Busy with all seating taken with the exception of high top window seats with a view. Ordered my usual cappuccino with lactose free milk. The croissant with raspberry filling caught my eye and it was delicious. Don't see this too often so glad I tried it. Cinnamon roll (Korvapuusti) was also excellent and I enjoyed my cappuccino. Friendly and helpful people behind the counter made for a great experience. Great vibe and coffee with interesting pastries are not to be missed!

The atmosphere is nice and warm - mainly thanks to the lovely owner! I love that their dog and children hang out at the café adding to the cosiness. At the back is a tiny flower shop - what a combo! They serve excellent teas and coffees, as well as light meals like salads and quiches. They also serve brunch on the weekends. I must mention also the cakes: almost everything is self made and absolutely delicious. The ones that are not self made are carefully picked and usually from small local businesses. So why 4 stars instead of 5? The meals are quite light and often some friends with bigger appetite are left a bit hungry. A heftier option would be appreciated.

My dish was quite plain, no major flavour and my friend said hers was a bit too salty for her taste. On the other hand their vegan gluten-free carrot cake was amazing! Huge piece too!

I had the great pleasure of stopping by Kuppi & Muffini on my recent trip to (super cool) Helsinki…read more It is a delightful cafe that was pleasantly full during our entire hour there. People casually came and went, enjoying a chat, or a book...a very good vibe indeed. First off, let me say -- Helsinki as a whole knows their smoothies and juices. Whoa! Heaven for you fruit drinkers out there. While I didn't indulge in any of the incredible looking sweet treats and cupcakes I did have a hankering for a smoooooooothie. I requested that the girl behind the counter recommend me something without banana and with zero hesitation she pointed me to the second one down (forgive my lack of memory on the Finnish word) that contained avocado, peanuts (!?), apples and other green things. It was MARVELOUS. Super smooth, very good balance and I very much enjoyed the WHOLE.THING. Beauteous, as you can see below. Avocado and peanuts? I'm a BELIEVER.

It's also fun to watch them preparing it. Would you like to have some pastry with your cappuccino or latte macchiato? Well, they have a big variety.

Anyway it is definitely a must for coffee lovers.
