The Top 29 Places to Eat Near Fellin

Tiled bar, mismatched artwork, and a laid-back bohemian mood inside a red brick building on the edge of Viljandi's Old Town. Fellin is a café-bistro where you can stop for coffee and cake or linger over a full European meal, with the house pasta drawing particular attention. The Michelin Guide awarded it a Bib Gourmand, and the cheerful, unhurried service goes a long way toward explaining why the room fills with all ages.

The name is a portmanteau of "joy" and "choice," which tells you something about the level of whimsy at work here. This split-level hotel brasserie attached to a shopping complex in Tartu runs a menu of creative Baltic and local dishes that start pretty and finish with real force. Drinks at the cocktail bar first, then dinner as the room fills and gets louder, which it does reliably as the night goes on.

A modern restaurant inside Hotel Lydia where the menu traces back to an actual family cookbook from the 1920s, belonging to the founders' grandmother. The cooking doesn't stay there, though: the team uses those old recipes as a starting point and pushes them somewhere ambitious and contemporary. The room matches the food, smart and current, without much nostalgia on display. It's the kind of place that earns its concept rather than just wearing it.

A whitewashed modern restaurant on the banks of the Emajõgi River, TOKO runs a short menu with international leanings, the kind of place that puts chicken thighs on a paratha and calls it a taco without irony. The rooftop terrace is the draw in summer. Part of the same family as NOA and Tuljak, it has the easy confidence of a group that knows what it's doing, and the caviar bump at the start suggests the kitchen isn't above a little luxury.
