Where Helsinki history comes to the table

Cajsan Helmi is more than a beautiful café. Its rooms have welcomed generations of guests, and today they pair carefully restored details with the warmth of a modern tea room.

Restored with care

A café with nearly two centuries of stories

The restaurant building dates from 1827. Its elegant halls, period character and views towards Kaisaniemi Park create an atmosphere that feels both distinctly Helsinki and wonderfully removed from the rush outside.

Come for handmade pastries and excellent tea; stay for the sense of place.
