We have not been to Barton’s in over 20 years.
Nothing has changed. Same decor, GREAT fried chicle and chicken livers. The chicken is more like extra crispy not original recipe KFC. It’s really good and moist.
Our waitress has been there for 32 years and her mom was waitress for 52 years. Barton’s has been there since 1951.
I highly recommend Bartos. Much better than the other chicken houses, in my opinion.

Best fried chicken in SEK. Outstanding service, and they serve great drinks. They have live music on weekends, which is a big plus.
