Café Corniche — Restaurant in Stockholm

In a city where shisha lounges are almost impossible to find due to strict regulations, Café Corniche stands out as a rare and welcoming gem. The shisha here is excellent — smooth, flavorful, and perfectly prepared — making it the only place in Stockholm where you can truly enjoy a proper session.

The food matches the quality of the shisha. Their tabbouleh is fresh and vibrant, the hummus is creamy and authentic, and the warak enab (stuffed grape leaves) are packed with flavor. For mains, the shish taouk is tender and well-marinated, while the veal is cooked to perfection. Every dish feels carefully made, with an attention to both presentation and taste.

If you’re looking for a place in Stockholm that combines authentic Middle Eastern flavors with a rare, high-quality shisha experience, Café Corniche is without question the top choice.

In the end we didnt want to pay for it but they claimed this was just the way they make shisha. They even agreed with us that it was bad. We still had to pay for it though. All in all, overcrowed, noisy and...

I visited this place while searching for hookah in Stockholm, and it seemed to be one of the very few spots still allowed to operate. The restaurant itself was nicely decorated, with decent Arabic and Lebanese food. However, the hookah area was a major downside it’s located underground in a very small, enclosed space where food isn’t allowed due to Swedish regulations. It felt quite suffocating, though that’s not really the restaurant’s fault, as they’re just following the rules. The Lebanese and Libyan staff managing the hookah were very friendly, and the Egyptian chef was...
