Kahvitupa Laurentius — Restaurant in Helsinki sub-region

Italian cuisine in picturesque nature!

It’s our new go-to place on weekends! It sounds unassuming but the quality of the different foods ( pasta, salads and Neapolitan pizza ) is superb! So is the selection of coffees and quaint deserts + now in summer time there is a great gelato ice cream van right outside.

You can sit inside in the beautiful old wooden house or outside on plenty of wooden tables and benches. Atmosphere is rustic and extremely well maintained and clean place.

The church right next door also usually has some festivities on the weekends and you can go for a nice stroll in the relaxing nature around after eating.

Service is really efficient especially because there are many people who come there but they can handle it so queue time really has never been longer than 30 minutes (mostly shorter!). It seems family owned by real Italians and they speak both excellently Finnish and English as well, they are also very...

This is Italian Finnish cafeteria, pizza restaurant, small cabin near cemetery and Pyhän Laurin kirkko. Owners are Italians and you definitely can sense it :D Here you can listen fluent Italian and Finnish mixed together, sense the passion and 2 different cultures together. So, if you wish to have silence "traditional" Finnish service, without colours, don't go here. But if you wish to taste absolutely amazing Italian gelato, pizza, cakes, take a small moment of your holiday from every day life, well this is your place indeed! Feel the family together in kitchen, taste of passion in cakes. Prices might be bit up in some cases, like gelato,but taste it! You won't complain afterwards :D ;) This is a fresh wind in middle of historical part of Vantaa. Nothing to do with Vantaa history tho, but just lovely, lovely place. ...Make me wonder, do you need bigger place for you at some point? :D Love to visit...

The place is quite nice. The food is awesome, and the service was good, very nice personnel.

I’ve been twice, first time for pizza, it was very good and fairly priced 15-20 euro.

Second time I went for brunch. I found it quite overpriced if compared to high quality brunch places which can be much cheaper.

And also, I should mention that the facilities seem to be insufficient as well as the staff. As a result the place is quite crowded with little room to walk, empty water dispensers, no glasses, etc. you get long queues (20+ mins) to order and also to access the toilet. Tables outdoors are not very comfortable and they definitely could use some umbrellas or shades cause if it’s sunny, sitting out there is unbearable after a short time.

Lots of room for improvement, especially given that...
