It was good but I probably would have loved it much more with the ice cream. Service was slow but I've come to expect that in Finland. The staff spoke decent english The biggest problem / issue is the restaurant is tucked away quite a bit away from downtown. Probably a good 10-15 minute walk from the Central Train Station and far from other tourist locations. If this was closer to city center it would be a hot location.

We had just gotten off the train that came from the airport and the plane that came from Brussels…read morevia Frankfurt. It was a long day and the night was upon us and we were getting hungry. As we left the train and headed towards the station, I spotted the Aseman Wursti. It didn't look ideal but as I said, hunger had set in and we didn't want to risk not eating that evening. Let me tell you; it was really good! We started with our coffees, which were pretty decent; then ordered the all-day breakfast. It was kinda like an English breakfast but not exactly. The difference was some relish on the plate. There was the traditional sausage, bacon and egg as well. I'll just have to dig out a photo and post it. Yes, I take all day breakfast photos. The place looked quite popular and all the food looked like nothing complicated but tasty. They also had beer!

This is a tough call, but their neighboring rival La Torrefazione in Kluuvi is still the best in terms of overall quality. Kuuma has the best takeaway cups though - much better than anywhere else. However, they need to try harder to reach the level of other places. Coffee is good, attitude seems complacent. Go here for excellent takeaway coffee, but go somewhere else if you intend to sit down for a more pleasurable, customer-focused experience. Kuuma = great takeout coffee, but not worth a stay.

I enjoyed this place! Came for dinner and all of us were very hungry. We got 3 pizzas and a salad,…read moreand let me say, there were no leftovers! Our favorite pizza was classic marinara with chorizo. The white pizza with mushrooms and truffles was lighter but needed a touch of finishing oil. For the salad, you can choose two components to add in. We choose chicken and avocado. And the avocado had some kind of great whipped texture to it. There were a lot of vegetarian options and the cafeteria style eating made it a less formal setting. Check it out!

They have some of the yummiest Irish coffees around and there is always a cheerful vibe. In two years, I have yet to eat the food but I will update when I have! Weekends and holidays are good times to avoid Carusel as the restrooms are packed and the cafe itself is overrun and crowded. I love nice quiet weekday mornings/early afternoons for working from here. Friendly, lively, and still calm enough to be able to get things done. Wifi is great and again: the views can't be beat. I strongly suggest getting there before 11 to secure a nice seat by the window.

There were about 10 tables (mostly small tables but you can combine for larger groups). Very relaxed vibes. You order at the counter. If there's no seats available, take out seemed very popular here as well! We got their salmon soup lunch special and cinnamon roll, and a vanilla/raspberry danish Danish (~$4) was a fluffy cardamom brioche bread topped with a generous amount of raspberry jam and vanilla custard. It might've been a bit too much jam, but scoop some off and it was delicious. Bread was soft and fluffy. And almost melts in your mouth. Cinnamon rolls (~$4) were extra fluffy and had a subtle cardamom hit that made the rolls extra cozy. Definitely on the larger side, so id recommend sharing. Salmon soup is a Finnish specialty and perfect on a cold winters day. It came with a fresh slice of bread and butter. The soup had 3 big tender pieces of salmon, potatoes, onions, and dill swimming in a creamy fish broth. Delicious and hit the spot! For ~$15, it was a great lunch! It seems like their lunch specials change daily, but you can't go wrong with anything here!
