Cafés
In Tampere - Review
of two
Cafes in/near the center of Tampere. Both worth
sipping over a coffee or to eat quick lunch. One is located
1.5 kilometers from the center of Tampere by lake Näsijärvi, a Space
Needle look-a-like, over 100 meters tall.
The waffle-cafe in Tampere is probably the prettiest little cafe in Tampere where waffles are served with different sweet/savory fillings.
In Vammala - Also called the Sastamala region - a 50 kilometers drive from Tampere. Both cafes are in the country, near two old churches. Interesting architecture, with genuine country atmosphere.
