Charming Garden Restaurants in TallinnThe indoor space at Restaurant Kohalik is small. However, the terrace and apple orchard can accommodate many groups of diners.

 

Hidden in a Charming Apple Orchard

Restaurant Kohalik is a delightful little spot in Northern Tallinn. On one side of the eatery rises the old Sitsi cotton factory, which in the near future will be transformed into a new residential and cultural hub. In summer, guests can enjoy Kohalik’s dishes on the spacious terrace or in the apple orchard. The restaurant offers a breakfast menu, a lunch special from 11:30 to 15:00, and an à la carte menu.

 

Weis Resto operates in a wooden house built in 1931.

 

A Villa Restaurant on Mustamäe Road

Weis Resto operates in a small wooden house in the Kristiine district of Tallinn. This local favourite is about four kilometers from the city centre. In summer, guests can dine in the inner courtyard of the wooden house located along the busy Mustamäe tee. In less favourable weather, the veranda offers a cosy spot to admire the surroundings.

Weis’s menu is modern and European. A private space for events is also available on the restaurant’s second floor.

 

Lee Brasserie’s outdoor terrace and courtyard open during the summer. It’s a popular restaurant, so it’s advisable to make a reservation in advance.

 

In the Garden of a Michelin-Starred Restaurant

Lee Brasserie is an elegant gourmet restaurant located in the Old Town. It was included in the prestigious Michelin Guide in 2024. This spring, Maido Maiste became the head chef, known for his ability to present simple flavours with sophistication. He has worked in Estonia’s top restaurants and gained experience abroad. If exquisite dining and a charming atmosphere draw you in, you’ve found exactly what you’re looking for.
