Nytorget is the relaxed square at the heart of SoFo, the area south of Folkungagatan that is Södermalm's most fashionable pocket. Ringed by cafés, brunch spots, and restaurants with terraces spilling onto the pavement, it is where the neighbourhood's café culture is at its most concentrated — a good place to settle in for a coffee or a long weekend brunch and watch local Södermalm life go by.
The streets radiating off the square are full of vintage clothing, independent design, and small boutiques, making it ideal for an unhurried afternoon of browsing and grazing. There is a small park alongside with a playground, which adds to the easygoing, family-and-creatives mix that defines this corner of the island.
