Café Engel

Café Engel is a classic café located in the heart of Helsinki. Situated in the historic House of Sunn on the edge of Senate Square, one of the oldest stone buildings in the city, originally constructed in 1765. The facade of the building, as well as several iconic structures around the Senate Square, including Helsinki Cathedral, were designed by the renowned 19th-century architect Carl Ludvig Engel. As part of Helsinki's cultural history, Café Engel offers not only delightful food and beverages but also a breathtaking view and a unique ambiance.
