9 editor picks in Helsinki.
9 bars in Helsinki, editor-picked for bars open late. Bars serving past 23:00. All bars in Helsinki.
Liberty or Death on Erottajankatu is one of Helsinki's most ambitious cocktail bars, with a seasonal menu built on fresh and unusual ingredients.
TipSit at the bar and ask the team to steer you. The menu shifts with the seasons, so trust the bartender's pick.
Trillby & Chadwick is a hidden Kruununhaka cocktail bar styled as a 1900s detective agency, with no sign, just a buzzer, and drinks built to order.
TipLook for the unmarked door and ring the buzzer. Cocktails run around 17 euros; reserve, as the room is tiny.
Chihuahua Julep on Erottajankatu drew international notice for its agave-leaning cocktails and a no-phone policy that keeps the room conversational.
TipPhones go away at the door by house rule. Come for the mezcal and tequila drinks and stay for the focused atmosphere.
HogoHuene on Viides linja in Kallio is a rum-focused cocktail bar with a deep back-bar and a tiki-tinged menu that the city's drinks crowd seeks out.
TipThe rum selection is the reason to come; let the bartenders build something around a bottle you have not tried.
Siltanen on Hämeentie is a Kallio mainstay, a bar and terrace by day and a club by night, with weekend DJs, a big summer terrace and pizza to share.
TipThe terrace is the summer draw; the back room turns into a dance floor late on weekends. Cash or card, casual dress.
Tislaamo in the old Teurastamo abattoir district is a distillery bar pouring gin and whisky from its own still, with cocktails built around the house spirits.
TipSet in the Teurastamo food-and-drink yard. Order a gin made on the still you can see behind the bar.
Struts on Fleminginkatu is a Kallio cocktail and queer bar with a welcoming room, a tight cocktail list and weekend DJs, a hub of the area's nightlife.
TipA friendly Kallio cocktail bar with a queer crowd and weekend DJs. Drinks are well made without the speakeasy formality.
Haka on Toinen linja near Hakaniemi is a craft-beer bar pouring Finnish and guest taps for the Kallio crowd, built around the glass not the decor.
TipA no-frills beer bar near the Hakaniemi hall. Check the tap list for small Finnish breweries you will not find downtown.
Harju 8 on Harjutori is a Kallio corner that works as a cafe by day and a wine-and-beer bar by night, with outdoor tables facing a quiet neighbourhood square.
TipCoffee in the morning, natural wine in the evening. The square-facing tables are the spot on a warm Kallio afternoon.
