Big and ample place and a very nice summer terrace. Even with a playground for children (not that I would admit going to a bar with a child) A BIg bonus is that they make their own beers. I recommended.

Restaurant with their own brewery (you can also buy beers to take with you). Koulu’s beers differ from year to year, but especially Portteri and Maisteri are worth of testing. Food is reasonably priced and OK. Just remember to order your snacks/cheese/food to have with bear/wine early enough, because kitchen closes pretty early.

Building is beautiful, service is extremely poor, liver is good, the beers are dull and I’m not much of a fan.

Beautiful old school building. Selection includes pretty much their own brews and not really anything else worth mentioning. Luckily they do have a few nice beers of their own. The food is great.

Still decked out like a school. It’s a good selection of one brewery’s beer, at least. Their darker ones are particularly good. Pucker food. Crazy-golf and live music (including sing-alongs - be afraid) in the yard in summer time.

Nice place to have beers, in an old school, which has been re-built into a brewery and restaurant. Food quality varies from delicious to not that special (during some bigger holidays it’s sos busy it is useless to order anything bigger...). Nice selection of own brewed 4-7 beers at a time. In summertime the "Schoolyard" is also in use. Friendly staff.

A big, stylish beautiful place with lots of different sections. Some bartenders are really keen about talking about their beers. Sadly the beers themselves are not as interesting as the rest of the package.

Serves their own beers with few others. This is an old school building so there is lots of space and interesting atmospheare. Koulu is School in Finnish.

I’m not the biggest fan of their beers. The building is quite interesting - it’s in a big old school so the world rambling doesn’t even begin to describe it. Giant rooms, monster back yard (school yard). Service wasn’t the best but it was neat to visit nonetheless.

Wonderful building with lots of rooms. Nice beer garden outside - dog friendly. Largest brewery restaurant in Finland.
