We are finally getting a Starbucks in Finland, so far we’ve only had one at the airport. You’ve no idea how long I’ve waited for this to happen, thank you Starbucks for making my home town a better place! It’ll open on Wednesday, but we went to a small launch happening today with Alexa, so we got a little preview how it’s going to look. And pre-taste, we drank iced vanilla lattes and shared a carrot cake piece. I’ve never thought about ordering carrot cake when I’m at a cafe (I’m a cheese cake/brownie kind of person), but after tasting that piece of heaven, I definitely will. I have a feeling this place will become my second living room! We already imagined ourselves with Alexa blogging here with hot drinks and our MacBooks… Perfect!
Vihdoin saadaan Suomeen oma Starbucks Helsinki, tätä onkin odotettu vuosikaudet! Sinne lentokenttä-Starbucksiin ei ihan niin vain lähdetä, mutta nyt on niin kätevällä sijainnilla että! Kahvila aukeaa keskiviikkoaamuna kaikelle kansalle Akateemiseen katutasolle, mutta saatiin tänään jo Alexan kanssa kurkistaa pienessä lanseeraustilaisuudessa miltä paikka näyttää – ja maistuu. Juotiin vanilja ice lattet ja jaettiin porkkanakakkupala, mm se oli niin taivaallista. En ikinä kahvilassa tilaisi normaalisti porkkanakakkua, mutta Alexan vakuuttelun jälkeen päätin kokeilla, ja varmasti sitä vielä saatava! Vielä tuntejakin myöhemmin huokaisin ääneen että ah, se kakku. Hah! Sellainen fiilis, että täällä tulee vietettyä vielä paljon aikaa. Macbookit vaan mukaan, kahvit + herkut, niin eiköhän bloggaaminenkin sujuisi. Voisin vuokrata jonkun pöydän pysyvästi työhuone käyttöön, onnistuisko? ;-D
PS, kesällä aukeaa vielä terassi eteen Stockmannin suuntaan, kuinka täydellistä!
PPS, Terkut sille ihanalle myyjätytölle, joka tunnustauduit lukijaksi, piristit mun päivän! Saa yllättyä kerta toisensa jälkeen kuinka upeita tyyppejä lukee tätä blogia.
Grabbed one of these with me home, now it’s calling my name… It’ll be a little night snack!
Tälläinen lähti vielä paperipussissa kotiin, yum!

Better don’t put your coffee on your iphone, knowing your luck to losing phones this might start the new trend with drowning them 😀

Hahah you’re funny, and probably right, with my luck I have to be super careful 😀

Oh godness I hope it will come to Estonia as well! I guess in the meantime I have to visit Helsinki for Starbucks 😀

Voguerka says
Ohh I love Starbucks 🙂 They have lovely coffee but I’m a real fan of their hot chocolate. Strongly recommended on chilly days, there’s nothing better than that. Seeing this piece of carrot cake made me have a craving for it right now 🙁
Delicious. I’d love to sip a coffee or two in your company in that Starbucks :*
Love, Daria xoxo
Juliette says
I love Starbucks, one of my favorite coffee shops. I always ask for a Mocha Frappuccino and a Blueberry Muffins. So delicious..
I have a to go mug from Starbucks that I take everywhere with my coffee in the morning.
Lucky you. I’m waiting and hoping they’ll open one here 🙂

Ahhh tää on niin paras juttu vähään aikaan! Oon kävellyt tilan ohi monet kerrat ja yrittänyt katsoa, että joko siellä lukisi avajaispäivämäärä ja tänään kuuliin tosta lehdistötilaisuudesta, niin oikein kylmät väreet meni kun innostuin niin paljon! x) Tästä taitaa tulla aika monen ykköshengailupaikka! 😀

Kiitos kurkistuksesta – tämä auttoi vähän poltteeseen. Tuota aukeamista on odotettu kyllä malttamattomana!
Tietää mistä minut löytää jatkossa. Ja mahtavaa, että joulumukit ja varmasti myös maut ovat heti saatavilla. Keskiviikkoa odotellessa…
marianna says
Eipä mitään, tänään varmaan riittää vilskettä siellä 🙂
Vitri says
Caramel Mocha Latte is the best! In the last sommer there was a special edition “Matcha Green Tea Frappuccino”, soooo delicious <3

Sara G. says
Of course I am a Starbucks lover! I think that if I could, I’d buy everything over there.
I have a lot of mugs and I like to drink teas on it.
I don’t really like cofee but I like chocolate things so hot chocolate with milk and some caramel is fine for me, their cookies are super big and super awesome too!
I have the same gilet btw, is it from Zara?
Love xx

OMG I love Starbucks! 🙂 if you’re looking for something sweet, their white chocolate mocha is amazingggg in fapacchino or coffee form 🙂 better than hot chocolate if you ask me!
Glad to know there is a Starbucks in finland now!

Iced Passion Tea Lemonade! It is the best summer drink 🙂
Anna says
FINALLY! I still remember when I was my first time in Helsinki and there was no Starbucks 🙁 and then this summer I saw that it was supposed to open soon. 🙂 now I can have my Starbucks drink when I’m in HEL in 2 weeks 🙂
And you can finally have you Chai tea latte whenever you want! 🙂 it’s also my all time fav. And I love the double chocolate muffin. Ah I’m so happy for you as I couldn’t imagine a life without Starbucks as we have about 14 shops in Hamburg. Lucky me!
And Marianna, you looked lovely! You haven’t done your hair like this in ages! 🙂 please do a new outfit post soon! x
Christine says
I can’t believe you guys are just getting Starbucks!! I love the caramel frappuccino lite… of course you have to try the pumpkin spice latte because it’s seasonal… and my signature drink as of late is a simple coffee but I like to order a grande coffee in a venti cup so i have enough room for milk 🙂
Enjoy!!
I love your posts, always!

Cinz says
Wow, you captured a lot of pretty and festive snapshots of Starbucks!!! My fave cold drink is caramel frap and fave hot drink is chai tea latter!!!! Not sure about fave food but they had a sea salt caramel cheesecake last year that I completely drool over everytime I see it, lol
I just had my gingerbread latte this morning on my way to work, feels so Christmasey!!!:D

MAHTAVAA! Oon odottanut Starbucksia johonkin kaupunkiin saapuvaksi vuosia! Nyt pitää tekosyy tulla Helsinkiin 😀 Sitten istun siellä joka ikinen päivä kun Helsingissä oon 😀
Jääkahvit on ihan parhaita. Cafe latte soijamaitoon jollain makusiirapilla myös, suosittelen.
Ei muuten ole Starbucksin lattea voittanutta tullut ikinä vastaan, vaikkakin hyviä kakkosia saa Coffee Housesta.
marianna says
Hahaa no niinpä! Joo ai että meillä on varmaan vähän samanlainen maku, soijamaitoon joku kevyt kahvi makusiirapilla = <3 !
Sandra Bachmann says
I had NO IDEA that Starbucks were opening in Helsinki 😀 yayyy! I’ll go check it out on Friday 😀 I’m super happy now 🙂 I havent been living in Finland for very long, so it’s nicer to find new things from your blog that intrest me 🙂
Aimee says
I always go for the hot chocolate or tea and for something to eat I usually get a glazed doughnut =)
Ida says
Oh yes! Tätä on odotettu! Heti, kun täältä Lapista pääsee taas kotikonnuille, niin suuntaan sinne! Nam. 😀 Starbucks Rovaniemelle? Anyone?
Ihan parasta ja nämä sun herkulliset kuvat ei yhtään helpota.. 😀 Ja ps löysin blogisi uudelleen pitkästä aikaa ja tykkäilen kovasti! Ihanan raikas. 🙂

I’m addicted to the latte machiato caramel. It’s soooo good! Especially since there is no starbucks in the area 🙁 x
Nina says
Skinny latte – my love! I also should have shares in Starbucks, I drink there almost everyday <3
And you definitely need to try : LOW FAT BLUEBERRY MUFFIN – they're taste like heaven! 🙂

OMG it looks so yumi! I hope we can get Starbucks insted of Espressohouse here in Trollhättan, Sweden! We have one Starbucks in Gothenburg but its to far away for just getting some coffee 🙁
Charlotte says
I do love Starbucks – especially their Salted Caramel Mocha – new coffee flavours are one of my favourite things about winter!
Have you ever been to a Café Nero? They’re all over England but I’m not sure which other countries have them. They do the most incredible Hot Chocolate Milano which is pretty much just like drinking melted chocolate. Great for a treat but it’s almost a meal in itself!

in Turkey Sturbucks is just water and no coffee)))
Simone says
I love Starbucks, but I never tried it until I lived in Dubai from 2003 to 2005. There I had something about 3 times a week, it will always remind me of “my” Dubai.
Then I moved to Finland and on my first day out in Helsinki I asked for a Starbucks. I was really surprised to hear there are none, so I settled on Robert’s Coffee.
But now it is there, nice!
We have I think 2 Starbucks here in my town (not for long yet), so I am not so longing anymore, but I will head to the outlet in Helsinki the next time I am there to see if they have different coffees 🙂
I like everything with caramel and chocolate and at Christmas times I usually order a specialty coffee.
Enjoy your Starbuck’s 🙂

Helen says
Amazing!!! I´m in Helsinki for business next week! Its been 7 months since i last had Starbucks coffee, CANT wait!!!!! Where is it located exactly?? :)))
Julia says
Starbucks is great 🙂
I waited for it for so long too. when it finally opened a store in my hometown, i was happy too.
now these days i am addicted to the chai tea latte. and the gingerbread latte is amazing. if they offer it at your store, you should try it :)!

Memmu says
Aaah, yksi syy lisää ootella Helsinki visiittejä! Mie oon jotenki onnistunu pääsemään starbucksiin aina vain syksysin, joten sillon oon joka kerta herkutellu Pumpkin Spiced Lattella, joka on tosi hyvää. Mutta ehottomasti ykkössuosikki on venti-kokoinen cappucino ♥
marianna says
Voi toi kuulostaa ihanalta, pakko vielä kokeilla! Niin valinnan vaikeus kun kaikki suositukset täällä tuntuu siltä että pitää päästä maistaan! 😀
oh god no says

Grande caramel apple spice with caramel syrup instead of cinnamon dolce. It’s to die! 🙂

MajtkiRambo says
Actually Starbucks does not not make me happy at all, athough a lot of young people in my country were enthusiatic abouts its launch here. One year ago I went to New York and everywhere I looked around there was Starbucks. No other cafes, just this chain cafe. It’s actually kind of sad. I’m glad that in Poland we still have a lot of small cafes with delicious coffee and one of a kind atmosphere.
