Põhjala Tallinn

Best brewery and tap room in Estonia

Diana from Tallinn

About me My name is Diana, I was born and raised in Tallinn. First of all I love food, so most probably my articles will be about that. I work in internet advertising and am fond of photography, film and my black cat Alejandro. I love to travel but even my home country has a special place in my heart with its forests and bogs. Why Tallinn Tallinn is small but ...
""Põhjala" Tap Room is in my opinion one of the best places to have beer & breakfast in Tallinn & Estonia right now. I recommend it for private events, too!"

Põhjala Tap Room is one of my favorite places to have breakfast and beer right now. Not necessarily all at the same time, but on Sunday they serve breakfast all day long ;)

The bar has 24 Põhjala and guest beers on tap, paired with Texas BBQ, with vegetarian options also available. On the ground floor, you can buy the best and freshest selection of Põhjala beer to go in their beer and merch shop (glasses, hoodies, etc) The brewery has tours in Estonian, English as well as in Finnish and Russian upon request. Check their website for times. If you have some celebration or treat yourself day, there is a cool private sauna for rent that can host up to 8 people.

The building itself deserves attention and admiration as it is situated in a former factory built in 1914. Do not miss this new gem in Kalamaja situated a bit North from famous Teleskivi.

Pierre Chocolaterie

Secret corner in old town

Step into Pierre Chocolaterie at the charming Masters’ Courtyard of local artisans. It's where my heart was stolen by a truffle filled with gorgonzola cheese.

Hidden beach in Põhja-Tallinn

Pikakari is a small sandy beach on the very end of the Paljassaare peninsula. It's not well-known, and I love it for some nature hikes...
