Discover Finnish food culture the local way with Market Hall Like a Finn, a guided tasting experience that takes place entirely inside Helsinki’s Hakaniemi Market Hall.
Together, we’ll explore the hall’s stalls, meet the flavours that Finns grow up with, and learn how everyday Finnish food connects to the seasons, local traditions, and daily life. Along the way, you’ll sample a selection of sweet and savoury Finnish favourites while hearing the stories behind the ingredients, vendors, and customs that make market halls such an important part of Helsinki.
This is not a rushed walk-through of a list of foods. It is a relaxed opportunity to slow down, taste, ask questions, and experience the market as a local would. By the end, you will understand Finnish food culture a little better—and leave with practical recommendations for what else to eat and explore during your time in Helsinki.
