Planning a trip to the Finnish capital and now wondering where to go for lunch while sightseeing? We've compiled a selection of great places to eat deliciously and inexpensively by Finnish standards.

Old covered market

Old covered markets in European cities are a special attraction. They attract with their unusual architecture and, of course, the variety of local products that are beautifully displayed on the shelves. The old covered market in Helsinki is also attractive for the budget traveler because you can dine here deliciously and without much spending.

There are many establishments here, including traditional cuisine. For example, breakfast at Story cafe will cost from 13 euros, meals at lunchtime - from 10.50 euros. The menu is updated weekly, so you can try both Scandinavian and Eastern cuisine. The latter has recently become especially popular in Finland. The counter of the Roberts Coffee chain coffee shop is also located here, which is known for its democratic prices. A coffee with a bun or a sandwich will cost you 6 euros. At Blondie Bakes, a flavored cinnamon roll will cost three euros. A snack at Scandinavian Café costs less than 10 euros: sandwiches with salmon or shrimp cost from 5 euros, meat and fish pies and wickets - 3.60, and coffee - from 2.5 euros. And, of course, no one canceled the tasting of specialties on the market.

Cafe Vapiano

Cafe Vapiano specializes in Italian cuisine and belongs to a large international chain. In addition to Helsinki, these establishments can also be found, for example, in Bonn and Baku. You need to go here for pasta, pizza and risotto. Hot meals start at 9 euros, first courses from 6 euros, and drinks from 2.90.

At the entrance to the cafe, you will be given a card on which all the dishes you ordered will be recorded.

As in other popular establishments in Helsinki, it is a bit cramped here - the place is loved not only by tourists who want to save money, but also by locals. A nice bonus for those who like to take a walk at a later time - the cafe is open until two in the morning, which is absolutely atypical for Finland.

Lunch time varies from place to place, but generally, lunch at a café starts at 10-11 am and lasts until 2 pm-3 pm.

At Fazer Café, a salad bar will cost between 9.90 and 14.20 euros, and a lunch - 13.50 euros, it includes an appetizer or salad, a first hot course and a drink. For those who are particularly picky about food, there are special notes on the menu that indicate that the dish contains garlic or an allergen. There is also an à la carte menu, but when ordering individual items, the average bill per person increases to 25 euros. And also in Stockmann there is a Moomin Café, which will attract not only children, but also adults with an interesting interior (here you will meet your favorite characters from stories about Moomin trolls).

You can have a hearty lunch at La Familia. This is another Italian place in our selection. There are several options for lunches: pizza, burger or choice of meat and vegetables. You can also pay for a buffet and choose dishes without restrictions. Either option is offered at lunchtime (11:00 to 14:30) for a fixed price of € 10.20. The drink is included in the price.

Dylan Marmoripiha cafe will be no less attractive institution for budget tourists. The bistro does not have an à la carte menu and is only open from 8:00 am to 4:00 pm.

In this post I will continue to introduce you to my own experience of a (little) budget stay in Finland, although the prices here are not for the faint of heart. Earlier I wrote about how you can be accommodated on a budget, in the future - how to move on a budget, and now - how to eat on a budget and at the same time tasty and high-quality food in Finland. I'll tell you about the possibilities for a good snack costing 1-2 euros and places for a full all-inclusive lunch costing up to 8 euros in Helsinki and Kouvola. And, yes, there are no comrades for the taste and color! I share exclusively my own taste preferences (who would have told me about this when I had not yet lived in Finland!).

Snack

The most budget option is to spend the night in such a hotel / guest house (for example), which has its own kitchen, and before going out, prepare coffee or tea in a thermos and make a few sandwiches for the trip.

Another option is to find one of Lidl's shops along the way, which always has its own, sometimes hot, take-away grocery. So, in the Lidl store we are looking for a shelf with pastries (you can move by smell). On it - Karelian pies for 25 cents, three-quadrangular buns with an abundant amount of sunflower seeds, sesame seeds, etc. - 39-49 cents each, as well as other buns and puffs with different fillings for different tastes and wallets. And find a liter box of juice or a bottle of energy drink / soda. Total: 1-2 euros!

I like to add to them a great soft blue cheese with mold or a piece of jellied meat (it looks like a jellied meat), and, sometimes, sliced ​​cheese or ham. The cost increases by another 2 euros, but the quantity is already for 2-3 snacks! The only inconvenience is that in cities it is difficult to find a place where you can safely eat (I prefer to eat in a car or intercity transport - but about transport and the best places in it - in the next post).

Complete lunch in the center of Helsinki

I used to prefer university canteens - UniCafe with a buffet and a budget price. But lately the price of lunch there has exceeded 8 euros, and I found another place. This is an all-inclusive pizzeria in the basement of the Forum building - entrance from Mannerheim Street. Address: 00100 Helsinki, Mannerheimintie street 20. On the menu: soup of the day (tomato or bean), salads (I especially recommend dressing your salads with creamy herbal sauce) and 5 different types of hot pizza on fluffy dough. And the number of approaches is not limited! To this, you must immediately ask for a glass of water at the checkout - they give half a liter, since tea or coffee, unfortunately, for an additional fee. The cost of such a dinner has recently become 7.90, but it's worth it! I like not only the cuisine there, but also the atmosphere - very stylish (paintings by the artist Crow) and there is no (I hope that there will not be) "conveyor" bustle of fast foods.

Full lunch in the center of Kouvola

The coolest place with great or super-great dining in Kouvola is Lamykin's Cookhouse Restaurant (Café) in Hansa Mall for its third year in operation. Address: 45100 Kouvola, Torikatu Street 3. Entrance from the city market square. Stylish atmosphere, excellent service in Russian, English and Finnish languages, the most attractive prices in Kouvola brought this restaurant to the first place in the city on the popular site tripadvisor.ru

An excellent lunch, in Finnish - Lounas (lOunas), costs 8 euros and includes soup of the day (creamy with red fish, or borscht, or others), several types of salads (including Greek), tea, coffee and pastries! The super lunch also includes one more dish, which is specially prepared for you in the open kitchen-theater (you can watch what the dish is made of, how it is cooked on charcoal in the oven, and at the same time talk with a Russian-speaking chef!). This is a red grilled fish melting in your mouth (for me this is in the first place), meat on ribs, barbecue, etc. (the cost of a super lunch is 11-12 euros). One of my guests, a professor from Russia, confessed to our company there: "I experienced real food ecstasy!"

My numerous guests - scientists, artisans, artists, performers of folklore ensembles from Udmurtia, Komi, St. Petersburg, Moscow and other places remember this restaurant with great pleasure, especially after talking with Yuri - the owner and chef, an open and bright person!

Going to visit the Finnish capital, we often carefully plan our time, not wanting to waste it. After all, there is so much to do. Be sure to visit the sights, take time for shopping, meet with friends, and you never know more interesting things! Visiting should always be interesting, fun, and of course delicious!
