6th floor restaurant

Come for brunch, lunch, or dinner

During the summer months, the restaurant is also open during the day (see opening times). In addition to brunch on Saturdays and our à la carte menu in the evenings, we offer a more casual lunch from 12 PM to 4 PM, Tuesday to Saturday. Come by for a good time — the rooftop is waiting.

Punk Michelin

Above the Fotografiska Tallinn museum, a rooftop playground awaits — part restaurant, part bar, part garden terrace, and all kinds of unforgettable. With 360° city views and a vibe that shifts with the seasons, it’s where nature, art, and culture collide.

This isn’t your average dining spot. It’s a bold leader in Estonia’s sustainable food scene, turning humble veggies into rockstars (yes, even beetroot has a wild side). Think plant-powered plates, organic ingredients, zero-waste magic — with a little meat and fish for good measure.

The wine? Handpicked. The cocktails? Local legends in a glass. Whether you’re sipping at sunset or feasting with friends, it’s all served with a generous splash of creativity, and a twist of punk.

It’s this trailblazing, future-forward approach that’s earned the restaurant the Michelin Green Star four years running, along with high praise from Falstaff Nordic and the 360°Eat Guide.

Brunch on Saturdays

Saturdays are made for long, lazy breakfasts — and we’ve got just the brunch for it. Join us from 12 PM to 4 PM for a laid-back, flavour-packed experience. Whether you're bringing friends, family, or your furry companion, everyone’s welcome.

Fotografiska brunch celebrates sustainability and global inspiration. Enjoy familiar breakfast favourites with a twist, discover new seasonal creations, and don’t miss the hearty picks from our regular menu. Add a little sparkle with something from the bar — it's your Saturday, after all.

We always operate a bit outside the lines— but that’s what makes it interesting

In fall 2024, we kicked off a new chapter at Fotografiska restaurant, sparked by a playful, museum-inspired idea: even Michelin can be punk! It’s a playful reminder that food, like art, can surprise you, challenge you, and start conversations — especially if it’s shared.

We stay true to our creative vision, finding joy and excitement in the purest ingredients and proving that humble veggies can be cool, too (yes, even beetroot can be punk!). Our plates are powered by organic, locally sourced produce — with a little sustainably sourced meat and fish tagging along for the ride.

Gerli Travkin, Head Chef of the Fotografiska restaurant, draws inspiration from the diversity of global cuisines and the art of blending local ingredients with techniques from various culinary traditions. Passionate about vegetables, she has a knack for turning humble produce into absolute rockstars — playful, vibrant, and full of personality. Pure, honest ingredients and a commitment to sustainability lie at the heart of her signature style; for her, cooking without waste is simply the right way to cook.

Guiding the restaurant’s commitment to sustainable flavors is Aldur Soosalu, Fotografiska’s Sustainable Food Lead. He oversees sourcing, waste management, and practices across our entire food operation.

Locally sourced & organic

Every ingredient we use at the restaurant is locally or regionally grown and harvested — some of it we grow ourselves —, and some are sourced from the wild through foraging — a practice deeply rooted in Estonian heritage and culture. Additionally, our rooftop garden is home to a variety of herbs and spices and in summer, three buzzing bee families call Fotografiska home, zipping around to collect the juiciest bits of the season.

We are hands-on from the harvesting and sourcing, and everything is used from blossom to root. Our restaurant follows the rhythm of the seasons, and during peak harvest time — when fresh ingredients are coming in from every direction — one of the most important skills is being able to preserve and jar all that abundance. These skills carry us through the colder months, helping us hold on to the bright, local flavors of summer.
