Oluthuone Esplanadi

No Longer In Business

A bit of a fishbowl, with a view out onto the esplanade,including some other bar’s terrace. Rather too much like a chessboard of rectilinearly arrranged 2-person tables. Staff were friendly, and seemed to know what was on tap in Plevna too, when things I was interested were not available there. Some interesting imports, though the prices can be steep (30e for a big fancy US bottle). There’s nothing actually wrong with this place, but it just doesn’t grab me as a pub unlike some of the others in town.

Cozy Middle European style pub located near Tampere top places Tuulensuu and O’Haras. This place is connected with Plevna, so they have some Plevna’s beers on tap. Also usually bottles from Pikkulintu (De Molen and such). For regular ticker there is not much here although nothing wrong in the place itself.

Rather cozy more food restaurant than just pub. 6 Plevna beers, 1 mead and 1 cider on taps. Moderate prices. Nothing really special here.

Quite a standard bar with standard "kind-of-german" appearance. 7 local beers, 1 local cider, 1 local sima (honey brew). + 1 "big beer" (karhu). All from the tap. Also schnappses from local Plevna brewery and bottled stuff. Price range 5 to 7€ for 0.5l drafted beer.

A very spacey and comfortable place with nice view to the near-by park. Fixed selection of Plevna brews on tap all year around and a limited list of more exotic beers on bottle. Sadly the bottle selection doesn’t vary too much.

A rather posh bar with a quite good selection of beers. Also carries a bunch of the Plevna/Koskipanimo beers. Good service, and atleast some in the staff know what they are serving and can recommend other similar products if needed. A bit on the expensive side.
