Feel free to come visit me in the countryside at my farm. I have a cute little riverside guest house that I rent.

Food Scene

This is a fabulous little bistro, and when I say little, I mean little. You’ll certainly need a booking. They have a little bit of everything, which is inspired by the owner’s extensive world travels, and they change their menu weekly.

Great Italian restaurant located in a medieval cellar. Nothing fancy, just nice and simple food, reasonable prices (especially for the Old Town). House wine is not bad either.

This place has a bit of every type of Asian cuisine you could imagine. I’m suggesting, not for the food (the dishes are ok, order with caution), but they do make fabulous cocktails and the atmosphere is, well, unique.

This huge restaurant is located above the Beer House on Dunkri, so unless you know what you’re looking for, you might miss it. Come here just for the cheese! They make their own fresh mozzarella, burrata, etc. You can also buy some to take home with you. Also, they sometime have their goats (yes, real, live goats) wandering through the restaurant.

Drinks & Nightlife

Põhjala is one of Estonia’s best-known craft brewers. The Tap Room has a huge selection their own beers and others on tap. The small menu focuses mainly on BBQ, but offers some of the best BBQ I’ve had in Tallinn. Well worth a detour.

This is one of Tallinn’s longest running pubs. Nothing fancy here, but they do have Guinness on tap (my favourite beer) and selection of their own brews. I always order the spicy cheeseballs as a snack.
