What's In Store

Sweden Food Court Menu

Costco Sweden is the new kid on the Nordic block — one warehouse, opened in 2022, already drawing crowds from across the Stockholm metro area.

The food court keeps the core lineup but adds unmistakably Swedish touches, including a meatball sub that puts this place in direct competition with a certain other Swedish bulk retailer whose name rhymes with "idea."

Locations: 1 warehouse (Arninge, north of Stockholm — opened 2022)

Sweden-Specific Items

Notes

  • One location so far, but busy enough to suggest expansion is coming
  • The IKEA comparison is unavoidable — both offer meatballs and cheap hot dogs. Costco's sub is more substantial; IKEA's plate is more traditional. Choose your fighter.
  • 15 SEK hot dog is remarkably cheap — a gas station hot dog runs 35-45 SEK
  • 25 SEK kanelbulle undercuts most Stockholm cafés. Fika culture runs deep, and a good cinnamon bun is non-negotiable.
  • Popular since opening — Swedes took to bulk buying with the calm efficiency of people who've been stocking up for long winters for centuries
