The story

PM & Vänner in Växjö: New Nordic Restaurant With a Michelin Star

PM & Vänner, at Storgatan 22-24 in Växjö, is a New Nordic restaurant that earned one Michelin star in 2026. The kitchen works with produce from the Småland countryside, and the group's fine-dining room, bistro and rooftop bar all draw on the same local supply.

Cooking with Småland produce

The menu relies on local and locally sourced ingredients. A roasted cauliflower course comes with quail eggs from Lammhult and shaved summer truffle, finished with crumbs of the dark rye bread Mörka Småland. Herbs and edible flowers are picked from the group's own garden. The White Guide singled out the wine service as well, with chefssommelier Rubén Sanz Ramiro pairing a white Burgundy with the baked trout.

Bistro, bar and rooftop

The bistro forms the heart of the group, with a classic brasserie feel and a relaxed evening pace. Dessert brings together strawberries, wild strawberries, pink peppercorn, vanilla and lime. Guests can finish upstairs at the rooftop bar, where a rosy cocktail echoes the sunset over Växjö's rooftops.

History

On the record

2026
White Guide — Very fine level

The bastion of Småland’s flavors, the PM & Vänner group, encompasses a fine-dining restaurant, rooftop bar, flower room, bakery, and bistro, but it is the welcoming and approachable bistro that forms its heart. Here, you enjoy top-tier cuisine at a very reasonable price. A classic brasserie ambiance matches the knowledgeable and friendly service, while the relaxed atmosphere evokes an elegant Friday evening vibe. Local and locally sourced are the guiding principles on the menu. Roasted cauliflower with quail eggs from Lammhult and shaved summer truffle is served alongside crispy crumbs of the dark rye bread Mörka Småland. Paired with a glass of refreshing white wine from the hill town of San Gimignano in Tuscany. For the main course of baked trout, a white Burgundy from Simon Bize & Fils provides the perfect complement. And this is precisely what makes a dinner at PM’s Bistro so special—the seamless harmony between food and wine creates an experience in itself, well worth the journey. A cheese-rich risotto dressed in floral summer accents is another standout, and the edible, vibrant flowers and fresh herbs that garnish our dishes come straight from PM’s own garden. Strawberries, wild strawberries, pink peppercorn, vanilla, and lime define the flavors of the evening’s dessert, before we wrap things up upstairs at PM’s rooftop bar with a rosy cocktail that mirrors the twilight sky over Växjö’s rooftops.
