Aussie Bar

Over the top Aussie style, but genuine Aussie staff and genuine Aussie beer. A reasonable selection (9+) of beers from Australia and New Zealand, pretty good considering this is about as far away from Australia as it’s possible to be.

Good place to go if you’re horribly drunk and just want to drink bad beer and maybe pick up a chick or two. Otherwise not.

Been here a few times for the Aussie/Kiwi lagers. I got stuck chatting to the staff, who were nice, but seemed a bit non-motivated by their work. Beer selection is quite poor, you mainly get some Aussie/Kiwi lagers not found elsewhere. You got weird looks when asking for a glass for the beers. This is the meeting point for Aussies in Helsinki, and apparently also a lot of other random foreigners go here. If going alone, you won’t be alone here for long, as many people seem to go here to chat and have fun.

Been there a few times, as they had 3-4 Aussie/New Zealand lagers available. The staff is rude and couldn’t care less about beers (you have to ask for a glass separately!). Never been there when there’s more than a few customers, and I really don’t wanna know what it’s like when packed...

I added this because it’s quite a curiousity in Helsinki. I can’t remember how wide the selection was, but it has a lot of Australian beers which I haven’t seen anywhere else in Finland. The staff is noisy and speaks english with either an australian or british accent, I cannot tell. Beware of the music volume, you couldn’t even have a conversation when I was there and it was afternoon! Decos are quite over the top.. (re-rate, corrected/lowered rating).
