Side Track

The only gay bear bar in Stockholm. The location is a bit far from the centre, around 10 minutes by metro from the main train station. Amazing drinks, quick service, the bar is small but cozy. The only complaint is they close early even on a weekend night.

The staff were nice, and the atmosphere was good. But it didn’t feel like there was enough staff for the number of people who were there. Unlike other people, the staff were really nice to me though quite overwhelmed with the number of guests. Despite that, the gay bar and vibe was great.

Super friendly bartenders! Felt very welcomed here at a traveler. Smaller dive bar feel. Bar is tucked away underground. Bathroom line was a disaster though, impossible to use the restroom.

Very friendly staff. Nice bar in a basement... Be sure to watch out for it, or you ll miss it. Smaller sign on a normal door right next to another bar. They make you feel very comfortable here right away.

Unequal treatment – not recommended. I visited Sidetrack on June 6th 2024 with two Swedish friends and experienced a noticeable difference in how we were treated. While my friends were welcomed and served normally, I was repeatedly overlooked. My drink was never delivered despite several reminders, and I was only able to order food because another staff member eventually stepped in to assist. Only two tables were occupied that evening, while all the others remained empty, making the difference in service even more noticeable. Throughout the visit, I felt ignored and excluded. As a paying guest, I expect equal, respectful, and professional treatment regardless of background or language. Unfortunately, this was not my experience. As a person with a foreign background, I could not help but question whether my treatment was influenced by discrimination. I cannot say with certainty what motivated this unequal treatment, but it left me feeling deeply uncomfortable and unwelcome. I do not recommend this place if you value fair and professional service.
