Attended this place yesterday evening. Party of 7 in total. Pre booked after seeing the reviews on here. We were not disappointed. Selection of cheeses, garlic bread, pork ribs and sprat for starters (all very good but garlic very very strong). All then had the chicken or pork which I have to say was amazing. The mash was heavenly. The... More

This restaurant is one of my favourites now. I found this place last time i were visiting Tallinn and i loved it! Atmosphere is pleasant and staff very friendly. Food menu is short, but VERY tasty and big portions. For beer lovers this place is heaven with a wide selection of all different kinds of beer. Value for your money... More

We only had drinks here, but the bottled beer list wa extremely wide! I think also the food would've been alright. Very clean looking place and the atmosphere down in the cellar was great. And like always in Tallinn, the beer is fairly cheap.

Neat location and fun atmosphere with a really nice beer list at decent prices. The menu was somewhat limited but we shared a few appetizers and enjoyed ourselves. I was here with my wife and younger children and we all enjoyed ourselves and were made to feel welcome. The staff was friendly and, helpfully, could speak English.

Encouraged by the reviews that Porgu is serving good food I tried it out. But I wasted my time. I found that it was actually a beerhouse rather than a restaurant. Everybody was drinking, not eating. They also had no seats for solo-travellers although there were many empty tables. The waitress told me that I could sit at the bar,... More

Visited it in December and the place was so chilly. Food was good and beer too, but the temperature in the bar was just so low that I couldn't enjoy my beer.

Porgu, set-down in a cellar below the streets of Tallin, is a small restaurant serving typical Estonian dishes (think pork and potatoes) and a wide-ranging selection of local and international beers, many of which are draught. The English speaking waitress was a joy during our visit and was helpful in explaining the menu. The grub was very tasty and the... More

I had only one day in Tallin with some friends and we found this restaurant located in the Old Town. A sign on the street says "Porgu". You must walk through a wooden door and then down some stairs in a Medieval European style. The Restaurant is in the basement. Long list of beers and a cuisine centred on Scandinavian/Central...

good selection of beers (~10 from the tap, two pages of bottled beer) and very very good food! it needs at least 100 characters, but there is nothing more to add :) well, service was good as well.
