While in Provoo, Finland I loved being able to stop at this cafe for a quick rest and drink. It's called the Cellar cafe and it's not a far walk over the bridge from where the primary parking lot is at the entrance to Provoo where the buses and cars park. The sign was clear and this spot was easy to find.
They have the cutest little outdoor patio with about 10 tables. 5 on each side of door. A great spot to sit outside and people watch. Also of course the scenery is just lovely. I liked when you walk inside it really is like a cellar (hence the name). You walk down some steps that twist and it takes you to the main downstairs bar area where the cashier is with their little pastry and drink shelf. I was pleasantly surprised at how good the little snack bites looked. There were premade sandwiches, easy for on the go. They also had a few croissants and most impressive was their beautiful cakes! You could buy a slice. I regret not getting a slice but was watching my calories for the day. The day I came through they had carrot cake, mango cake, and blueberry cake. Yum.
I ended up just ordering their recommended Somersby Cider. They had apple and pear, so I went with pear. Probably one of the best non-apple flavored ciders I've had in awhile. So refreshing! Loved the taste. Served in a wine glass with ice it was perfection. They also had coffees and lemonades here. As well as some beer and cocktails/mocktails.
The gal working the register was super sweet and friendly. Also efficient and quick at getting your served and paid out at the main register. This place is a gem. Definitely stop by on your trip to Provoo for a snack and drink. Great patio and inside was cozy and cute enough, just a little too warm inside in the summer. read more
