Side Track is a gay bar in Stockholm with a loyal following. Tucked away in Södermalm, Stockholm's oldest gay bar has been a go-to for years thanks to its intimate feel, chatty regulars, and a soundtrack of pop and throwback hits. The drinks come quick, along with a bar menu that’s better than you'd expect for the price.
It’s a little out of the centre, but worth the ride.
