We had a good vegan brunch with my family. There was a plenty of interesting and tasty salads, pies and pastries. I also loved the juices, lemonade and some Persian juice with the taste of honey and zahram. The place was suitable for kids and even my father enjoyed the good vegan food although he is a meet lover. The stuff was really friendly and the atmosphere was warm and relaxed. I'm so happy nowadays you can find places like this in Helsinki. I truly recommend!

Apparently it's totally Vegan - not usually something we search out as we love asserting dominance at the top of the food chain but we found all we needed and it was very unpretentious. Lots of fresh options including juices, yogurts (or something like it), pastries and sweets a plenty. The little guys had hit chocolates and my best half and I had some lovely white and green teas. The art atop the ho-chos was fabulous and our teas were steeped just right! The bathrooms are quaint but worked when all three little dudes needed to pee and the place had easy access for a stroller. The baristas were super chill and the place just had a wonderful vibe overall! Absolutely a spot you should check out!

But not just the location between modern apartment houses right next to the sea makes Faro special. The big glass windows surrounding the restaurant make it bright and fit perfectly with the simple and modern interior. And also the food does its part to complete the picture. For reasonable prices you get really nice dishes here during lunch hours. Every day they have one fish, one meat and one veggie dish as well as a steak of the day on their list. A small but really good salad bar is also included.

Especially the appetizer was ridiculously small with maybe 50g of duck divided into 3 pieces and some green stuff as decoration. The main (fish, you can choose between fish and steak) was bigger, as expected. The dessert was again on the smaller side. Flavours were lacking, for instance in the risotto that was served with the fish.Service was polite but I think the place could benefit from one person more in the staff. All in all a decent visit but not anything I would travel for.

This is a review for the restaurant/bar and not the sauna area. Loyly is mentioned in basically…read moreevery recent article on places to visit in Finland. The photos of Loyly from a NYT travel article were part of what prompted me to include Finland on a recent trip around Scandanavia. We went on a grey, early Fall day, so I can't speak to what it's like in the summer, but I thought it was over-hyped. From the moment you enter it is very chaotic, probably because it is on every traveler "must visit" list. The bar area is right at the entrance and it is loud and crowded. It would probably be better on a warm summer day when everyone is outside instead of in the doorway. Loyly has three separate areas: the sauna area, the bar/casual outdoor dining, and the restaurant. We opted for the outdoor dining because we did not make reservations and the restaurant was already full very early in the evening. I didn't realize in advance that there are a few items on the restaurant menu that are not on the outdoor dining menu, namely the reindeer, which is what we were mainly interested in trying. We ended up with the elk meatballs and the salmon soup, which were both delicious and probably worth the high-ish price. I can't say I would be running back, but it's worth trying once. I would opt against the sauna area though, as it looked just as crowded as the restaurant and not at all relaxing.

I normally would do coffee and they had some great options but was feeling the bubbles. Nice flaky pastry that you can layer through, my favorite kind. Chill atmosphere, lots of people working or Sunday morning coffee folks. Family's out . Mixed bag of people. Nice clean place though and great pastry option. Some savory breakfast type stuff too.
