Drinks & Nightlife
If you want to experience an authentic Finnish bar go to Molotow. They have cheap beer so it is usually crowded but you can usually find a place to sit and might soon find yourself playing Yazzy with a random crowd.

Electronic dance music and the best soundsystem in Europe. A bit pricey but it's usually worth it if you want to go out to dance and have a good time. Also Kuudes Linja next door hosts some nice events and clubs. Check the line-up from their Facebook page.
