The venue features barista made coffee as well as many grab and go items. Opted for the full English breakfast and it was made to order. Eggs were tasty and the bacon and sausage were salty. The toast was good too. Latte was good. Nice layer of foam on top of a smooth shot of espresso. They also have bottles of water along with baked pastries available for purchase! There are tables to sit and a pager is provided when the food is ready!

Eateries in Newark and JFK could learn a few things from these folks.

This pleasant little summer cafe in a residential neighborhood of Helsinki is really a pleasant…read moreaddition to an already good coffee scene. It is in the basement of a house and has a few tables inside and plenty of seats outside, they serve excellent coffee under the supervision of the talented Finnish Barista Champion Kalle Freese. The coffee has been from Blue bottle in San Francisco but upon my last visit it was instead from Square Mile. Nice to see some variety in what is offered. When Kalle is working they do hand brewed coffee but there is also espresso based beverages as well as batch brewed filter coffee. They also have some wine on offer. The setting is very nice and relaxing and the service is pleasant albeit a bit slow. They do some very nice pastries and a real fresh and nice brunch with yogurt, fruit and granola, avocado on toast and a 63 degree egg. A place well worth visiting before they close at the end of Summer (hopefully they open next summer again).

It has gotten a fair amount for good publicity lately, and fair not, this gem also delivers. The atmosphere is happy and positive, and of course you get excellent coffee here. A café run by the passion for the art and making everyone happier deserves every one of the five stars. Any criticism? Not really. Arrive by bike, as there isn't much parking around. But even that is a positive, isn't it?

I took a quick cappuccino to fuel up before the flight, but for those inclined it's a full featured cafeteria with pastries, buns, sandwiches, drinks, etc. The coffee was ready quickly and the service was friendly and fast.

The menu changes every two weeks depending on what is fresh and available. While the food was excellent, what puts this restaurant at a five star level is the personalized service. It is a one man show in here - he is probably the owner, manager, and wait staff all in one. He came over to our table, had a small talk about our tastes, and suggested an excellent red wine to go with our meal. So far this is normal for most restaurants of this caliber. As we were finishing our meal, he came over and asked if we want dessert. I was hesitant and my husband was too full for dessert. However, Mr. All-in-one (I cannot remember his name) encouraged us to try the dessert and then brought us some dessert wine to try (on the house!). He explained to us how this particular wine pairs well with the dessert. The best part is that he genuinely wanted us to enjoy our meal and experience his wonderful hospitality. That alone puts this restaurant on the five star level. Service beyond excellence and the food is delicious! One of the highlights of our culinary tour of Helsinki.
