    Ihana boheemin värikäs lounaskahvila, jossa iso ulkoterassi viihtyisällä sisäpihalla. Kahvia, Chaita, monenlaisia leivoksia, pannukakkuja suolaisella ja makealla täytteellä. Myös ruoka-annoksia ja aamiaista tarjolla. Kuvassa pankoogi juuston ja aurinkokuivattujen tomaattien kanssa. Cosy and bohemian colourful cafe and restaurant with a big outside area for eating in the courtyard. Coffee, Chai, bakery, pancakes with sweet and salty filling. Also breakfast and Lunch. The pic is of pancake with cheese and sundried tomato filling.

    This used to be my favourite place to eat in the entire country, and by far! For years, it has boasted an incomparable down-home cosy, welcoming atmosphere, plus food that always seemed like it was made the sweetest of grandmothers on her farm, excellent coffee, and jaw-dropping pastries, better than anything even Tallinn can offer. It always felt like a pleasant adventure to go there and step back into an almost 19th century local shop feel where their love and passion for all that is pure and tasty is felt in every step. Many of these aspects are still there, and I would still recommend this place to some . However, sadly, no longer with such enthusiasm. In my last 5-10 visits I've felt that the quality of the food, while still very good, has slipped to the just OK or more than decent. The omelet for example - this place used to have omelets which redefined them, fluffy, full, generous portion and with a plate filled with salad and other lovingly placed details. Now they are flat, mostly without particular taste. I am sad to say that the omelet I had at the train station cafe was twice the size, tastier and two and half times cheaper than the last one I had at roheline maja. I never thought I could say that. And that leads us to the prices. I understand that the use of quality organic materials costs, and I know that generally in Estonia the price - quality ratio has long been out of whack, and I know how hard it is to stay afloat as a small business in Estonia, but the current prices at RM have tipped the scales of what feels reasonable and worthwhile, or just and fair. Pastries, for example, are expensive in most places now but these still feel some 20% more than would be reasonably expensive. I have left each time recently feeling that I truly did not get my money's worth in terms of portion size, creativity or taste. As for atmosphere, it's still super sweet though I'd suggest visiting only summertime so you can sit on the back terrace. The acoustics in the main hall are such that even a few people can create real ear-splitting noise as wood scrapes wood when chairs move and glasses clink and kids yell, it's not a very relaxing place inside anymore. So, it's with some heaviness of heart that I've seen this place slip somewhat. It's heart and soul is still visible there but showing some weariness. I'm sad to say I don't feel any impulse to go back again. Though I'm sure I will, to enjoy the outside terrace...

    Friendly staff and great variety of pastry cakes. The coffee with oat milk to end was an added bonus!

    Kahden takeaway kahvin tilaus kesti yli 20 minuuttia ja silloinkaan ei kahvia vielä saatu 😟 Pyysimme rahat takaisin ja menimme pienen matkaan eteenpäin ja hyvät kahvit oli kädessä noin 2 minuutissa. Ravintolassa ei ollut ruuhkaa eli olisi luullut kahvit saavan nopeasti

    Ihmisiä oli tupa täys niin sisällä kuin terassilla. Söimme kurpitsa bataatti keiton, oli tosi hyvää. Tuorepuristetut mehut myös hyviä. Palvelu nopeaa vaikka asiakkaita oli paljon ja kokoaika tuli lisää. Suosittelen

    Miellyttävä ja viihtyisä kahvila jossa leivonnaisia moneen makuun. Pientä lounaspurtavaakin löytyy sekä kahvia monissa eri muodoissa. Värejä, tunnelmaa, tunnetta kaikkea löytyy ystävällisen palvelun kera. Suosittelen lämpimästi🌹🦋

    Vibe is on point, i love the color combinations they have and i respect that they have found the niche. However and this is important, quality of the food does not match the prices. Espresso is a bit off balance (too sour), i get that pastries can be cold because they were made in the morning (offer to warm them up). However you make it up with the atmosphere.

    Really nice looking coffee place. Friendly customer service. Food was good. Dogs were also welcome.

  • 5/5 Matti M. 8 months ago on Google
    Todella hyvä kahvio, josta saa herkkujen lisäksi myös kunnon ruokaa, kuten salaatteja, keittoja sekä liharuokia. Pihapuoli on mukava ja nätti.

    Kahvila on aivan ihastuttavan kaunis, kuin vaahtokarkki 😍 vitriinissä oli maukkaita leivoksia ja erityisesti minua ilahdutti gluteeniton herkullinen kakku 🍰

    + Best cappuccino I've ever tasted. (They roast their own beans) + omlett was nice + Kind, friendly people + Try their garden in summer. You will remember the good old days in your grandparents' garden.

    One of the coolest shop/cafés in the valley. Light and dark roast coffee available, it’s really tasty as well. Never have I been disappointed in the bakery’s pastries and the food served here. Plus, there is an earth friendly vibe coded into this shop and café. Very highly recommend!

    For anyone visiting Viljandi, Green House Cafeteria is THE place to be eating at least once while in this tiny settlement at the 13th century Crusaders to Terra Mariana Castle ruins. If with friends, choose for tasting and sharing all the priciest meals on the menu this day/ morning, whether salmon or omelette with bacon or smoothie bowl -- I could bet you'd be pleasantly surprised comparing THIS food with something with the same name and same components in any previous restaurants you have been. Afford for dessert any of the luxurious looking creamy cheese cakes with berries or whatever your eyes land on; and for take-away my friends are used to buy 10 rolls with poppyseeds at once, or with cinnamon, and the huge richly filled meat pies will indeed be remembered years later, urging to reflect on returning to Viljandi again.

    Delicious and healthy breakfast with the freshest ingredients. I had omelette with cottage cheese and it was exactly what I wanted to eat while travelling around Estonia. Also treated myself to a cake with cranberries and it was yum. Oh yes, best coffee I tried in Estonia so far. It’s not sweet nor it is sour like many cafes make. I also loved the interior and building itself, felt like eating at my grandma’s house. Very atmospheric, authentic and super nice staff!

    Best coffee and pies! They roast their own coffee, it's so smooth and delicious, many coffee milks to choose from (plant based and regular). Nice atmosphere, come here once a year and still one of my favorites. Hard to get a table because always full but it's worth the wait.

    G.! What a great cozy home vibe feel.. Love the fact its a shop plus restaurant combined under same roof. Most definitely would point out the quality of their coffee, which the beans are rosted on spot. Love many more details, all in all - great food- great stuff.!!

  • 5/5 Katrin K. 3 years ago on Google
    Quite a peculiar coffee shop! It's really popular and has very limited seating. The pastries where amazing and also the food on the menu was enjoyable. As it's pretty small place - it's also very lively. Book a table to make sure to have a table!

    When you visit Viljandi, this is the place to take a break. They have absolutely amazing coffee and great pastries. There’s a short menu of daily meals, which although a bit pricey, are usually very good. During the summer it’s possible eat outside in their lovely and colorful garden.

👍 Hotspot in metropolitan VIljandi with nice food and drinks 🍗 Very funny service: waiters do not take orders outside cuz they are a bit scared to get a cold (but it’s Estonia so it’s ok). It took 1 minute to prepare the pasta and 25 minutes to bring the pre-prepared cakes, something shady must be ha...

👍 Snack. Average food but quickly served by helpful and smiling people. Variety of pizza with different cooking (size and textures ) Not a cozy place but clean and very functional . Eating inside or outside is possible too. Tip: ask at the desk to use the rest rooms, they will open it for you
