    Best burger I had during my recent visit to Helsinki! Wait, it was the only burger I had while…read morevisiting Helsinki. The taste, presentation & price made for an awesome experience. I ordered a Bacon Cheese Burger & received a perfectly medium cooked patty with a pile of tasty fries. The burger was seasoned well & cooked to perfection, I was quite pleased with the flavor & constitution of the entire thing. The textures of the soft bun with the crispy bacon & crunchy produce worked nicely with the grilled beef patty. The fries were also something to write home about. They were cooked to a beautiful golden crisp & salted generously. I washed the feast down with a couple mugs of a local tap beer called Karhu, it was a flavorful amber. Sports Academy only offers 5 beers on tap. But, a plethora of bottled beer is available. They also offer a decent selection of spirits for harder drinks. The venue could use a few more TV's considering it is a sports bar. The interior & bathrooms could use some updating. The bathroom was dingy & dirty. Head to the bar to place your order & be sure to grab utensils & condiments before returning to your table. The entire meal & drinks were a good value which was quite a surprise. I had read Finland was going to be the most expensive stop on my trip to Scandinavia & Russia. I would dine here again.

    If you want to get your burger and beer "on" while playing Texas Hold 'em/Blackjack this is the…read moreplace for you. There are plenty of big screen TV's to watch sports and there are plenty of beers on tap. This is a good place to stop by if you need a quick break from walking around downtown Helsinki. I recommend bringing your passport as that is the most common form of ID that is accepted for entrance. I would come back for some suds. Plus when it's cold in Helsinki you want to get inside quick, so stop on by!

    A basic sporty-style burger restaurant in Ainoa shopping mall. The burgers have lots of variation…read moreand are nice enough for their price range. I love their country-style fries & mayo. I go there sometimes with my friend who loves burgers - they have couple of salads etc. in their menu too, but I have tried only burgers. Service has been friendly but a bit slow. The atmosphere is slightly restless because of sport screens and tv's (I'm not a big fan of sports and tend to get hypnotized by moving pictures), but if you don't mind that, or even like sports (!) this is probably a nice, relatively calm and very civilized sports bar for you. This is not my favourite burger place on the world or even in Helsinki area, but it's definitely not the worst either. I will surely visit them again, but this is also because there aren't any other this kind of places in Tapiola. But, not bad, after all.

    Wanted to post this without a single star but unfortunately it's not possible…read more 6 of us gave another chance to this sports bar in Tapiola and ordered table full of food. Friend of mine ordered wings and realized only a few min after she had paid that she can't eat the blue cheese dressing which is served in a separate cup together with the wings. Changing the dip cost one euro extra...seriously? At this time there were still few tables before us to be served. Meaning the kitchen hadn't even started yet to prepare the dish.
