Our Take

Punavuori's Approachable Cocktail Bar

Runar is a small (24-seat) Punavuori cocktail bar with an Aki Kaurismäki-film aesthetic — dim warm lighting, leather banquettes, and a long mahogany bar. The cocktail program is precise and approachable, the prices reasonable.

The bartenders are former A21 and Trillby & Chadwick alumni. The cocktail menu runs 12 builds rotating quarterly. Cash and card friendly. Walk-in friendly weekday early evenings, reservations recommended for weekends.

Pair with A21 for a complete Helsinki cocktail evening.
