Restaurants and cafés

As you wander through the streets of the Finlayson Area, the inviting aromas of freshly brewed coffee and delicious food are never far away. Whether you’re looking for a quick coffee break, a satisfying lunch, or a relaxed evening with friends, Finlayson’s cafés and restaurants have something for every occasion.

A world of flavours awaits

Behind the iconic red-brick façades of the Finlayson Area you’ll find a vibrant mix of cafés and restaurants, ranging from relaxed and rustic to elegant and international. Right in the heart of Tampere, the day begins with a leisurely breakfast, continues over lunch with colleagues, and ends with an unhurried dinner.

The area’s restaurants and lunch spots take you on a journey of flavours from around the world – from Finnish favourites to bold spices and aromatic international cuisine. Enjoy classic Italian dishes or a fresh, wholesome salad for lunch.

The cafés of the Finlayson Area offer the perfect place to slow down and take a break from the everyday rush. Tempting pastries and the aroma of freshly brewed coffee invite you in, while the unique surroundings – even above the city’s rooftops – make every coffee break feel a little more special.

Exciting new cafés and restaurants are coming to the Finlayson Area

A highly anticipated redevelopment project will begin at Siperia business centre in the Finlayson Area in August 2026. Scheduled for completion in summer 2027, the project will bring an exciting new selection of cafés and restaurants, offering an even more diverse dining experience.

During the redevelopment, some of the area’s restaurants will be temporarily closed. However, several cafés and restaurants will remain open and continue serving customers as usual. We warmly welcome you to enjoy great food and coffee!
