Fodor's Expert Review Café Ursula

Seaside Helsinki Café

Located by the sea, with views across to Suomenlinna, this café has been a favorite with locals since the 1950s. They come for the coffee, ice cream, pastries, and light lunches that include soups and salads made with traditional Finnish ingredients and to sit on the terrace on sunny days after seaside strolls in and around nearby Kaivopuisto Park. The lunch menu, which changes daily, includes fresh fish specialties, fish or root-vegetable soups, and a steak dish.
