Kosmos

Kalevankatu 3, 00100 Helsinki

The family-owned restaurant was opened on August 6th in 1924. Today, Kosmos is run by the 4th generation of the restaurant’s owner. The décor is easy going and the service is thoughtful. The classic European gastronomy has remained the same from decade to decade. In addition, the long-lasting staff has always been a part of the Kosmos family. The owner’s son has taken after his father as a cloakroom attendant and the experienced chefs and servers, with their incomparable expertise, have created unforgettable experiences for customers for over 30 years.

Regular customers have enjoyed Kosmos’ universe for decades: presidents, artists, businesspeople, students and, last but not least, travellers who seek the experience of an authentic Finnish restaurant culture. All these individuals have found their way to Kosmos and enjoyed its atmosphere and traditional cuisine.

The history of Kosmos is filled with memories of a well-lived life, unforgettable people and great food. The most important things for us has always been our customers and our original, straightforward and broad-minded business idea: to serve “impartially the wealthy and the poor, the civil elite and everyday customers”.
