EVERYTHING YOU NEED TO KNOW ABOUT IKEA HOTEL & RESTAURANT
IKEA fans will be surprised to know that there’s NO guarantee of Ikea Meatballs on the Ikea Hotel menu.
You may find IKEA meatballs with potato puree, cream sauce, pickled cucumber and lingon on the menu.
Or, you may not.
The menu changes from season to season.
But the IKEA menu does feature all the best seasonal foods, organic where possible, and modern Scandinavian influences.
You won’t be disappointed.
(If eating Swedish Meatballs from Ikea is on your ‘ Best Things to do in Sweden ‘ bucketlist, visit the IKEA Museum restaurant, or the IKEA Almhult restaurant. Meatballs are ALWAYS on the menu at these places.)
