Historic Café
in Helsinki
Step into a beautifully restored café where Helsinki has gathered, celebrated and lingered since 1827.

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.

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.

A peaceful pause between the sights
Cajsan Helmi is an easy stop while exploring the city centre. Helsinki Central Station, the National Theatre, Oodi Central Library, the Cathedral and Hakaniemi are all nearby.
