Porvoo isn't that big a place, especially on the off-season when it's colder. But it's a nice day…read moretrip from Helsinki, with a cute neighborhood and chapel. Walking around the town doesn't take too long (2 hours), so it's nice to have a place to kill some time/get out of the cold/heat, and grab some nice coffee/drink and kick up your legs. This GEM of a cafe/bar is right under the main overpass/road into town. The downstairs area is bustling and cozy, but the upstairs area is the really cute place so I definitely recommend everyone to go up there to check it out after you get your wine/coffee/etc. It's got a great wooden decor inside, a really romantic vibe, but I could see it getting my happening at night/on the weekend nights. There were seriously like 3 couples on coffee dates there. I've heard the coffee here is great but didn't have any, just had a nice glass of red wine. One thing I'd say is that it gets really crowded/long line when a big crowd walks in, they should probably figure out an easier way to serve people. BTW, this place was listed in Lonely Planet, and normally I don't love all their suggestions but this place is definitely worthy, especially for a smaller town like this.

It usually has raspberry jam encircled by a ring of icing on top.

It was a great place to stop and rest during our day trip to Porvoo.

It's…read morecalled the Cellar cafe and it's not a far walk over the bridge from where the primary parking lot is at the entrance to Provoo where the buses and cars park. The sign was clear and this spot was easy to find. They have the cutest little outdoor patio with about 10 tables. 5 on each side of door. A great spot to sit outside and people watch. Also of course the scenery is just lovely. I liked when you walk inside it really is like a cellar (hence the name). You walk down some steps that twist and it takes you to the main downstairs bar area where the cashier is with their little pastry and drink shelf. I was pleasantly surprised at how good the little snack bites looked. There were premade sandwiches, easy for on the go. They also had a few croissants and most impressive was their beautiful cakes! You could buy a slice. I regret not getting a slice but was watching my calories for the day. The day I came through they had carrot cake, mango cake, and blueberry cake. Yum. I ended up just ordering their recommended Somersby Cider. They had apple and pear, so I went with pear. Probably one of the best non-apple flavored ciders I've had in awhile. So refreshing! Loved the taste. Served in a wine glass with ice it was perfection. They also had coffees and lemonades here. As well as some beer and cocktails/mocktails. The gal working the register was super sweet and friendly. Also efficient and quick at getting your served and paid out at the main register. This place is a gem. Definitely stop by on your trip to Provoo for a snack and drink. Great patio and inside was cozy and cute enough, just a little too warm inside in the summer.

Its more of a place to stop by and have a drink/coffee and a snack !

It Is not so close to downtown, so if you happen to be a tourist it might be difficult to find it unless you are walking close the tourist office and art factory as it is just in the same area. However it is a nice spot to have a short break with some snack, coffee , tea or even beer. I go there quite often with my daughter, as the place is spacious and they have baby seats. If you happen to stay there a bit longer you can try out their board games available in one if the high tables. Really friendly and bilingual staff. Prices are just the same you probably find in any coffee place. Nothing out of this world. It is also very convenient for school meetings as some tables are long enough to provide sitting spots for 5-6 persons.

Far fewer tourists here, which is a plus for me (also a tourist). A wonderful team of ladies taking orders from their fully stocked refrigerated cases, where you pay, they fill your tray, then you select the seats you want. You can reserve seats like big upholstered chairs for two by a window. Our cafe seating was just fine. Ordered ham and cheese quiche plus a Karelian pastry with a rice-egg porridge in the middle. I liked it better than the quiche. It was so rich in flavor, you could probably only eat one. Buy more for later at home. The coffee was perfection and their soup-bowl sized cups were perfect for burying your face in each sip. If you are hitting old town, carve out an hour to savor this gem. Settle in, shut off those phones, and talk. Good gluten-free, dairy-free options!
