A classic "must" spot at HEL Airport . Do like the locals do, since no trip is complete without a whiskey or beer at this location. Pretty good service , good beers & whiskies . Irony optional.

Hands down the best pub in Finland . Great service, customers are always in a happy mood and most importantly the beer is great. Most trips start here :)

Beeee

Very nice airport bar , visit here every time back in Finland . It is the place that u should definitely try if u have to have a long wait here.

Understandably quite an expensive place, but it’s a tradition for me to stop by before my flight leaves. Vegan shakshouka was tasty and spicy .

Matias T.

Easily the greatest place on Helsinki-Vantaa, if not indeed the whole country . Always welcoming, humorous and well-informed staff .

Perttu Soininen

The beer sausage + potato salad combo "Pitkänakki" is an absolute lifesaver in between a hard days work & the flight back home!

Juha Ristolainen

Great service. Good selection of beer for the thirsty traveller. A bit pricey .

Artem Goutsoul

theMartti

Erik Brockwell

One of the best airport pubs with good beer and reasonable food.

Marc UKG

Beer selection is OK, but quite expensive which is not surprising considering this pub is located in a finnish airport .

Jan Rosenberg

One of the best airport pubs . New Stallhagen always on tap .

Lars Fronius

Airport bar , that is better than your average bar . Nice selection of beers .

Adwin Imperial

For some reason I am loving the potato salad and sausage . Simple but delicious!

Erik Brockwell

Great beer selection for an airport pub !

Sigrid de Castella

Don't bother with the food here ... pre made pies which are all wrong, and the sausages are like Frankfurts with KFC potato salad at ridiculous prices

Nicholas Allio

It doesn't matter where are you going or what time is it: it's always time for a beer at The Oak Barrel

Kalle Kangas

Good beer selection : London Porter , New Castle Brown Ale on tap , Fuller 's ESB etc

Good beer selection but the service can be rather poor

Anastasia Kolegova

После длинного пути из Спб пинта разливного пива и сосиски с картофельным салатом - то что нужно!

Victor Govorukho

Жутко дорогой Ягермайстер: 7.60€ за шот . Лучше взять еще один бокал свежего пива !

Alexey

Бельгийское, английское и ирландское пиво - здесь есть

Carlos Lopez Vecchionacce

Pedir la cerveza Stallhagen, esta buenísima y mientras esperas tienes en frente todo el bosque ...

Jukka Niiranen

"Jos sulla olla kiire, sa ala tulla tanne juoma minu brown ale." No, onneksi tämä on aina se viimeinen kalja kotimaan kamaralla, joten asiat voivat vain parantua. Kippis!
