Linköping’s cozy study & hangout spots

Are you tired of university halls, the library, and your student apartment? Are you longing for a really good cup of coffee to keep you alert now that you’re gaining new knowledge? Then maybe it’s time for a change of scenery in your studying.

In Linköping, we have plenty of cozy and creative cafés where you can get back to your study flow. Pack up your laptop, connect to Linköping’s Wi-Fi, and enjoy a fika while you see the end of your assignment. We’ve gathered some lovely tips on study-friendly cafés in town so you can easily find today’s office.

For those who prefer peace and quiet

If you are someone who appreciates a calm environment when you study, there are many options in Linköping! For example, you can treat yourself to a bun at Babettes kafferi och bageri, which in 2023 won the Swedish Championship in food craft for its incredible buns. There you will find large spaces and plenty of seating.

At both Melins Café and Stadsmissions Café you can sit among open areas and treat yourself to everything from fika to light lunches. Maybe this is where you’ll come with your next group project? For those who feel like venturing outside central Linköping, we can recommend both Dahlbergs Café in Gamla Linköping and Bostället vedugnsbageri.

For those who perform best in hustle and bustle

You might feel that sometimes you need a bit of activity around you during intense study periods. For a book enthusiast, perhaps Linköpings bokhandel might be a good place for a study session. Here, in addition to studying and having a coffee, you can buy new books.

Linköping’s own Simons Rosteri & Bageri is an intimate place offering incredibly good coffee and lunch. Here, you might need to be early to get a spot, and also make room for others during lunchtime. Not surprising at a place with such a pleasant environment and selection.

In the middle of the city, you will find Linds, Espresso house and Waynes Coffee. Many come here for a shopping fika, and just imagine how accomplished you will feel. For that, we think you deserve an extra cup of coffee.

For those who feel most comfortable at home on the couch

Home sweet home. Sometimes there’s no better place than the couch, and we get that. But don’t forget to treat yourself to some study snack time. All the places mentioned above have great fika to bring home, but also Bageri Normandie on Torggatan and Dolce Vita in Vallastaden probably have something to satisfy your sweet cravings!
