Lonely Planet review for Olde Hansa

If you'll splurge just once in Tallinn, here's where to do it. This medieval-themed restaurant (more authentic than kitsch!) boasts first and foremost the most ebullient and friendly service in the city, plus exotic meats (elk, wild boar) and homemade delights like juniper cheese and honey beer. It's a fun atmosphere inside or out on the terrace, and the food and its creative presentation is always first-rate.

    A great find in Old Town Tallinn

    ccasserino recommends this,

    This restaurant makes you feel like you've taken a step back in time. The mood, the music, and the food and drink are all Medieval in nature. One person in our party requested a Coke to drink, to which the waitress politely responded, "I'm sorry, there was no such drink in Medieval times." We ordered the Merchants Feast, which was pricey ($65 USD), but they brought more food than was humanly possible to consume, and all of it very tasty. All ingredients and preparation techniques reflect the Medieval period. The honey beer is also good, though it gets a little sweet after about two of them, and they really pack a punch.

    In summary, the food and drink were good, and hearty, the atmosphere and service were great. The location makes it ideal if you are walking around the Old Town and want to finish your day with a nice dinner experience.
