Great wings and plenty of sauces&mdash;chipotle and hot garlic were solid picks. Got a cocktail to cool things down, worked well. Place gets busy fast, so expect a wait if you&#39;re there late.

The chai latte here is honestly the best I&rsquo;ve had in Finland. Proper spice balance, not too sweet, and you can tell they use good tea. I&rsquo;ve been a few times now and the cakes are always fresh. Plenty of gluten-free and vegan options too, which actually taste like something. Just wish they had a bit more seating.

The parmesan fries were the highlight for me&mdash;crispy and salty, perfect with the burger. Beef patty was juicy, though the bun got a bit soggy. Fun market hall spot to grab a quick bite.

Food was solid and the staff were friendly. Place was packed but our food still came fast. Cozy enough inside. 👍

Stopped by for lunch on a weekday. Place is a bit off the centre, but the walk isn&#39;t bad. Entrance is easy to miss, so keep an eye out. Once inside, it&#39;s surprisingly spacious, and the basement area has some quiet corners. Good spot if you need to get some work done or just want a break from the main streets. Service was fine, no complaints.

The wings were decent but the sauce was way too heavy. Fries ended up soaked in it. Vinegar taste was strong for me, though some folks might dig that.

Salmon soup was pretty but needed salt. Staff brought it right away though, nice of them. Decent price for a quick lunch spot.

Linda remembered our order from last time. That personal touch means a lot. Fresh ingredients too, you can tell they care about quality.

Weekend brunch was solid. Pancakes and scrambled eggs done right, bottomless coffee kept coming. Place is tiny and loud, but the staff were friendly enough. Just book a table first.

Stopped here before catching my train and honestly it was perfect timing. Got a chai latte and it was properly spiced, not too sweet. The cake display looked so good I almost grabbed one to go. Place was busy but chill enough to just sit and scroll. Would come back if I&rsquo;m in the area again.

Came here on a weekday evening with a couple of friends. We ordered the larb and it was properly tangy and fresh, not too heavy. The place was pretty quiet so we could actually talk without shouting. Service was friendly but a bit slow when we wanted the bill. Would come back for the som tam though.

Came here for lunch and the indoor patio caught me off guard&mdash;nice little spot to sit back. Staff didn&rsquo;t waste time even though it was packed. Got the pasta, it was decent. Nothing crazy but I&rsquo;d stop by again if I&rsquo;m in the area.

The vegetarian menu was decent &mdash; they even made a vegan dish that wasn&#39;t listed. Nice to see that kind of flexibility.

Stopped by for a quick drink and ended up staying longer than planned. The staff actually knew their stuff when I asked about the beer list. Tried one of their own brews, pretty solid. Place was a bit quiet for a Saturday but that worked fine. Would come back if I&#39;m in the area again.

Decent little pub with a good rotating beer list. Bartender let me taste before pouring, which was nice. Gets pretty busy on weekends, so come early if you want a quiet spot.

The vegetarian mezze was really fresh, especially the baba ganoush and tabbouleh. Lentil soup with warm bread felt like a proper comforting start. Service was friendly, and I liked the Arabic-inspired decor&mdash;made the place feel cozy. Just wish the seating was a bit more comfortable, but it was fine for a casual meal.

The vegan stuff here surprised me. Veggie burger and the cheese &#39;n chips were actually tasty, not just an afterthought. Place has a cozy but kinda punk vibe. Portion size was decent for the price, left full without feeling ripped off. Staff were friendly enough. Would pop back in if I&#39;m in the area again.

The steak was actually really good, cooked just how I asked. But the service... yeah, it was a bit all over the place. One guy was super attentive, then another basically walked past us a few times. Felt a little weird for what we paid. Not mad about it, just not sure if I&#39;d rush back.
