At Third Place, every meal is about connection and comfort.
We believe life’s better with fresh pasta, good wine, and music spinning in the background. Third Place isn’t just a restaurant — it’s a space to unwind, share stories, and feel at home, whether you’re here for a quick plate or an unhurried evening.

For töölö, and the rest of Helsinki
We bring inspiration from everywhere — kitchens, record shops, late-night conversations — to create a space that feels familiar, but never ordinary.
The menu is simple, satisfying, and always evolving — like a great playlist that keeps you coming back.
