52 /100 Vihreä Haltiatar (Bar) KAUPPAKATU 13 Really alternative beer pub. I guess bottle offers varies. Not very impressive at my visit though. Limited number of taps. Two Lindemans, Urquell, Оболонь. I had the ukrainian just for relax. Julebox played Dire Straits and old finnish ballads. Interesting having been here. |
94 /100 LUTAKONAUKIO 3 Yay, a modern minimaltist-style pub restaurant with 8 taps and lots of Hiisi and other goodies in the beerfridgerator. Good rock played on normal vokume. Mac n cheese and a flesh dish paired Hiisi's fresh beers perfectly. |
82 /100 Alko Jyväskylä Keskusta Sokos (Beer Store) ASEMAKATU 8 The central location and good selection make this Alko a very good beershop in Jyväskylä. |
78 /100 Alko Jyväskylä Keljo (Beer Store) KYLMÄLAHDENTIE 6 Alko in a shopping centre. Car park to the northeast outside the building, and Alko to the nortwest inside the building. Nice selection and good order. Almost as good as Alko downtown. |
66 /100 Alko Jyväskylä Seppälä (Beer Store) VASARAKATU 29 Alko in a K-CityMarket. Easy to park at 12:30 a saturday. Welcoming staff - very beautiful young ladies. I found some news, and a Sahti. Bra. Dobre. Hyvää. |
74 /100 LUTAKONAUKIO 3 Visited few times in 2022 and 2023. Only Hiisi stuff in the taps when I visited. They don't brew at the premises, so the bottleshop was bit lackluster. Food was quite average. The best thing about the place are the rarer barrel aged Hiisi beers available. |
76 /100 Bar Explosive (Bar) PUISTOKATU 1 Visited few times in 2022 and 203. Only few taps, but a good selection of cans in the fridge. |
74 /100 Harry’s Jyväskylä (Bar) KAUPPAKATU 41 Visited few times in 2022 and 2023. Decent selection and I like the ambiance. Didnt try the snacks. |
72 /100 Harry’s Jyväskylä (Bar) KAUPPAKATU 41 Nice British style pub in the city center. Not far from the railway station and other beer locations. Good selection of Finnish craft and updated menu online. Well worth checking out. |
54 /100 Teerenpeli Jyväskylä (Bar) KAUPPAKATU 32 The usual Teerenpeli pub feel as expected. Central location and rather busy on a Friday night. Good selection of their own beers (and whiskies) - again as expected. Some interesting guest beers too. Just across the street from Harry's. |
26 /100 Roast (Restaurant) VAPAUDENKATU 73 New name Roost, only two taps, and only macro in fridges also. |
74 /100 Musta Kynnys (Bar) HANNIKAISENKATU 16 The old railway station building was built 1896-97 according to the style of national romanticist wooden architecture, by the architect Bruno Granholm at the Finnish Railway Institute. A new station opened 2002. Now the beer bar Musta Kynnys is situated inside the former station building. Quite roomy. Many Hiisi-bottles in the fridges. Some Puhaste and some others. Not sure about how many taps, as they were hidden lower than bardesk. Good place to start. |
84 /100 Harry’s Jyväskylä (Bar) KAUPPAKATU 41 "The Old English Pub" on the front, seating for hundred on the pavement, very narrow door into the pub. Mahogany bull blood leather chairs and bar stools. 24 TAPS on desk. Eighties rock played, modestlly. Of course I found an english new to me. There were many english specialties. Maybe Rune could've got drunk here, hehehe. Kippis :)))
And re-visit august 2023, then I got the house beer brewed by Hiisi. |
64 /100 Bar Explosive (Bar) PUISTOKATU 1 Central location, but not laying in sun. Small bar. Eight taps. I took a chance on Newbarns Plain Dark Beer. |
60 /100 Mestarin Herkku Jyväskylä (Grocery Store) KAUPPAKATU 24 Master's Delicacy it means. Convenient grocery store centrally located. Small but nice bottle selection. |
70 /100 Teerenpeli Jyväskylä (Bar) KAUPPAKATU 32 If one stays in one of Scandic Hotels, this place is close. Also Explosive and Harry's (Old English Pub) are close. Very close. Poison inhalating people are sitting outside in the afternoon sun. Teerenpeli beers and a couple of ciders on twelve taps. I had a weizen and hot tapas. Alright place. |
70 /100 K-Citymarket Jyväskylä Palokka (Grocery Store) SAARIJÄRVENTIE 52 K-Citymarket is K-chain's hypermarket size grocery hall. Great car parking. Approximately 200 different beers available at my visit, which is great enough. Alko also has a department here, which i visited august 2023 and found ten news. Veldig bra. Hyvää |
56 /100 K-Supermarket Länsiväylä (Grocery Store) KAIVOKATU 1 The K-chain's K-Supermarket is an average grocery store size. K-Citymarkets are larger. However, beer selection in this was just okay. |
64 /100 Prisma Keljo Jyväskylä (Grocery Store) KYLMÄLAHDENTIE 8 Located about 4 kms to the south from Jyväskylä city. Great parking. Approximately 180 beers and fifty ciders. Special broad shelf-section for "viking malts" 34€ 25kgs, where also microbrewery 1000 Lakes is well represented. Nice pitstop. |
58 /100 Musta Kynnys (Bar) HANNIKAISENKATU 16 Interesting ambiance in this place. The old railway station building maybe? Airy, even a bit beer hall style interior. Beer selection is not very wide and the worth of checking only because the place is near railway and bus stations. During my second visit (June 2018) especially bottle selection was quite nice. They had even some Haandryggeriet on bottle. Upped points. |
90 /100 Harry’s Jyväskylä (Bar) KAUPPAKATU 41 This review is relative to Finnish pubs, not globally.
In comparison with Jyväskylä pubs I find that Harry's Jyväskylä is one of the best pubs in Jyväskylä for a beer enthusiast.
The selection changes quite often, there are often specialities and the selection has been chosen with care, i.e. they have tap beers that have "something special in them", so they've usually put thought into the selection.
The serving of the beer is always done in clean glasses that have been chosen to fit the beer style. This enables one to enjoy the beer to the fullest. The temperature of the beer is often also quite okay. Sometimes I've got a bit too cold stout, but it doesn't take too long to wait for it to warm a little bit.
The bartenders are friendly and often knowledgeable about the beers that they sell and can describe them as well as draw comparisons with something that the customer might have drank before. At least some of the bartenders are also beer enthusiasts themselves.
The interior design is warm and very English-style. Comfortable. The interior air is clean and obviously there's no smell of tobacco.
The prices are very reasonable. 7-10 euros for a properly served, medium-priced specialty beer is much more reasonable than 5 euros for a bulk lager (which is what one might have to pay in some bars).
Central location in the centre.
So one of the best pubs for beer enthusiasts in Jyväskylä. Possibly one of the best pubs in Finland as well.
Highly recommended.

68 /100 Teerenpeli Jyväskylä (Bar) KAUPPAKATU 32 Quite nice pub in the center of the city. Teerenpeli beers on tap. |
62 /100 Bar Explosive (Bar) PUISTOKATU 1 New "rising" craft beer bar in Jyväskylä. Located in the city centre. This is quite weird place. Opens early and place and customers look like people from typical dive bar who have had few too many (in their lifetime). But same time good beer selection - not so much on tap but some goodies on tap. Staff was very helpful and seems to know about their beers too. Worth of checking when you are in town. |
68 /100 Harry’s Jyväskylä (Bar) KAUPPAKATU 41 Location is very central in the city. Harry’s is easily the best pub in town very good tap selection (including real ale) plus some bottles. British pub ambiance, ok terrace for summer, friendly staff. Look for local Hiisi brewery beers on tap. |
90 /100 Vihreä Haltiatar (Bar) KAUPPAKATU 13 Nice cozy and living-room-like pub near central Jyväskylä. Good selection of bottles and usually Finnish micros on tap. (Always König Ludwig on tap.) Bearded bartenders are friendly and always helpful. Free jukebox is nice bonus.
Best place in Jyväskylä. |
68 /100 Musta Kynnys (Bar) HANNIKAISENKATU 16 Cosy "alternative" bar, nice staff and good live music every now and then. Beer selection isn’t too wide, still nowadays there is usually something interesting. Mostly local stuff from Hiisi. |
72 /100 Harry’s Jyväskylä (Bar) KAUPPAKATU 41 Centrally located cosy pub. Nice selection of taps and two casks. Harju Pale Ale brewed for them is also available. Friendly service and not too crowded (at least at the day time). |
92 /100 Harry’s Jyväskylä (Bar) KAUPPAKATU 41 Excellent pub! Stylish interior, many rooms, professional service, Premier League on tv, and above all big variety of good beers on tap. |
90 /100 Harry’s Jyväskylä (Bar) KAUPPAKATU 41 Usually very nice selection of draught beers, that changes often. Definately worth visiting. |
62 /100 K-Citymarket Jyväskylä Palokka (Grocery Store) SAARIJÄRVENTIE 52 Quite good beer selection for a Finnish supermarket. |
78 /100 Harry’s Jyväskylä (Bar) KAUPPAKATU 41 One of only a few good beer places in Jyväskylä |

70 /100 Alko Jyväskylä Keskusta Sokos (Beer Store) ASEMAKATU 8 Regular Alko |
80 /100 Vihreä Haltiatar (Bar) KAUPPAKATU 13 Nice beer pub, not many taps but selection of bottles more impressive. Cosy interior, low volume on music wich doesn’t disturb a normal conversation. Staff friendly. Was expectingn some Finnish micros on tap, a bit dissapointed. Will definately return though. |
46 /100 Roast (Restaurant) VAPAUDENKATU 73 Bar/restaurant at the Scandic hotel. Has just basic boring lager taps and some bottles including some German beers. Food OK, beers not. If you’re staying at the hotel OK to visit, otherwise not worth the walk. |
82 /100 Vihreä Haltiatar (Bar) KAUPPAKATU 13 Nice peaceful place with good selection of many kinds of drinks. |
70 /100 Vihreä Haltiatar (Bar) KAUPPAKATU 13 This is the best place in Jyväskylä for rare beers. This cozy and a bit dusty bar has interesting ambiance and friendly, beer-knowing staff. Vihreä Haltijatar (Green Fairy) has had regulary eg. Stadin Panimo’s (from Helsinki) beers on tap. Recommended if you visit Jyväskylä. |
72 /100 Vihreä Haltiatar (Bar) KAUPPAKATU 13 Wish I could visit here more often. Have seen here more hard-to-get beer than anywhere else. |
82 /100 Vihreä Haltiatar (Bar) KAUPPAKATU 13 By far the best place to go for a good beer in Jyväskylä. Excellent selection, too bad they aren’t all on sale simultaneously since there’s limited storage space behind the counter. Nice atmosphere and friendly bartenders. Worth a visit. |
74 /100 Vihreä Haltiatar (Bar) KAUPPAKATU 13 Small ordinary looking bar in Jyväskylä City. Quite good selection of beers, some seasonals and hard-to-gets. At least best rating place around. Prices are alright too. Worth trying if you’re in Jyväskylä. |
