A friendly Helsinki institution for language-lovers, running most Monday evenings since 2005. Tables are labelled by language — pull up a chair at Finnish, Spanish, Arabic, whatever you fancy — and practise, swap stories and meet people from all over, drink in hand. It’s free (just buy something at the bar) and refreshingly informal. The host venue has shifted over the years. In its most recent listings the group met from 5pm on Mondays at Kallio Bar, Hämeentie 12, so check its Meetup page for the current venue before heading out.
While you’re in the city, pair it with a Helsinki food walking tour.
