The vibe is perfect, the beer selection is wonderful, and the staff is very friendly and downright awesome. They have a great mix of local and not local beers and the prices are nice for being right in the city. Highly recommended. She Said: exactly what he said! And the food was good, too. Sadly, I can't remember the specifics of what we ordered because, well, beer. Potty Points: 5/5 I never waited for a potty and they were somehow always clean and well stocked!

A gorgeous bar in Helsinki with tons of craft beer from around the world and of course a good…read moreselection of local ones as well. The place is quite big and dimly lit inside. You order at the counter and pay at the counter as well. They have a small food menu which is ok nothing special. I tried a couple of Finnish beers and they were quite good. Also enjoyed some Finnish spirits which were recommended by the staff and they were good too. Service was very friendly and the bar staff were quite engaging. They also recommended some beers and they knew a lot about what was in house. I would happily come here again. It was recommended to me by a Finnish friend who lives in Germany and I am glad to have visited here.

They have free wireless Internet, so it's easy to come here after work and continue some unfinished work. It's a relaxed place and usually there's room to sit at your own table. The service is always friendly. I like it!

But the fact is this pub has the best selection of brews in Helsinki that I know of. And I don't mean just lots of different beers -- they are shooting for quality, not quantity. Saturday night with a few friends -- no coat check required, found a booth. This place had beers from two of my favorite SoCal craft breweries (Green Flash, Coronodo Brewing Company). I was speechless -- but perhaps the tasty, hoppy Idiot IPAs had something to do with that. I will absolutely be back here.

Decent selection and not to loud or crowded. Hard to find. Free wifi. We enjoyed our time hereeread more

BrewDog Helsinki is my favourite BrewDog bar so far. The best way I can describe is as Shredder's…read morehideout in the original Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles film: loads of young people (some wearing baseball caps back to front) in a colourful space, a droning rock soundtrack (beats MC Hammer!) and an explicit emphasis on fun. The fun is everywhere, from a large mock-up of VHS cases to the left of the bar, to the industrial-looking steps to nowhere that punters can sit on, to the cheeky message below a high window that states "This emergency exit may require Parkour." Unlike too many BrewDog bars in the UK, it's quite well lit too, making the whole experience less gloomy and instead uplifting. That's all backed up by really friendly staff, who were happy to point out local Finnish beer including an extraordinary one that tasted of ripe banana. There's also free wifi, the password seemingly the same as that found in other BrewDog bars.. The beer is expensive, no doubt, but that seems to be a Helsinki/Finland-wide thing rather than particular to BrewDog. Plus, unlike Bryggeri, you can taste the beer here before you buy it, which is certainly welcome.

My husband, the beer snob, who thinks nothing of dropping 5eur on a can of craft beer (yeah - a…read morecan) anxiously awaited the opening of this place like a child waiting on Father Christmas in Summertime. It was kind of sad and pathetic but it also gave him back his will to live, which I had taken from him some time ago. Thanks, BrewDog! His newfound vigor for life can be attributed to your presence just a three minute walk from our home. Score! This is the kind of bar I was missing after (I always mention it...) moving here from San Francisco, the land of beer and wine bars and craft/artisan/mixologized (insert anything really here). BrewDog is so awesome I wish they'd let me bring my baby here. Because if I they did, I'd be waiting outside their window right now, queuing up for one of their delicious craft ciders. On the topic of craft beer, they do it right and they have very knowledgeable bartenders to steer you in the right direction should you not be so knowledgeable. I am, my husband is, but we heard the experts dropping some education for the lesser-familiar several times last night. In the nice, helpful way - not the hipster-glare-y way that one may be accustomed to at some other choice spots. Great interior - very San Francisco, London, New York. Love the attention to detail but in a very Devil-may-care fashion, loads of seating, I think there's a pool table? (Ok. I was really intoxicated last time and sitting in a dark corner). The mood is congenial, people are in high spirits, the bar is hopping, and it is the least-Finnish bar I have been to in Finland. Which is to say: It's my new favorite. All Hail the Dog!
