Ravintola Piha

Ravintola Piha is a bright and welcoming restaurant set in a historic former factory courtyard in Tampere’s Hämeenpuisto area, perfect for enjoying a relaxed lunch buffet (lounasbuffet) or hosting special celebrations. The spacious and light-filled dining space makes every visit feel warm and inviting, whether dropping in for a weekday buffet lunch or planning a private party or corporate event. Piha is well-known for its lounas (lunch) featuring an abundant buffet of classic and seasonal dishes that change throughout the week, offering comforting soups, fresh salads and satisfying hot mains that appeal to a wide range of tastes and diets.

At Piha’s lunch buffet, guests can expect dishes like siskonmakkarakeitto (sausage soup) with hearty vegetables, paneroitua broileria & chilimajoneesia (breaded chicken & chili mayonnaise) with roasted vegetables, kukkakaalicurry & riisiä (cauliflower curry & rice) with fragrant spices, and vuohenjuustosalaatti viikunahillolla (goat cheese salad with fig jam) that brings tangy sweetness and creamy texture. Other favourites often include mausteinen myskikurpitsakeitto (spiced butternut squash soup) and kaalikääryleitä & puolukkahilloa (cabbage rolls & lingonberry jam) for a taste of comforting Nordic home-style cuisine.

Piha also offers tailored pitopalvelu (catering) and event services for celebrations of up to 80 guests, creating bespoke menus for weddings, birthdays, anniversaries, and other gatherings. Catering menus range from fresh vihersalaattia (green salad) with seasonal vegetables and lemon vinaigrette to elegant mains like slow-braised angus entrecote (entrecôte) with port-wine sauce and rich desserts such as creamy pannacotta (pannacotta) with roasted white chocolate and berries.
