    I was a bit suspicious about breakfast when the very nice guy explained to me what I'm going to get. Especially because I'm not really a fan of light meals in the morning. But it came up that I got a very nice plate with everything I needed and I didn't know I needed it. Super tasty, very healthy and nicely served. Highly recommended!

    Adorable small cafe with delicious foods and snacks. Although options were not all available when we were there but still what I tried was amazingly tasted as homemade food. The owner is friendly and makes you feel welcome and comfortable. Definitely will visit again and appreciate the good vibe and perfect tasty options.

    Lovely and cosy little café. I visited this place on a Sunday afternoon. It was not too busy. I loved the coffee and i can't wait to taste some of the food next time i visit. I loved the atmosphere. The service is exceptional, very friendly and welcoming. Definitely recommended.

    Fantastic little spot for a coffee and a bite to eat. When we arrived, all the tables were full but some people moved around the make space for us. The employee who helped us did absolutely everything-eating tables, making coffee, making food. And he was very quick and friendly. The freddo coffees were cold and refreshing after a busy day. The pasta and salad were both super fresh, big portions, and so delicious!

    Amazing lunch! Such a cosy restaurant with a owner that is so personable. We had the lasagna which was delicious, and came with a really good salad. We also ordered a greek coffee which was tasty. Overall everything we would highly recommend! Lasagna was 13€, the coffee was 4€. Don’t think twice if you are in the area! Pop in 🌿

    Kaupungin parasta ruokaa 😍😍 ollaan käyty vaikka miten monesti, ei petä koskaan! Ravintolalla/kahvilalla melko pelkistetty ilme, itse tykkään kovasti. Iso suositus tälle paikalle!

    Pleasantly surprised by the quality of food here — the ingredients are all extremely fresh and chosen with care and the chef takes great care preparing every dish. The chef is very friendly and juggles all of the jobs in the restaurant, but manages very well. I highly recommend this place to any traveler.

    Had a nice Greek breakfast here! Quite an underrated place, but I’m surprised with the good rating. Everything’s lovely. The owner is so nice and friendly! Got some extra treats on the house as well. Totally recommend this place.

    Aivan ihana kahvila, omistaja on todella ystävällinen ja vieraanvarainen, tulee kotoisa olo. Ruoka oli todella hyvää ja ylitti odotukseni. Tilasin all day breakfastin, oli herkku!! Myös kreikkalainen kahvi on kokeilemisen arvoinen

    The place is simply brilliant! Excellent food and service - wholeheartedly recommend.

    Cafetino offered the best breakfast in Helsinki. It was a Greek sensation made better by the amazing service of its Chef-owner. Curated meals to fit meal period with an attention to quality and taste that rivals any establishment in its class. Breakfast was so good, I was forced to return for lunch

    Cozy, great food, amazingly nice host and fair prices. It was delicious! Can recommend it any day.

  • 5/5 andris s. 1 year ago on Google
    Atmosphere is great and the owner is very friendly but gives you space as well. It was surprising that in such a small area you could get a dish like that. Prices there in comparison was very decent. Seemed like there is a lot of frequent customers and I don't wonder why. Highly recommended.

    This place is such a hidden gem. The food is so delicious, it brings your inner senses to Greece! Definitely recommend ordering herbal tea to go with the cold weather

    I really loved this cafe! I got breakfast and a coffee here, both of which were excellent. I especially enjoyed the cozy atmosphere and how welcoming and kind the owner was

  • 5/5 RJ G. 1 year ago on Google
    The food was delicious! A wonderful atmosphere, and George was incredibly kind. If he has the gemista on the menu, do yourself a favor and get it! And you have to get the baklava as well - get it takeaway and enjoy it at one of the many nearby outdoor spaces.

    An incredibly tasty greek food. I came there several times during my stay in Helsinki, cause I wanted to repeat this experience :) The owner is very hospitable and amiable. Good and very high quality of the food! Highly recommended!!!

  • 5/5 Marc 1 year ago on Google
    We went there for breakfast and it was a great surprise. All the stuff was great and made at the moment. The owner was so kind. Cheers from the 3 Barcelona guys :)!

    Cafetino was our favorite restaurant in Helsinki. We went here for our first meal, and it was so good that we went back for our last meal. I had the moukava both times, my partner had the cannenli and then the lasagna. The owner alone is a reason to go. He’s such a sweet man and very humble and you can just tell that he loves doing this. We saw repeat customers there when we went the second time. Fair prices and he gave us free bread each time to accompany our meal :)

    Delicious breakfast, great value. Owner is nice too

  • 5/5 Cynthia Vargas T. 1 year ago on Google
    Best homemade greek food in Helsinki! Delicious Tzatziki with baked bread and the cannelloni 🤤♥️. My admiration on the owner for managing alone all the customers. For sure I will come back!

  • 4/5 Cameron B. 2 years ago on Google
    Really enjoyed. It's basic but - the chef here makes you feel like you're at his home and this was enjoyable. If you won't like that experience then it's not the place for you. Coffee tastes great too.

  • 5/5 charles k. 1 year ago on Google
    Simply the best place in Helsinki to share a lunch or a dinner with your close friends. The food is delicious, and the service is amazing. The owner is very kind and will do his best for you to have a good time.

  • 5/5 Jan U. 1 year ago on Google
    This is a ‘one man show’ cafe. George, the owner, has run the whole cafe by himself - cooking, serving, washing, greeting and so on. It’s fascinating. In addition to the hard-work, the food and coffee are also excellent! I visited the cafe everyday during my trip in Helsinki 😋

  • 5/5 Rafael H. 1 year ago on Google
    Delicious Greek home cooking restaurant and a lovely owner. You feel like eating in a Greek family house. I'll definitely return. Only downside is the lack of lactose free milk, but it's a minor thing.

  • 5/5 Alessandra P. 2 years ago on Google
    The best Espresso of Helsinki is here! Delicious and healthy breakfast with Greek yogurt, fruit and toast! The owner is smiling and nice!super suggested!

  • 5/5 Igors K. 3 years ago on Google
    Nice and cosy little place. Had only a snack, but will definitely return back for something else. Greek coffee and ham&cheese toast were very good.

  • 5/5 Janne S. 2 years ago on Google
    Friendly service and absolutely amazing food. The toast was so good. And won't break your bank. Can't recommend enough.

  • 5/5 Virpi R. 2 years ago on Google
    Cozy place with extremely friendly service. The food is delicious and made from the fresh ingredients. Homemade food at its best! Cafetino is worth to visit if you are looking for a intimate place for a cup of coffee or a lunch break.
