Paper Mill Tallinn

Local Roastery and Cafe

"I enjoy coming here in autumn and winter as they have plenty of natural light on the ground floor, and you can just sit by the window and enjoy a good cup of coffee in a cosy setting."

Paper Mill Coffee is a stylish cafe in a historical building (previously a Paper and Cellulose factory) with an industrial design. They roast their own coffee beans that you can buy on the spot. So on your way from the main street to the cafe, you can already smell the aroma of freshly brewed coffee that greets you as you enter.

I enjoy coming here in autumn and winter as they have plenty of natural light on the ground floor, and you can just sit by the window and enjoy a good cup of coffee in a cosy setting.

Speaking of coffee, I like their House Blend, but you can always ask the staff for recommendations. The staff is knowledgeable and passionate about coffee and is eager to share their expertise.

Side note: Paper Mill Coffee also has a branch in the Viru Keskus food court.

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!
