Your day always has a delicious start at the airport – whether you are flying or just stopping by for coffee. From freshly baked pastries to warm breakfast dishes and quick bites to go, there is something for everyone.
Breakfast without travel plans
Located in the arrivals hall, Kaffet Bakery invites you to enjoy freshly baked pastries and the best coffee of your journey. The café offers buttery cinnamon buns, fresh breads, hearty sandwiches and salads, as well as delicious treats to take away.
If you prefer fresh bread and a cup of coffee for breakfast, head to the Helsinki Market restaurant in the arrivals hall, which serves oven-fresh buns from its own bakery. And, in addition, Helsinki Market offers a daily breakfast buffet
Enjoying a brunch before flying to Europe
Restaurant Pier Zero in the gate area is also open early in the morning, serving breakfast with freshly squeezed juices, coffee and tea as well as hot breakfast sandwiches.
Right after security control, Nordic Kitchen serves warm breakfast favorites such as omelets, and Tori Kitchen & Café delights with overnight oats. The café Kaffet Helsinki opens its doors at five in the morning, and its selection includes freshly baked cinnamon buns and pastries from its own airport bakery.
Coffee and croissants for long-haul flights
If your flight is departing soon, you can conveniently grab a coffee and pastry to go from one of the WHSmith kiosks located both before and after passport control, near gates 20, 27 and 50.
If you are travelling by long-haul flight to the United States or Asia, for example, your flight will depart from gate area 39–52.
After the passport control, you will find world-famous coffee from Starbucks, as well as quick breakfast options from R-kioski and the new Subway opening in December.
