After-work: a lovely little expression that promises a break from the daily grind.

Deals combining drinks and food around the end of the working day have taken Helsinki’s restaurants by storm. And why not? It’s a win-win: customers get to enjoy eating out for less, while restaurants give people another reason to pop in. And perhaps stay for another round, because a good after-work drink has a habit of turning into a longer evening.

Most deals cost around €10–15 and usually include a drink and something small to eat. There are plenty of drinks-only offers at Helsinki’s restaurants and bars, too, but this list focuses on the combos.

There’s an after-work deal for just about every taste. In central Helsinki, Hans Välimäki and his partners’ French-inspired restaurants Bistro Bardot, Bouchon Carême and Brasserie Lionne serve €10 aperitivo deals for anyone dreaming of an afternoon in Paris. If you prefer a more relaxed neighbourhood bar, head to Pikku Eden in Alppiharju or Tales Wine Bar in Etu-Töölö.

And if you’re particularly hungry, the after-work deal at Forza in Punavuori includes a whole pizza.

Here are Helsinki’s best after-work deals right now. Cheers!
