Why not take a scenic tour through the countryside between Tampere and Helsinki? Along the way you may want to stop at the Koskenvoima Kiosk in Vesilahti to get a coffee with sweet-bread (Pulla in Finnish) which is soft in texture, bun shaped and has a taste of cardamom.

The Koskenvoima Kiosk is in between two roads. A yellow house like looking Kiosk, a yard with some spruce trees,outside benches.
Take a look just at the Kioski part...


See by comparison some of these other Kiosks in Finland which are more common types you see.

Opening hours: Mondays through Fridays 10 am to 5 pm
Saturdays and Sundays 12 am to 8 pm.



The Koskenvoima Kiosk has all kinds of gifts.Rosa is standing next to a mirrow displaying a small rock -like looking salts around a fog fountain.
Decorative stones,salts,little Teddy Bears and more gifts.Near a oval mirror.
Everything inside this Kioski is a gift with "for sale" price tags everywhere.

Notice the same mirror behind Rosa. Our table!
And now to order our lunch.


A plate with our lunch on the plate.Yes,the meal for all of us is on that plate!Superb mashed potatoes are real and not out of a "instant mashed potatoe" box.
Likely the reason people travel up here all the way from Helsinki to have lunch.
The owner used to run a similar "lunch lounas Kiosk" in Tampere.Word get's around that the food is especialy GOOD at this Kiosk in Vesilahti.
A closer look at our plate...
Others come here from nearby villages.This is a friendly place where,on each weekday a different variety of Finnish style home- made food is served. Soups are 4 euros and everything else is 6,50 euros. Our steak shaped patty made of hamburger...tender and fresh!! The Kiosk serves the best home-made food in Finland I have tried.
No chewy bits in the meat.Tomi had a "Lihapirakka." A type of minced meat mashed into some bread with a fried egg and two wieners in-between the breaded part. Hmmmm?

Carrot salad displayed on a plate.
Salad is served chilled.Raisins add that extra sweetness to the salad!


A closer look at our salad...
Altogether the four of us ate: 2 'Homemade Lunches',desert,extra soft drinks for the kids,coffee and a cake made of apricot layers with sweet and creamy icing,slightly chilled. Our bill: 23 euros! Not bad for restaurant grade food in a country Kiosk.


This Kiosk is also a basic country grocery store where you can find...


  • Milks!
  • Breads!
  • Candies,Chocolates!
  • Basic 'for-use-at-home' Consumables!
