Sweden Food Market and Bistro

In the mood for a delicious bite to eat maybe a delicious hotdog on a steamed bun with all the toppings.
THIS IS NOT THE PLACE!
Meet Hildegard Lächert my server I’d like to say she’s a fresh ray of sunshine but she’s not, she comes to work each day with the same attitude she had when she worked at Auschwitz. Almost forgot a sample size coffee from the community cistern will set you back $1.61

The veggie dogs and plant dog is cheap food so if you’re at IKEA and hungry these are totally worth getting, but I can’t say I would drive out of my way to order these. They were out of the pickled beets but we got the crispy onions as a topping for an extra 25 cents. The veggie dog in my opinion was tastier than the plant dog—both are vegan. Overall, it was pretty decent and for the price you can order as many as you like. Edit: 2nd time we got the Veggie Meatballs and it was pretty good. As for no gravy. Staff said Mash potatoes are vegan but you can also order fries instead. Updated from previous review on 2024-05-25

I think that the food here is pretty good. I really like the plant balls and the veggie dogs. Now are they the best vegan meatballs and vegan hot dogs I've ever had? No, but after a long day at IKEA they do slap, and under a dollar for the hot dogs is nice on the wallet. Also, lots of goodies in the Swedish food market including vegan gummy snacks

not food I would actively seek out but it's cheap and filling. I spent 9.70 and got a little salad, vegan meatballs steamed veggies and a bowl of soup.

We got our mess to go and I definitely recommend eating in the bistro.They didn't fare well and it doesn't seem as if they are set up for takeaway. No cutlery or bags for the food.The salmon was relatively bland and the sauce it was swimming in was okay. The corn was corn and the croquet was very tasty. The meatballs were better than many places and on par with most restaurants. The peas and mashed potatoes needed additional spices, but some pepper and we were good.The portion size is an actual normal size which is really nice because it's not a jumbo sized meal, which means you have better portion control. The cost is reasonable.I look forward to trying some salads and dining inside the bistro next time.

You cannot beat the 90¢ veggie dogs at IKEA! On top of that, they have veggie meatballs and vegan meals available in the cafeteria.

Staying nearby I walked to Ikea and explored the various areas of the store. Enjoyed a light delicious dessert. Wish we had one near us

Candy selection is still very limited, and even of the items on display, several were unavailable.

This IKEA is pretty much like all the others, which is a good thing. We stopped for lingonberry slushies downstairs (you can buy cups at the registers) and then went upstairs for meatball dinners. It was kind of packed. Apparently a lot of locals come here for meals, but everything was cheap and good. We shopped the marketplace afterwards since no one needed furniture. The teens enjoyed all the fake rooms and everyone picked up a cheap little something. FYI IKEA has the only apple slicers I've ever bought that actually last a few years. I'm sure we'll be back.

My husband, my two toddlers and myself went to Ikea tonight. Not busy at all and tons of workers standing around. We were at check out and they told us we couldn't buy 2 storage bins because we didn't have the lids. 1) we didn't know they came with lids 2) we didn't want them. Not only would they NOT allow us to buy them but 2 mgrs, Billy and Sarah, and loss prevention came to us and told us that we would have to go get them. Now we were tired, Ikea is a HUGE store, and they never once asked if they could quickly go get them for us. No lines at check out. 4 people telling us we couldn't buy something. Sooo we had to put everything back in our cart, go back through the store, find the lids and we were so upset. The little tiny sign that says we should get both parts was covered by one of the other advertised containers. When we finally got back up to check out, I went back to the mgr Sarah and said that I was so disappointed with their customer service approach which was, "you either want it or you don't" and "that is our policy" which were both solutions to our problems apparently, and she could only muster the effort to say "Have a nice day". My kids are hungry, mommy is so crushed. 4 people standing around could have saved our day and made our Thanksgiving one of gratitude. But instead I am writing this review hoping that America changes the way they "take our money". I will be reaching out to Keith, who I was told was the store mgr and for Billy?....You are a mature man who I hope would understand that having a family walk all the way back through the store for a lid when you have workers standing around is a straight up "I don't really care" attitude and it shows. Please tell me someone else has had a similar experience and it is making me question my faith in humanity.

Stopped in on a late afternoon (on a Monday) and theIKEA restaurant was out of baked salmon and other items. The set up of the restaurant was identical to all of the IKEAs that I have been in. Plus Covid reduced foot traffic of customers, so not busy. Friendly staff. Good prices.

The bistro is Located inside the Ikea store.
