Stampen

Stampen – World famous jazz & rhythm'n'blues bar in the Old Town of Stockholm

FROM CHURCH PREMISES TO PAWN SHOP TO JAZZ CLUB Jazz enthusiast Sten Holmquist discovered Stampen as a pawnshop romantically located in the old town of Stockholm.

It came complete with a 17th century cellar, and until 1880 had been the premises of the French Reform Church.

The name “Stampen” is derived from the stamps clients would receive per regular maintenance payments, for items they had deposited at the pawn shop as collateral.

Converted into a jazz pub in 1968 years ago, many antique items – stuffed animals and instruments – still hang from the ceiling of Stampen, betraying its roots It has become a meeting place for people of all ages, offering anything from the “American Folk Music of 1910-1959” – traditional jazz as it is known to some – to modern blues, or soul r&b acts.

Or as we simply put it: American roots music!

That’s right, we – the brains behind this restaurant, are in a long-distance relationship with the magical world on the other side of the Atlantic – America.

The rest of the time until you meet again is just an endless road…covered with snow!

To survive the periods without America we decided to bundle everything we love about her at the same spot at home.

A piece of the Southwestern States in the middle of Stockholm.

We love Mexican food, we love LA, we love Margarita, we love the desert, we love California, we love tequila, we love dive bars, we love the sun, we love music, we love Arizona, we love beer, we love cactuses, we love cilantro, we love New Mexico, we love the mountains, we love tacos, we love endless roads in the middle of nowhere, we love freedom!

Även menyn var formad i samma stil som inredningen.

Personalen var väldigt trevlig och serviceinriktad, vilket är rätt ovanligt när man är på en pub.

Maten var god, men kanske en aning dyr med tanke på vad man får.
