Pub Heinähattu Helsinki

The essence of Vaasankatu

Janiina from Helsinki

""Pub Heinähattu" in Helsinki isn't for you if you want to spend a nice, quiet evening; this bar is popular among local punks & has a very loyal clientele!"

Pub Heinähattu, "Heinis" as it is known among locals, is definitely one of my favorite bars around. If you are looking for a place to spend a nice and quiet evening, Pub Heinähattu is definitely not the place. But if you like to spend your nights in crowded and noisy bars with always something happening, it is a good choice!

The thing with Pub Heinähattu is that it looks like a traditional cheap Kallio bar that the neighborhood is full of, but actually it is something else. First of all, it is not the cheapest around. But in return it has a nice selection of drinks, often special beers on tap that you can get only there. Second, what makes Pub Heinähattu special, is its customers. Pub Heinähattu is popular among local punks and has gathered a group of loyal customers, so when you get in you'll soon notice that everybody, including the staff, seems to know each other. This creates a nice and unique atmosphere which sometimes might to get a little wild, I'll admit.

There are also occasional gigs and DJ nights in Pub Heinähattu, so it is worth it to check their Facebook-page for info.

Helsinki Spotter Janiina

About me I've been living in Helsinki since 2007, when I moved here to study musicology in the University of Helsinki. I was born in central Finland and grew up in eastern Finland, but Helsinki has become my real home town. Music is my greatest passion, but I love art and culture in general, from movies to exhibitions and comics. Why Helsinki? In Helsinki I have been living in the districts of Vallila and Kallio and they are my favourite parts of the city. But every once in a while I like to leave my neighborhood and explore more distant parts of Helsinki....

Pub Sirdie

The old school Kallio classic

"Pub Sirdie" in Helsinki is the only place for me to feel the Kallio spirit in its original form! This pub has a true cult following, and for good reason!
