Relaxed atmosphere

Ravinteli HAARLA is the latest ode to good food from restaurateurs Pekka Salmela and Mika Roito, who have already become legends in the culinary scene. The duo are known for their laid-back fine dining restaurant Bertha and meat restaurant Huber.

“With Haarla, we wanted to create a place where people could drop by for mussels and a beer, for example. The menu consists mainly of European restaurant classics with a brisk attitude, and each customer can choose their combination, whether they want to enjoy a big or smaller meal. In addition to tasty and unpretentious food, it is absolutely essential for us to offer a great service with a human touch,” says Salmela.

A low-threshold backyard restaurant

“The building where Haarla is located is quite noble and that’s why we emphasise that we are a backyard restaurant in Tampere. Even our entrance is literally in the backyard. We want to make it easy for anyone who likes good food to come here, have a good time, and keep coming back,” says Roito.

At Haarla, our professional and friendly staff will ensure that your restaurant experience is smooth and successful in every way. Whether you’re stopping by after a busy day or enjoying a romantic evening out, a good atmosphere is always guaranteed at Haarla.
