There are 82 active businesses in the category “Restaurant” in Skövde - 20.3 per 10,000 residents.

That is more than similar-sized areas (median 15.8 per 10,000). With the typical density you would expect about 64.

In the last 3 years 17 opened. Not available yet: closures are only known from 1 January 2024.

How cafés, bars and fast food are counted in Sweden

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.

Compared with Sweden

Restaurant in Skövde against all of Sweden. Annual-report figures are for 2025 (Skövde kommun), from 35 companies. Survival can't be calculated for Sweden yet: closures in Statistics Sweden's Business Register are only known from 1 January 2024.
