The story of Svartengrens

Svartengrens sits on the corner of Tulegatan 24 and Surbrunnsgatan, in a building designed by the architects Hagström & Ekman. The Mården pharmacy opened here in 1908, and its copper sign with a marten is still on the façade. The pharmacy moved out in 1995 and the space became Restaurang Mården.

Svartengrens took over in 2011. The restaurant is built around meat: most of it comes from small farms in the Stockholm archipelago and is dry-aged in house, and even the bacon and stocks are made from scratch. Because the producers are small, dishes can sell out. The bar mixes drinks with Swedish ingredients.

Sun on the terrace, according to Stoligt

Times look wrong, for example because the terrace is on the other side of the building? Fix the location in OpenStreetMap and Stoligt will follow at the next update.

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.
