Kompressor Tallinn

Locals' favourite pancake house

Aubrey from Tallinn

I'm Aubrey - an SEO Manager living in Tallinn, Estonia. I grew up in Hong Kong but fell in love with this lovely medieval city. I've been living here since 2016. Outside of work, I'm an avid traveller, an enthusiastic language learner and a Pokemon Go player. I love my city because it's always alive and awake no matter the time. It has a great energy and it has amazing, very friendly ...
"Kompressor in Tallinn offers a great variety of wonderful pancakes, both savory and sweet. Arrive early to avoid the crowds and enjoy a hearty meal!"

Kompressor is a legendary pancake house in Tallinn’s Old Town, known for its incredible selection of both savoury and sweet pancakes. Prices are very reasonable, especially for the portion sizes — you really get great value for your money here.

If you want to try more than one flavour, it’s best to share with friends.

The only downside is that Kompressor can get super busy, especially during peak hours, and there might be a bit of a wait. I recommend going right when they open at 11 a.m. to beat the crowd and enjoy a filling brunch without the wait.

For a hearty, budget-friendly meal in Tallinn, Kompressor is an absolute must!

Exquisite local and international restaurants, great coffee places and delicious dessert spots.

EVC Memorial

Perfect example of landscape design

"EVC Memorial", or the Victims of Communism Memorial, is about 10 minutes from the city center. It was only built recently, so it's still not well known!
