Põhjala Tallinn
Best brewery and tap room in Estonia
Põhjala Tap Room is one of my favorite places to have breakfast and beer right now. Not necessarily all at the same time, but on Sunday they serve breakfast all day long ;)
The bar has 24 Põhjala and guest beers on tap, paired with Texas BBQ, with vegetarian options also available. On the ground floor, you can buy the best and freshest selection of Põhjala beer to go in their beer and merch shop (glasses, hoodies, etc) The brewery has tours in Estonian, English as well as in Finnish and Russian upon request. Check their website for times. If you have some celebration or treat yourself day, there is a cool private sauna for rent that can host up to 8 people.
The building itself deserves attention and admiration as it is situated in a former factory built in 1914. Do not miss this new gem in Kalamaja situated a bit North from famous Teleskivi.
