Tripadvisor’s approach to reviews
Before posting, each Tripadvisor review goes through an automated tracking system, which collects information, answering the following questions: how, what, where and when. If the system detects something that potentially contradicts our community guidelines, the review is not published.
When the system detects a problem, a review may be automatically rejected, sent to the reviewer for validation, or manually reviewed by our team of content specialists, who work 24/7 to maintain the quality of the reviews on our site.
Our team checks each review posted on the site disputed by our community as not meeting our community guidelines.
Learn more about our review moderation.

Before I went to the Sinebrychoff Museum I search at TripAdvisor for a lunch restaurant nearby and I found the restaurant Southpark, but when I went there, I couldn’t find it, so I asked to the museum and they told me. The restaurant is located...on edge of Sinebrychoff Park, partly hidden by a wooden “plank” and difficult to see from the street. The lunch today was a tasty fillet of pork served to the table and sallad buffet. Nice atmosphere and friendly staff.More

Expensive brunch compared to what you get. Warm bread was the best part but otherwise everything was just waste of money.

We enjoyed a fresh uncomplicated brunch on a rainy saturday and had a very good time. Reasonably priced for the wide selection in the buffet, very polite service. Recommended for just about anyone, but booking a table is propably a smart idea: our 11 am...serving was full.More

Tasty lunch in this museum café-restaurant. Fresh salad buffet with soup of the day. Nice place with large windows and Sinebrychoff park views. Central but hidden.

To be honest I was extremely satisfied with my lunch experience! I had read many reviews here on TripAdvisor and disagree with all the negative comments. In my opinion service was excellent and waiters were super friendly - especially blond short hair young waiter was...awesome. He attended us well with care. For me the salad buffet with soup was enough for lunch as there were many options. Souo was delicious and bread too. I will definitely return!More

We went to Southpark Restaurant for a Saturday brunch. There was a good selection of food available including dessert and you have the possibility to order a glass of sparking wine too. The restaurant is situated in the Sinebrychoff park, which is a great location....In the summer time there is also outdoor seating. I can recommend Southpark for weekend brunch.More

The place is located in a nice place near the Koff park and classic Bulevardi street. The place looks nice by its decoration but this is where the good ends. I have been eating here both lunches and weekend brunch and I have mostly been...disappointed. I can't recommend the food here but if you are only looking for a place to relax for a while, its good by its atmosphere. Here is my summary: - brunch is quite light and breakfast kind. It does not serve anything really special but it takes your hunger away. - food otherwise (lunches) have been just eatable by their taste. Nothing special. - service used to be bad, but it has got better recently. - only two stars because I have always waited for more.More

Southpark’s brunch is well worth the money. You can choose a glass of sparkling, a special coffee or smoothie for an extra cost. Highly recommend to book a table advance, place is popular on weekends. Easy access to Southpark both on foot or by tram.

Southpark is a cozy restaurant in Sinerbrychoff park in Helsinki. They serve lunch, brunch and dinners. Menu is short but pretty much ok. We were there during lunch time and found the menu excellent. Three alternatives - soup, meat and vegetarian pasta - and a...rich salad table were available. Food was tasty and the location enjoyable.More

Southpark's new Sunday brunch is pure enjoyment. Our group had several options to choose from - wide selection of tasty salads, cereal and nuts. With a nice croissant & bread table it felt like really good hotel breakfast with something for everyone, everything tasted fresh...and perfect. There was a good selection for vegatarians as well and if asked a few days beforehands a vegan brunch is also available. I especially loved the honey roasted vegetables on the salad table. And on top on everything there was so many desserts it was really difficult not to eat too much! Highly recommended for anyone who likes good food.More

Sitting in a leafy park, this restaurant was just perfect for a sunny Saturday brunch. The food is so fresh and delicious and you just eat what you want (self service buffet style) and drink as much tea, coffee and water as you like. If...this was London it would have overcrowded and noisy. As it was, it was booked up and all was very calm and relaxing. Great choice!More
