Food Scene
Kallio is rich in new and exciting food venues. We would love to recommend our favourites.
The owner and baker is over 90 years old and makes the most beautiful decorative breads in the world. Very tiny shop, but anything is good quality and fresh. : )

A lovely place to enjoy an excellent selection of all things natural fermentation - from bread to wines. They also have a satellite ice cream/wine bar in the park across the street hosting a series of nice activities during summer.

Drinks & Nightlife
Great bar in Kallio. It gathers young people and locals, good price for beers. My choice for a drink in the neighbourhood.

A cool bar where locals and non locals hang out. There is live DJ after a certain time, and room for some dancing if you are in the mood. The bar does not charge any entrance fees, which is certainly a plus. : )

Beautiful National Park. You can choose to book a cabin for a overnight stay. It is mostly special during winters (with the frozen lakes) and summer (with the -almost- never setting sun)

Smoke sauna + lake + forest. You read it right! Amazing view in a true Finnish experience. The park is located in Vantaa, but a 25mins ride by bus takes you just there.
