For some reason there are three places with the same name on Yelp…read more.. Anyways, came here for a tea and a cookie while waiting to check in for our airbnb. Service is friendly and fast, and there's plenty of delicious looking cakes. Wish I got to try some of them.

A great stop off for coffee & treats if you're in the neighborhood!…read more We stopped here for a quick take away coffee before we headed off to see some sights, but we succumbed to some pastries as well after seeing them in the display cases. Delicious! The strawberry croissant-like thing on the counter was particularly good - there was a slight sugary glaze on the berries that made them utterly delectable. Prices were fair, ok for Helsinki standards (1,95 for the large strawberry pastry), and the coffee was decent as well. There was also a nice selection of options for coffee fixings out on the counter - different milks and creams, and both white and brown sugar. Service was a little slow as there was only one person working, but certainly not the worst compared to some other places in the city. If you're walking by, don't hesitate to stop by and get a little sugar or caffeine derived energy!

Best coffee I've had on this side of the Baltic Sea. I've had both their lattes and mochas-…read moregenerally well crafted, every time. There's usually only one shop keep so if the line builds up, be patient. Lattes are no cheaper here than, say, Starbucks, but trust that you're paying for quality. Plus points for having free after coffee mints for free!

Have you ever had chai latte with mango flavor? No? Then you should try one at Caffi in…read moreLasipalatsi. The small shop offers not only great coffee and tea products from all over the world. The friendly staff also happily prepares the hot drinks for you right away. Enjoy them on the go or make yourself comfortable on their cozy bench. And what about something sweet with your coffee?

Why not go for a coffee and maybe a small snack somewhere in the center? One recommendable place is…read moreKiasma Café. The centrally located café at the entrance of Kiasma Museum for contemporary art has its very own atmosphere. The interior is simple and just gets some color through the neon green plastic chairs at each of the metal tables. The big windows allow you to look towards Lasipalatsi and Mannerheimintie. So it's a good location to sit down and watch people, cars and busses passing by on the street. The stuff is friendly and the food is good. You should try the sandwich with traditional bread from Lapland. It's delicious. And while you are there why not also take a look at the recent exhibition of Kiasma?

I had the great pleasure of stopping by Kuppi & Muffini on my recent trip to (super cool) Helsinki…read more It is a delightful cafe that was pleasantly full during our entire hour there. People casually came and went, enjoying a chat, or a book...a very good vibe indeed. First off, let me say -- Helsinki as a whole knows their smoothies and juices. Whoa! Heaven for you fruit drinkers out there. While I didn't indulge in any of the incredible looking sweet treats and cupcakes I did have a hankering for a smoooooooothie. I requested that the girl behind the counter recommend me something without banana and with zero hesitation she pointed me to the second one down (forgive my lack of memory on the Finnish word) that contained avocado, peanuts (!?), apples and other green things. It was MARVELOUS. Super smooth, very good balance and I very much enjoyed the WHOLE.THING. Beauteous, as you can see below. Avocado and peanuts? I'm a BELIEVER. Kuppi & Muffini & Colleen C -- we go together. *closes at 6pm weekdays.

For breakfast you can order oatmeal, a smoothie and of course, a cupcake (in two sizes), I vaguely remember they might even have sandwiches, but I always go for a small cupcake and oatmeal - delicious. They also serve excellent lunch salads, I recommend the avocado one!

This Fazer Cafe was located in City Centre. There is a lot of seating here…read more We tried this pistachio creme puff thing and a chocolate pastry. The pistachio thing tasted like cream on top of a roll of something. I thought it was not bad but the creme was not sweet at all which was interesting. The roll tasted more like straight up bread which was not what I was expecting! The chocolate pastry thing was small but very dense. That one was more sweet. The inside was very moist. There is also free water that you can get on the side as well.

A friend and I stopped into Fazer to get a coffee. It seemed nice and clean. The coffee was just…read moreok, it seemed like a latte made from an automatic machine. I don't think I would go out of my way to come here again.
