On the western fringe of Kassari Village, this dark and atmospheric tavern (dating from 1843) offers hefty serves of simple food such as herring with cottage cheese and potato. Tiny barrel-shaped wooden cabins are set amid the surrounding apple orchard and camping is also possible, although bathroom facilities are rudimentary. There’s also a two-bedroom apartment above the tavern.
