Helsinki


In a long, split-level space with low lighting and a mix of social and intimate seating, this excellent pub serves superb ales, stouts and berry ciders from its microbrewery in Lahti. The highish prices keep it fairly genteel, and there's a minimum age limit of 20. It's right by Kamppi bus station.
