fat boy blue said:Anybody got recent experience of beer prices in Tallinn and Helsinki .looked on Internet but first hand knowledge is better
Helsinki: If you want cheap, then Kallio/Sörnäinen is your thing. Very easy to get from-and-to the stadium. You can take the tram 8 or trams 7A/7B. The beer costs from 2.8€ to about 5.5€. There is a bar at Hämeentie, called Bronco, whitch I've "decorated" a bit (The backroom)...Say hi from Timo.
The area: Not the nicest places with all the drunks and such, but defenetly something you should try as it has it's own kinda "atmosphere". I've lived here for 13 years, so I should know.
Close to the stadium, shouldn't be too expensive. Karhuministeri probaply the cheapest and closest to the stadium.
If they ask over 6€ for a beer, you should try the next bar. There are plenty.
Few good ones:
Close to the stadium:Pub 99
Other side of the road, with a nice terrace:
Grincos Locos
Others:Bar Bronco
Ofcourse the town center has the best restaurants and pubs, but the beer costs anything from 6€-11.70€.
Feel free to ask anything.
