The best coffee at the airport and not only due to lack of better options. Swedish micro roaster…read moreJohan & Nyström added their second coffee place in Helsinki at the airport, just outside the SAS lounge. They offer 2 options for hand brews (usually one African and one from South America or Asia) as well as espresso based and batch brew. The staff here are perhaps not the same type of experts as at the showroom they have in the center but still can manage a good cup of coffee. I usually opt for Aeropress as it is difficult to screw that up and the beans used are good. Prices are a bit on the high side but it is after all an airport so I am just glad that they opted for a quality addition to the selection. I actually usually think this airport location beats the one in Terminal 2 in Stockholm but it is perhaps not as good as the Terminal 4 one in Stockholm. That said it is my go to place for coffee and sandwiches when at the airport in Helsinki.

Finland drinks a LOT of coffee. They drink more coffee per capita than any other country in the…read moreworld. The fact that Starbucks is representing Finnish coffee culture is kinda sad. There's much better coffee houses in Helsinki, making much better coffee. I've always thought that SBUX coffee was overly roasted, burned, and acidic. On the plus side, this is an expansive Starbucks in the Vantaa Airport. The place is big- there's a huge seating area that's been branded with SBUX posters and their type of furniture, it has no real connection with the coffee shop itself. Travelers have (and should have) no problem setting up camp on their comfortable easy chairs and sofas. There's outlets to charge your gadgets, and the place is well lit and safe. It's located right by the place where people end up once they've cleared customs, and where you can get your VAT refunded.

They open at 0630. My flight leaves at 0630. The staff that was there let me in before they…read moreofficially opened so l could get a souvenir mug from Helsinki. Love this place. Thank you Finland!!!
