This wooden cafe in Joensuu's central park is resembling the decorative water kiosks of the early 20th century. This kiosk was built in 2015. After visiting the Art Museum Onni next door, we had refreshing Aperol Spritzes here on the terrace. They were well made...and reasonably priced. The service was friendly.More

My partner and I stopped here for late breakfast at noon the day after the Ilosaari rock festival and we couldn't have been happier! He chose a BBQ chicken bagel (not actually a genuine bagel but a local type of bread called vesirinkeli, a bit...similar to a bagel) and a cappuccino, while I went for a green smoothie, a waffle with fresh strawberries and vanilla ice-cream and a green tea. The waffle was not just any waffle but a special type made of pulla (Finnish sweet bun). Super yummy - totally made my day! I only wish they didn't use an icky artificial whip cream from a can, but the real thing. It was nice to be able to enjoy our breakfast outside, too.More

Salty or sweet...delicious both ways! Lovely waffels and bagels to give your mouth and stomach the best time.
