St. Patrick (Merivälja) Tallinn

Sea view restaurant

Dmitri from Tallinn

About me IT professional and freelance photographer. For mostof my life I’ve lived in Tallinn with some relatively short periods away (Several years in Tartu, one in Võru, and a couple of years in Arabia, in Yemen). Although I was born in Kaliningrad (Königsberg), I have never spent more than three months in a row there – my parents moved to Estonia just before my first birthday...
""St. Patrick (Merivälja)" in Tallinn is an Irish restaurant to consider when looking for a nice dining place. It has a nice view on the beach..."

When looking for a nice dining place with a sea view, St. Patrick's in Pirita is definitely one to consider. It's located right by the main city beach and probably offers the best chance to watch the sunset on the Baltics while enjoying a good meal at a reasonable price accompanied by a pint of draft Guinness. Generally, it's not the only St Patrick's in Tallinn (another four are located in Old Town), but this one is definitely my favorite. If you are planning to pay a visit, I would strongly recommend you reserve a table in advance – even though it's pretty spacious and quite far away from city center, the best seats near the windows are usually busy.

Another piece of practical advice – it's worth checking the current status of Pirita beach before going to St. Patrick's. When it's green and it's hot enough for sunbathing personally I try to keep away – the whole area is too crowded. On the other side – the view in any case is worth the effort.

Seaplane Harbour

Where kids play and adults rest

Seaplane Harbour Museum is a joyful spot for families. Kids love the play zone, hidden ship mouse doors and wave room. It's a lot of fun even for grown-ups!

Hell Hunt

Probably the best pub in town

"Hell Hunt" is my go-to option when I just can't come up with any ideas of where to go for a drink or food in Tallinn. A chaotic, cheerful pub/restaurant.

Boheem Kohvik

Nice place for dinner
