Õuemaja
This popular no-frills restaurant serves decent, not terribly healthy food in a hurry. Noted writer and linguist Johannes Aavik and his musician cousin Joosep Aavik once lived here.

Stoory Cellar
During the summer this café's grassy backyard, perched on the edge of the lake, makes a lovely setting for a drink. It serves food, but the only thing commendable is the freshly grilled shashlik.

Pärnu's most stately dining room serves up delicately prepared Chateaubriand, rack of lamb and other favourites amid 1920s grandeur. The plush chairs in the bar and café make a cosy spot for coffee and crème brûlée.

Lümanda Söögimaja
In a red house on the main road in Lümanda, this cosy country place serves tasty freshly prepared meals (fish soup, pork with turnips, white fish and potatoes) made with only organic ingredients. Beer-lovers should try the somewhat sour home-brew.

Haapsalu Kuursaal
Inside a beautiful 1898 spa hall, you'll find international, somewhat overpriced fare, but the seaside setting and surrounding rose garden are a big draw. Come for coffee, cocktails or the concerts and performances held here. Check website for listings.
