Hermans!

(P.S. For the sake of public health, please please please require a new plate for return trips to the buffet. This is the law in most cities because when people touch the serving spoon to their used plate it can easily transmit horrible diseases like hepatitis A etc.)

Pros: The food is exceptional and it has the best view o

Cons: They should require a new plate every time to the

A disappointing visit

I went to Herman's for Valentine's Day as they had a special menu. Unfortunately I was very underwhelmed. The dinner was 300kr ($35USD) and was hardly anything special. The presentation was nice, but that's about it. The food was average.

Our server was completely unreliable; she was scattered and din't even explain the dishes to us as they arrived — we had to ask the chef as he passed. Worst of all, the tables were SO close together that I was only a few inches away from the stranger beside me.

Overall, I found it to be disappointing and not worth the money. Maybe I'll give them another shot, though I can't say I'm excited.

Pros: Decent food, Nice interior

Cons: Expensive, Crowded, Poor service

Just Yes!!!

We went here two nights in a row ... our last two nights because it was so perfect!

Food is delicious and so much choice!!! Everything is vegan!!! Even the delicious cakes!! A whole salad bar and hot options like pizza, shepherds pie, puff pastry pies topped with sesame seeds. Everything was so tasty and it's a buffet so you help yourself!

Drinks are great, they don't have wine 'no strong alcohol' but they have cider and fruit juice and coke as well as free help yourself tap water.

The dessert tart with crumbled shortcake and blue berries with vanilla cream (which we took away with us) was so yummy!!!

Really friendly staff who spoke excellent English!!!

Lastly, the place is set up so nicely with pictures and quotes on the wall going down the steps. Some witty t-shirts for sale e.g. 'Give peas a chance' or 'lettuce pray' and fantastic views over the sea.

Perfect; a must see if you visit Stockholm!

You can turn up or book a table before; it was quite busy both nights we went.

Enjoy!

Exepcional vegan food

I never review anything online. But this place deserves it.
Best cakes and coffee ever, seriously it was the most delicious chocolate cake i've ever tasted.
The golden milk and the oat milk latte was outstanding too.
It's a shame that we lost our chance to try the vegan christmas buffe.-
But we went to the tradicional one and it was delicious. the scaloped potatoes were remarkable-
The whole personal of the restaurant was very kind and helpful. Hoping to be back.

Pros: the food, the personal, the view

Cons: it's difficult to find it

Great restaurant with very good food!

The restaurant offers a buffet with plenty of choice for a very reasonable price (which even includes tea or coffee).

The staff is nice and always willing to help you with any information.
The place is located just near the Fotografiska Museum which is perfect is you want to have a meal after seeing an exhibition there!

Pros: Excellent food, View, Price

Cons: No desserts included in buffet price

heavenly food

let me start by saying i really had no choice but to try everything, so I ate too much and my belly was sore. but everything was absolutely delicious- the lasagne, hummus, potatoes, salads. and the best thing was thay you didnt have to ask if it was vegan. of course it was. and so many people were there which made me happy.

Pros: all vegan, cosy

All vegan buffet

I can confirm everything is vegan here, it was the first question I asked! Basically it works like this: you pay first, and then you fill your plate with as much as you can eat. If you want to add dessert to the meal, you will have to pay extra. It is a bit expensive: a meal for 2 was around $53 after the conversion. The food selection was great and I'm glad they have a sign reminding you not to be wasteful and fill your plate only with the amount of food you really need. It's a very generous meal, so pace yourself. We sat inside because it was chilly outside, but you also have that option if you have warm clothes.

Pros: Great vegan food, as much as you can eat, Friendly atmosphere, Outside seating available

Cons: Expensive

Its all good

Went on a Tuesday after 3p and it was 195DK per person and desserts were half off with purchase of buffet. Coffee and tea included. No alcoholic beverages available.

Went on a Thursday before 3 and it was 100DK per person for takeaway. Desserts were full price. Dine in was 130DK. With takeaway we were given 2 containers per person about 5"x8".

My choice of seating was the patio with umbrellas (and heaters) right off the indoor dining. The open patio just done the steps from the indoor dining/umbrella covered patio had great views too!

Pros: ample options, great views, friendly staff

Cons: not enough to detour me from going, but no alcohol

Lovely

With so many options on the buffet it's hard to know what to try next. everything was really tasty.The only slight downside is that when we entered it wasn't clear what to do, eventually found the till where you pay and pick up the plate.It would have been nice if some sweet option was part of the buffet as the cakes were a little expensive.We loved it so much we went twice in the short weekend we visited.

Pros: Lots of options, everything vegan

Cons: No desert included in the buffet

Amazing food with a view

We ate here twice during our visit - once for a late lunch and once for dinner. The evening we went there was a vegan BBQ - including lots of fresh veg and vegan sausages and meatballs. The food is delicious, freshly made and tons of choice. Plus great (free) coffee and amazing cakes and pies! Lovely in summer when you can sit outside and take in the amazing view. Definitely recommend.

Pros: excellent food, great location

amazing vegan food

I really enjoyed Hermans. The food was amazing and so was the view. I loved the chole masala dish they had. The grilled items were also great. All the food is vegan and the staff were very friendly. Like other buffets, you pay as you walk in then eat! The pay line is also the dessert line which slows things down. Hermans is in the basement of the building.

Pros: all vegan buffet

Cons: confusing to find the first time

A must go in Stockholm

if you only have 1 day in the city and have to choose for 1 place to eat, this is the one. Everything in the buffet is delicious, cozy environment, amazing view (specially if there are no huge cruise ships on the way:). Went with a meat-eating friend and we all loved it. There is a 50% discount for students which is great but I still found it a bit expensive, but it is totally worth it. Desserts should be included in the buffet though. I had an apple pie with vanilla sauce and it was delicious. Staff is friendly and speak perfect english. I personally think it is great that a restaurant at this beautiful and touristic location offers such good quality vegan food, it promotes the message that vegan food can be delicious to omnivores that decide to stop by unwarned

Pros: great view, great food, discount for students

Cons: a bit pricy

Veggie with a View

A good selection of items and friendly service. You pay for your plate and then help yourself. Probably not the most inspired set of dishes; fairly familiar if you've been to other restaurants of this style. But everything was fresh, well made and tasty and if you can sit outside or at a table with a view of the water then it really makes your meal special.

Pros: Great location and good size restaurant, Tasty food and good range of tea options included, Friendly staff

Cons: Fairly standard set of dishes
