Café Kvarnen

Top choice in Åland Archipelago


It's worth a special trip to tiny Jurmo to sample the organic steak at wonderful Café Kvarnen, near the pier. The steak is sourced from local long-haired highland cattle and seasoned with island herbs. Other delicacies include homemade sausages, burgers, locally caught fish and fantastic Åland pancakes.
