June/July is the peak season in Scandinavia for restaurants. I have never heard of a Nordic restaurant that closes in those months, although many close after August outside of the cities. June/July is when they make their money.

Definitely not what I experience in Stockholm, in July quite a few of the restaurants I tend to go are closed.
Many of my favorite lunch places in Stockholm closes some weeks over the summer, typically first weeks in August but earlier as well.

Lots of restaurants in that mainly cater to lunch guests close for at least a few weeks during those months, since 90+% of their customer base are away and they get very few tourists.
