sippican Posted May 22, 2012 #1 Share Posted May 22, 2012 We would like to have lunch in Tallinn. Looking for a place in the old city. Pub-type fare would be good. Have looked at Porgu and Hell Hunt, do not want something as touristy as Old Hansa. Any suggestions? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare TLCOhio Posted May 22, 2012 #2 Share Posted May 22, 2012 We would like to have lunch in Tallinn. Looking for a place in the old city. Pub-type fare would be good. Have looked at Porgu and Hell Hunt, do not want something as touristy as Old Hansa. Any suggestions? There are a number of options in wonderful Tallinn. We ate outside on the main plaza overlooking the City Hall there. Nearby are other options. Here are some of visuals below on some of those options to experience this charming and historic city. THANKS! Enjoy! Terry in Ohio Did a June 7-19, 2011, Solstice cruise from Barcelona that had stops in Villefranche, ports near Pisa and Rome, Naples, Kotor, Venice and Dubrovnik.

This is the most popular beer in Estonia and the oldest operating brewery. Their slogan: "it's about the taste". We agree!!!: Parade in old city of Tallinn on a festival Saturday with a famed dining place, Olde Hansa, in the background: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Joy2Day Posted May 25, 2012 #4 Share Posted May 25, 2012 I cannot remember the restaurant name, but I'll use Terry's photo as a guide. Last summer, I ate at a restaurant "in the corner" of the photo --- at the left side of the building on the right ... to the left of the rent shade umbrellas. My husband first picked one of the restaurants from the building on the left, but they could not accommodate my low-sodium requirements. So he ate his lunch while I watched, then we moved ... and I ate my lunch while he watched. They made a special low-sodium meal for me that was yummy. I think it was a chicken casserole dish with vegetables. We both agreed that my meal was the better of the 2 .. and the staff was so friendly.

Rare TLCOhio Posted May 25, 2012 #5 Share Posted May 25, 2012 Do most restaurants accept credit cards? When in Tallinn, many of the sit-down dining places seemed to accept credit cards. We ate at the House Cafe shown in the top picture. Check first, but lots of places do. If you have nice weather, dining outside is great to enjoy the weather, setting, people-watching, etc. THANKS!

shorefolks Posted May 25, 2012 #6 Share Posted May 25, 2012 In Tallinn we ate at a place recommended by Rick Steves, Vanaema Juures. It is a block behind the town square and opens at 12:00. We had an excellent lunch and local beer. Very nice folks, and they take credit cards. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
