Visited several times during my stay in Sweden- lots of interesting boutique shops and cosy cafes. Well worth a look- with everything from heart-shaped goods, an olive oil shops, an extensive spice/tea store and of course plenty of cinnamon buns. Very picturesque- an escape from the city.

Just love Haga! An echanted little piece of Göteborg. Lots of small shops, all with personalities and interesting things to see and buy. Very friendly people and just beautiful surrounding with old building and cobble stones streets. Great small restaurants and bakeries. A must visit if you ever go to Gothenburg.

I still often return to Haga even after having spent almost two years in Gothenburg because of its special atmosphere that makes me feel joyful even on a bad day. Immediately after seeing those nice old houses I start smiling. Haga is full of wonderful cafes and shops where everyone can find something nice. I love to share a big... More

Local tourist office tries to sell it as a picturesque neighborhood. It's just a little boring grey area, with poor cafés, no real bar ans 1 good restaurant. Stores are not worth visiting either.

Must take a stroll down Haga Nygata street. It does feel old and cozy, without the glam of all things touristy. Small, dimmed lights, small cafes and boutiques. It has its charm.

Loved the little area of Haga, where cobbled streets are lined with little wooden houses in old-style fashion. Traditional shops and arty little cafes are dotted around the place, and it really is worth the short walk to get there, just to soak up the atmosphere.

The Haga district is amazing. Walking through those tiny streets, you feel like you travelled back in time. There are adorable little design shops, second hand boutiques, antiquaries and coffee shops along the streets. You'll even find Sweden's (apparently) biggest Kanelbullar here - don't miss them!
