We cycled to the top of this hill for the views and were not disappointed. The views are excellent. This place also rents a little cottages with shared toilets/showers and you can also camp around the area for €7 per person price also includes use of sauna. Things are not in perfect condition but offset by the location in my view. The restaurant itself is ok great views and food was good.

Karingsunds Gasthamn Bodegan

Reviewed By michaelmW1446UM

It was dark and rainy and cold when we visited. We were one of only a handful of tables that had patrons. Service was great, though our waitress English was a little hard at points, but that made it even more memorable. My wife and I had a great time here in that we just got to really enjoy the views (the place is right on a little boat basin) and cracked a few jokes with each other that were memorable. We got a burger and nachos and they both were just ok. The food will not make this place memorable though, but none the less we will never forget it for the fun we had.

This place is eye-wateringly expensive (especially for British customers right now) but the food is mostly fantastic and the service is also very good. We loved the interior of the restaurant too. The quantities of most things we ordered were enormous. We ordered the seafood platter for 3, for a family of 2 adults and 2 children, but we think the 2 person one would have been sufficient for us (especially as we had a couple of starters too). The "chocolate pralines" for dessert were, however, a total rip off: €7 for two small chocolates (the sort you get in a chocolate box) and a couple of strawberries, on a plate. That's ridiculous, sorry. Notably this is also the first Finnish restaurant we have been to which bucked the refreshing Finnish practice of discouraging tipping - our waiter explicitly told us how to add a tip onto the card bill, and the restaurant rings a big bell whenever they get a tip.

Ala Carte restaurant in the west harbour of Mariehamn. Enjoy the evening sun and sunset on our terrace or inside the restaurant. During the high season we do serve lighter dishes from the terrace menu.

Been here a few times and the outdoor seating by the ocean in this fabulous summer weather is superb. Good service and great food. Try the shrimp sandwich, one of the best I have hadThanks a lot for this fine review. Best regards Åss paviljongen crew.

The food was very good, according to everyone in our party. We had a bit of a misunderstanding about our 10-year-old's order of a plain hamburger, but the skillef staff solved the problem in no time with s brand new hamburger. Impressive!The old boat was a great atmosphere for a restaurant and the view out ovwr Mariehamn's boat harbor was fantastic.

Bumped into this restaurant after visiting Kastelholm Castle. Indeed a surprised to be greeted by the famous chef/owner Michael Björklund. We enjoyed the Easter buffet and good service. The starter was excellent with cured salmon and varieties of pickled sill. The main course of lamb was superb! Ending the heavy lunch with the lot of delicious desserts. Highly recommended.Easter is great :-) Nice to have you here, welcome back!

The 'Indigo' has a very central location and is - together with next door 'Dino's' - about the only restaurant bar, which doesn't close too early here. We sat both times that we came here in the summer patio - no wonder with the warm weather of July. Service was the best we encountered in Mariehamn.They have light, bistro style dishes on offer and we were happy with what we ordered. My daughter had a 'Chevresalad' with French goat cheese, my son in law both times the Steak Sandwich, while I tried once the Roast Beef (Rabiff) and once the Swedish classic 'Toast Hagen', with prawns, here in mayonnaise, not sour cream, then with dill, red onion and as an extra topped by 'white fish roe'. Dishes can be had as small or big portions. Prices are reasonable in generally expensive Mariehamn.

Nautical

Reviewed By saronic

After visiting the interesting Maritime Museum mid-afternoon I felt like a coffee and once more an 'Aland's Pannkaka', the probably best known culinary speciality of the islands. I had already tried it at other places, in the two classical versions 'Sviskonkräm' (with prunes) and 'Hallonsylt' (with raspberries). Outside the Maritime Museum there is a café with pleasant and casual outdoor seating, not surprisingly called 'Nautical'.The 'Aland's Pannkaka' I got here was with a thinner pancake, together with strawberry jam as well as fresh strawberries and with a fluffy whipped cream, all quite different to what I had so far. If it was maybe not the completely original version of that dish, it suited my taste and it ended up being the 'Aland's Pannkaka' I enjoyed most.
