Head Chef Thomas Omfors
Dining by the Sea
Segelsalen
At Segelsalen, Swedish classics meet the flavours of European bistro cooking. Toast Skagen, bouillabaisse and witch sole with butter sauce sit alongside beef tartare and creamy chanterelle pasta. Head Chef Thomas Omfors and his team cook with care and a fondness for both the familiar and the unexpected.
We serve a daily lunch special throughout the year. From pork with onion sauce and cod with egg sauce to boeuf bourguignon and porchetta, there’s always something worth gathering around the table for.
As evening settles in, start with a cocktail and a few small bites for the table. Take your time over dinner and finish with a selection of cheeses or something sweet. The sea is just outside the window. The rest of the evening is yours.
Our Bistro
Welcome to the Bistro – the heart and living room of the hotel, where the atmosphere is as relaxed as the view is beautiful. Here, guests, sailors and locals meet over good food and drinks – from long, lazy lunches in the sun to late summer evenings by the sea.
The menu reflects the spirit of the archipelago: well-crafted dishes inspired by the sea and the Swedish summer. You’ll find timeless classics, seasonal favourites and grilled dishes made for sharing – always prepared with care, flavour and heart.
In your glass, you’ll find a mix of crisp wines, local brews and summery cocktails, all carefully selected to complement both the food and the setting.
Whether you stop by for a drink after the sauna, a spontaneous dinner or just to pause for a moment, the Bistro is where the day continues at an easy pace – where the sea, the scents and the sounds blend into something truly unique.
The Orangery
The Orangerie is our light-filled, green oasis on the west side of the hotel, a place to sit among lush plants, feel the sea breeze and watch the sun set over Sandhamn.
During the summer, the Wine Bar moves into the Orangerie, turning it into a lively meeting place with flavours and influences from around the world. The menu is created by Head Chef Thomas Omfors together with sommelier Joakim Fagerström, with a focus on small plates to share and wines carefully selected from both classic regions and smaller producers.
During the rest of the year, the Orangerie is used for selected occasions and events, such as grill evenings, wine tastings and seasonal dinners. Chef’s Table is also hosted here, offering an intimate dining experience where the kitchen takes centre stage. While the Orangerie is mainly open during the summer season, it continues to come alive throughout the year through carefully curated events. At any time of year, it invites moments where food, wine, community and setting come together.
Breakfast
Start your day at Sandhamn Seglarhotell with the scent of freshly baked bread and the sound of waves just outside. Our generous breakfast buffet offers both hot and cold dishes, prepared with care and inspired by the season.
Enjoy classics like scrambled eggs and bacon, freshly baked bread, seasonal fruit and yogurt, along with juices, tea and truly good coffee. During summer, you can take your breakfast out onto the terrace and let the morning sun warm your face, while autumn and winter invite you to slower mornings indoors, with the sea as your backdrop.
For us, breakfast is more than just the first meal of the day – it’s a moment to pause, breathe and enjoy.
Breakfast is served daily between 07:00 and 10:00.
For external visitors, the price is SEK 350 for adults and SEK 175 for children.

Culinary calendar
From winter skrei cod to late-summer crayfish, autumn oysters and Christmas favourites. Our culinary calendar follows the seasons and the traditions that bring us together around the table.
Throughout the year, we give select ingredients and much-loved dishes their moment. We celebrate the craft of cheesemaking, set the table for Midsummer and bring the flavours of the harvest to your plate. Each occasion has its own character, with good food and good company at its heart.
Gather friends for something you love, or discover a new favourite together. Join us for dinner, or let the occasion inspire a whole weekend on Sandhamn.
Christmas table with a golden touch
Our Christmas table is a tribute to Swedish tradition, with room for both the familiar and the new. Here, classic pickled herring, fish and seafood, cold cuts, and warm dishes meet an unusually wide range of plant-based alternatives — from “herring” made from aubergine to vegan meatballs and Janssons.
We finish with a cheese selection, desserts, and a generous candy table served with coffee. Welcome mulled wine and a coffee buffet are included.
