Why are shopping and fika worth writing about? Because successful shopping means your blood sugar is exactly right. And/or that the companion who doesn't want to shop in the same category as you has something else meaningful to do while you calmly try things on, pick them up, feel them and ponder.
How lucky that there are shops on the Bjäre peninsula that have understood this and offer the combination of shopping and fika.
Shopping and fika tips
Butikerna på Gården lies in the middle of the Bjäre peninsula between Torekov and Båstad. Here you'll find Tant Grön, a delicatessen where you can taste cheeses and geek out over olive oils, and also grab a coffee. There's also Elin & Arvid, a men's and women's clothing and lifestyle shop with a classic style.
Båstad Fromagerie is in the heart of Båstad in Designgården, always wanting to offer their customers the best in artisan cheeses. They carefully select their cheeses and take pride in sharing knowledge about cheese and drink.
Vita Snäckan in the heart of Båstad has a summer café in the courtyard. That way, anyone wanting to try on women's clothing gets some peace while their companion munches ice cream or sips coffee at a comfortable distance.
For several years, the courtyard of Bjäre Bokhandel has had a beloved summer café with the feel of an oasis and a calm retreat. Here you sit under the walnut tree and enjoy your newly bought book from the beautiful bookshop, or wait patiently for whoever is shopping up a storm inside.
Have a fika at the cosy Chocolaterian with wondrous pralines and a magical view over Laholm Bay. Combine it with a visit to Butik Norrviken full of beautiful things — a mix of Laserow's antiques, own-designed products and other lovely, beautiful brands.
