The Bishops Arms pub

The Bishops Arms is a prominent Swedish gastropub chain that was founded in 1993, with its first location opening in Västerås. The brand was established with the goal of bringing an authentic British pub experience to Sweden, emphasizing a vast selection of draught beers, single malt whiskies, and traditional pub food in a decor characterized by mahogany and leather.

The chain has expanded across Sweden, often located in connection with Elite Hotels. Since its inception, the brand has been under the ownership of Elite Hotels of Sweden, founded by Bicky Chakraborty. As of 2026, it remains a core part of the Elite Hotels portfolio, maintaining its high standards for craft beverages and a welcoming atmosphere in numerous Swedish cities.
