Lessner Bar

At this new creation by Kristjan Peaske, one of Tallinn’s gastronomic ambassadors, expect to drink (and eat – ordering from the neighbouring UMA restaurant) well. Lessner is where great drinks meet good vibes – a cozy corner spot where simplicity feels indulgent and every pour has a story. Regulars call it their second living room, newcomers call it a find.

Drinks Director Lisete Ruustalu keeps the soul of the place in the glass – cocktails rooted in classics, lifted by seasonal ingredients, and shaped by the bartender’s own rhythm. There’s also an intriguing wine list, great draft beers, and refreshing non-alcoholic options for when you want something easy but still exceptional.

Lessner Bar recommends: Blood Orange & Ginger – Cognac meets Pisco, blood orange and ginger soda in one juicy sip where harmony and spice collide.

Our choice: This fall asks for something dark like ‘Brown Butter & Raisin Old Fashioned’ to start, and an autumnal Bordeaux (a magnum of 2010 Sociando Mallet) to finish. Life is beautiful!
