Located in the heart of Old Porvoo, Tee- ja Kahvihuone Helmi has been serving its guests since 1983. Housed in an 18th-century building, its unique interior and warm atmosphere create a memorable experience for every visitor.

All our treats are made in our own patisserie – the display is filled daily with handmade sweet and savoury pastries, including Porvoo’s own classic, the Runeberg tart, as well as pies and cakes. Our tea selection features dozens of our own tea blends, handcrafted in our own tea shop. And of course, we serve excellent coffee too.
Tee- ja Kahvihuone Helmi is a place where time stands still – the perfect moment to enjoy quality treats, good company, and the unique atmosphere of Old Porvoo.
