Aarde Pagar
Aarde Pagar’s breakfast – live fire, a self-filling coffee cup, eggs straight from the fire, and Aarde Must, which has barely cooled down, to put on the raw ingredients.
The backbone of Aarde Pagar Leivabar’s 10-course tasting menu is open sandwiches and bread-inspired dishes.

F-hoone
F-hoone is a legendary friendly go-to meeting place for locals and visitors of Tallinn alike. Located in the imposing century-old industrial building it attracts guests with its architectural grandeur, whimsical cuisine and carefree atmosphere.
Recently a wood-fired pizza section was added to the menu, meaning hot juicy sourdough pizzas are flying out of the oven every day. Chef Ranno Paukson created a special TMW pizza exclusively for the time music takes over the city. F-hoone welcomes you for breakfast, lunch, dinner or late-night drinks. Make sure to stop by and feel the buzz!

VLND Burger
VLND Burger is more than just food. In the middle of summer 2017, the community portal and the movement VLND organised the very first burger party in Viljandi, during which it was promised to sell exactly 70 burgers, and this “70 burger party” laid the foundation for something bigger. This was the beginning of the friends’ shared love for burgers and community power. This year, the sales counter of VLND Burger’s Baltic Station Market got a boost from the warm summer of burgers. VLND celebrates its fifth birthday and has travelled from Viljandi to Tallinn, and Tartu, visited villages all over Estonia and even reached Helsinki.
Mikkeller Tallinn Vanalinn, located near the Town Hall, offers 16 taps of the best beer from Mikkeller and other small producers. A curated wine list with classic and natural wines and cocktails offers experiences even for non-beer lovers. Mikkeller joined forces with VLND Burger to offer legendary burgers and snacks alongside the drink. The cosy atmosphere combines vintage charm with modern Danish design. Whether you crave a glass of beer or a dinner with friends, Mikkeller Old Town will treat you well.
