A Peruvian pisco bar in Södermalm
Pisco is one of Peru’s most iconic spirits, and at CHECA it is a natural part of the experience. Our bar brings together classic Peruvian cocktails, seasonal flavours and drinks designed to pair with food.
Located on Åsögatan 176 in Södermalm, CHECA is both a contemporary Peruvian restaurant in Stockholm and a pisco bar — a place for dinner, cocktails, wine and evenings shaped by Peruvian flavours.
The classic pisco sour
The pisco sour is Peru’s most famous cocktail: bright, fresh, aromatic and balanced between citrus, sweetness and the character of pisco. At CHECA, it is one of the drinks that best represents our bar — simple in appearance, but precise in balance.
It works beautifully before dinner, with ceviche, or as a way to start an evening around Peruvian food.
Maracuya sour, chilcano and Peruvian cocktails
Alongside the classic pisco sour, our drinks menu includes Peruvian cocktails such as maracuya sour and chilcano. The maracuya sour brings passion fruit into the pisco sour family, while the chilcano is lighter, refreshing and easy to enjoy with food.
The pisco section changes and develops with the restaurant, but the idea stays the same: cocktails with freshness, personality and a clear connection to Peru.
What to eat with pisco sour
Pisco sour is especially good with fresh, acidic and bright dishes. At CHECA, we often recommend it with ceviche, tiraditos and seafood, where the citrus and aromatics of the cocktail echo the flavours of leche de tigre.
For a fuller dinner, pisco cocktails can also lead into warm dishes such as lomo saltado, grilled octopus and seasonal Peruvian plates.

CHECA is open for dinner from Tuesday to Saturday. Join us for pisco sour, Peruvian cocktails, wine, beer and a menu built around contemporary Peruvian flavours.
