Although you may easily mistake it for a bicycle workshop and simply walk straight past it, Ratas&Kohv is actually a cosy bicycle-themed café. Located a 20-minute bus ride from the Tallinn city centre, you can relax and enjoy a great cup of coffee and snacks while staying away from the tourist crowds in a quiet atmosphere.
In addition to its café offerings, Ratas&Kohv doubles as a bicycle shop, where you can observe bikers coming in for repairs or just to chat. It also has a small stage in the corner, which occasionally hosts music and other cultural events. This combination of coffee culture, bicycle enthusiasm and cultural activities creates a strong vibe of community and makes it a unique coffee experience.
For those who enjoy an afternoon walk, Ratas&Kohv is also a perfect stop before or after a leisurely stroll in the nearby Tallinn Hippodrome and Merimets, located just across the road.
