Pizza and a good place for a chill evening. Tenho offers live music often, check out their schedule. I recommend their live jazz Sundays, live performances start at 8 pm but I recommend getting a table earlier.

Saunas - Harju/Kallio

You haven't experienced Helsinki OR Finland if you haven't been to a sauna. Some of these are very traditional and some might say rough - when the local buildings didn't have running water, these saunas were where people came to bathe.
The classic scene is seeing naked people in towels sitting on the sidewalk outside of the sauna. Perfect combination with Harju8 as they’re next to each other. "Traditional wood-fired sauna offering an old-timey atmosphere & limited refreshments (BYOB)." *Please note no swimming suits* Men & women separate.

This started off with a few people deciding to build a sauna in a deserted industrial area. Much has changed since then, and this UG sauna has become a go-to place during the summer months! You'll find people there at noon and at 4 am. This is very DIY - no dressing rooms. If you're not comfortable with seeing nudity this might not be the place for you. Best accessed by bike but you can walk. Either walk all the way or take The metro one stop to Kalasatama and walk from there. Bring everything you need with you. Unisex. Expect nudity.
