Best burgers in Tallinn. They have a very short menu, but what they do offer, they do well. Order your burger (we love the veggie falafel burger) or kimchi fries, then go next door to Põhjala’s Speakeasy for a pint.

Katariina Quai is something totally different to the bustling theme park that is the old town and you deserve a medal if you've manage to get here on your own, cause it's a lot of zig-zagging through a Soviet-looking industrial area. Biking or driving are the best options, walking can take you at least an hour. There's a nice beach and a quay to get a nice view of Tallinn from a distance.

The Soviets built this thing for the Olympic regatta of 1980 set to take place in Tallinn. The idea was to demonstrate to the Western powers the superior concrete pouring skills of the Soviet Union. This would've been a great idea, if everybody wasn't so busy boycotting the games.
