On a clear day in June the terrace has sun 07:20–17:30, about 10 hours in total. In short: sun at lunch and afternoon sun.
The story of Prinsen
Prinsen has been at Mäster Samuelsgatan 4 since 1897, close to Stureplan, the Bibliotekstan shopping streets and the Royal Dramatic Theatre. Over the years artists, writers and actors have been among its regulars.
The dining room is classic, with a crystal chandelier and portraits on the walls. Downstairs, Ernest Hemingway sets the mood, with quotes on the walls and a zinc bar. The menu sticks to the classics: toast Skagen, biff Rydberg, wallenbergare and meatballs.

How Stoligt works it out
Every ten minutes we draw a line from each terrace toward the sun and check whether a building or hill is tall enough to block it. Building heights come from OpenStreetMap and ground heights from Lantmäteriet, the Swedish mapping agency. The times assume a clear day, so clouds are not included here. They are on the live map, which shows today's weather.
Trees, parasols and awnings are not in the model, and we don't know exactly where on the pavement the tables stand. Treat the times as an educated guess, often accurate to within ten minutes.
