Gustav Grill & Bar

Location & Atmosphere

Perched at the foot of Gustavbacken ski slope in Lindvallen, Sälen, Gustav Grill & Bar combines rustic mountain charm with a lively brewpub energy. Dark, rich furnishings create a warm, inviting space perfect for après-ski gatherings or relaxed dinners. The cosy lounge bar boasts Sälen's largest gin and tonic selection, while the main dining area hums with the sizzle of grills and chatter of skiers unwinding. Bread and pastries come fresh from their sister bakery Fjällbagarn, adding a homemade touch to every visit.

Cuisine & Menu Highlights

The kitchen focuses on straightforward, high-quality dishes made from scratch, often featuring local Swedish ingredients. Signature mixed grills showcase grilled ribeye, pluma pork from Swedish rapeseed-fed pigs, merguez sausage, and lamb, available for 1-5 people starting at 415 SEK. Lunch specials include BBQ beef burgers and daily offerings like the acclaimed räksmörgås—a prawn-loaded sourdough delight with mayo and egg. À la carte options span steakhouse classics, European barbecue, pub fare, and Scandinavian flavors. Vegetarians and vegans find welcoming choices, with most dishes adaptable to gluten-free needs.

Drinks & Brewery

Gustav Grill doubles as a brewpub, pouring exceptional beers from their on-site brewery alongside fine wines and an extensive bar menu. The lounge bar shines with gins and tonics, ideal for savoring mountain views. Live music and quiz nights add entertainment during peak seasons.
