From breakfast to à la carte

In the center of Jönköping, you’ll find Ester Kök & Bar. Part of the John Bauer Hotel Best Western, the restaurant offers both classic bistro dishes and an à la carte menu inspired by the Swedish countryside.

At Ester Kök & Bar, the menu changes with the seasons and focuses on carefully selected organic and locally sourced ingredients. The menu includes a bistro section with simpler, classic dishes like pizza and shrimp sandwiches, as well as an à la carte section featuring dishes inspired by Swedish nature.

The restaurant features a cozy food bar just steps from the bustling city streets, an enclosed balcony ideal for larger groups seeking privacy, and a banquet hall for birthday celebrations, weddings, or corporate events.

Breakfast buffet and lunch buffet

Ester Kök & Bar serves a well-stocked breakfast buffet daily. The buffet is always included for hotel guests but is also open to external visitors when space allows. During weekdays, a lunch buffet is offered with four different dishes: the daily special, the weekly fish, the weekly pasta, and the weekly vegetarian option, along with a comprehensive salad bar.
