Djursholms Restaurant

The restaurant was started by källarmästare Wilhelm Strandberg, who was 25 years old at the time and had experience from Berns salonger in Stockholm, Sweden.

The restaurant building was a villa at a property owned by Stockholm-Rimbo Järnvägsaktiebolag in the block Gandvik, close to Samsöviken in Stora Värtan.

[1] August Strindberg lived in Djursholm for a short period 1891–92 and drew up plans for a theatre in the restaurant's large dining room.

The locations were used for a traditional restaurant, for private and public parties and for municipal meetings.

[1] A new restaurant (Djursholms värdshus) and a family hotel was built at the premises in 1968, designed by architect Bertil Falck[4] at FFNS.
