Very cozy inside (I mean tiny, of course) and pretty good carrot cake. It was winter time and there were plenty of tables available outside for the brave, but on that particular day we were not feeling it. We arrived early enough to find a table in the cozy, compact interior decorated with photos and paintings. Shortly after we got our order, the line outside was quite big, so I’d advise planning to go early too if you want to sit inside. You can also get items to grill over the fire (sausages and marshmallow for example) but we only saw one such fire and it was taken by a family. I of course got a cinnamon bun (which got progressively softer and sweeter as I bit more into it), meat pie from the apparently very well known Eromanga bakery (with a doughnut-like bread, which I had never tried before) and some coffee plus carrot cake. The cake, albeit tiny, was really good in my opinion, with delightful frosting, and not at all dry. Coffee was ok. It’s a bit on the pricier side, but nothing scandalous.

This is a gem in Helsinki city centre, just 3-min walk from the Sibelius Monument. We took a relaxed walk along the lakeside and were attracted by this red cottage house. We reached the cafe around noon time, but there were many guests already. The cafe was very small with limited indoor seating. If you can get a seat near the fire outside and don’t mind the birds flying around, it seems better to sit outdoor with fantastic lake views. We could see some guests having BBQ outside! There were canoes, row boats and kayaks for rental too. The staff were nice and friendly. The hot chocolate with cream (“kaakao” in Finnish) and the blueberry pie were so yummy! This cafe is just like a small vintage shop with unique decors and paintings. Even the washroom has very interesting decors! We love them very much. In Helsinki, such an expensive city, this cafe is great value for money. You can enjoy sunshine or sunset, lovely ambience and awesome lake views during sunny days!

One of the Best Cafes in Helsinki✨ You can take many great portraits outside of the cafe, thanks to its charming exterior. The design of the cafe is delightful, creating a cozy and inviting atmosphere. The food is fantastic, with a variety of options to satisfy any craving. For hot drinks, you can choose from coffee, chocolate, and tea. We tried the coffee and chocolate, both of which were excellent. Taking your coffee outside the entrance of the cafe allows you to capture some wonderful memories. The blueberry pie is exceptionally good and has become my favorite sweet treat in Helsinki. The meat pie eromanga including sausages is a must-try. The savory filling and perfectly baked crust make it a standout dish. Overall, this cafe offers a delightful experience with its delicious food, warm drinks, and picturesque setting. Whether you're looking for a place to relax or capture some beautiful photos, this cafe is a top choice in Helsinki.✨

Charming little cafe that we stopped off at on our final day in Helsinki. It’s very popular so there may be a queue out the door as there was for us so wrap up warm and be prepared to line up out in the cold. I’m happy to report that, just as the reviews had suggested, it was well worth the wait. We ordered hot chocolate and a hot blueberry drink, and some of the blueberry pie with vanilla sauce. The interior is very cosy and homely with few tables but fortunately for us, one freed up just as we collected our order. We sat on the wooden benches and thoroughly enjoyed our food and drinks. Everything was delicious. We also got some sausages (veggie options available) to roast on the fire pit outside. We sat around the fire for some time taking in the darkening blue sky and the views of the frozen sea. A lovely way to end our trip.

We were there last weekend. I have been in Finland for almost 2 years and many website, or people talked about this place is must visit place so I was so curious and yes it was really nice. The cafe is next to the beach so it would be so pretty in the summer! They have outdoor seat and indoor. I ordered hot choco with foam and a cinnamon bun meanwhile my boyfriend ordered the same drink and donut. He wanted to try the cinnamon bun but it has egg in it, and mostly all the pastries have egg in it which I would like to give some feedback making vegan pastry for some allergic people :). I tried the cinnamon bun and it was so soft and so goood (one of the best cinnamon bun I ever tried!) it melted in my mouth. The choco also so good, it reminds me of Milo xD. So now I understand why this cafe is a must visit while you are in Helsinki!

This was a lovely cafe with a good view and outdoor seating. They have the option of grilling sausages as well but it’ll take about 30 mins to set up the pit if it’s not already going. I had the salmon rice pastry (which I found rather unique and interesting) and my partner had the cheese and broccoli pie. They weren’t super cheap given the portion size but the flavour was good. I think it could’ve been better heated / prepared as they were heated for a couple of minutes in the microwave (the hallmark of a good pastry is it’s flakiness and we all know what happens when it’s popped in the microwave!). It’s also a very popular cafe with a line every so often, they may sell out of their popular items too (we weren’t able to grab ourselves a slice of blueberry cheesecake).
