Gustav Cafe Kristiine Keskus — Restaurant in Tallinn

A cafe inside Kristiine Keskus. We checked out the prices of other cafe's here too and to our surprise, this was reasonably priced. Stylish cafe with a great atmosphere. Beautiful cakes and other delicious desserts. The Kaakao (Chocolate) was good. And so was the Mango-cheese cake. The blueberry-joghurt pannacotta cake was really good. Both desserts were beautifully made. A feast for both your eyes and taste buds. Latte coffee was tasty and just the right temperature. Coffee, chocolate and both pastries cost 12.30€.

We were in shock and not knowing what to do, we continued with the request, totally embarrassed, and sat down at the table. We count the minutes to finish the snack and leave.

I do not recommend this location because of the lack of...

I used to come to this kohvik several times a week. Sometimes I would work on my laptop for a few hours , never more than four. One day, I stayed longer, but even then I left during lunch to eat elsewhere and returned later, placing an order each time. Usually, the staff is friendly and welcoming.

However, today was disappointing. A different staff member, an Estonian woman, approached me and said, “You’re with a laptop, right? You can’t stay all day because we have many customers.” The irony is that in all the time I’ve been coming here, I have never once seen the place full or even 80% busy, during WORKDAY.

After this experience, I no longer feel comfortable here and won’t...
