In the Swedish industry codes (SNI 2025), cafés, pastry shops, pubs, pizzerias, takeaways and restaurants share one code (56.110); only bars that serve drinks alone (56.300) and mobile food stands (56.120) have their own. Businesses with the restaurant code are counted as a café or bar, or as fast food, when their name says so – café, konditori, pub, bar, pizzeria, kebab, burger, takeaway and the like – and the rest as restaurants. The split is therefore approximate.
