I had a draught French Normandy cider which which pleasantly dry and very refreshing. Friends had a varied selection of local beers and they even had... More

The wife and I stopped by Porgu on Saturday evening 15th June, the garlic bread starter was good and strong, washed down with French cider, the duck main course was excellent washed down with a couple bottles of some raspberry beer which was good, the wife took a cheesecake for desert which was as good as any i've tasted.

Both eating and drinking here are great, the munchen vaskne beer is one of the best I've ever had and is less than 3 euro for a half litre. Food is also very good hearty stuff which won't leave you hungry

Porgu is a nice local place with the tone being set by the cool atmosphere from the dungeon like basement. Service was speedy and polite. Overall the food was somewhere between ok and good, some nice dishes a few misses (stay away from the garlic bread, they must have used 4-5 too many cloves on that and we all like... More

Loads of beers to a reasonable price. Great food. We had duck filet that was perfectly cooked and delicious sprats and mixed tapas for starters. Tapas almost too big! Service was great. Nice place to hang out with your friends. Not really a place to meet new aquaintances.

This was, by far, the best duck I have eaten ever. The food is cooked with care and the flavors make your mouth dance. Plus, a fine selection of beers and a great atmosphere overall. However, the menus is quite small when it comes to entrees.

I went to this place with a number of locals. Porgu is "hell" in Estonian, and is appropriately located down a rather steep set of steps in a basement near a church. There is a large beer selection with a mix of local and imported beers, including some that are unpasteurized (it is amusing to be asked if you have... More

A great beer list which seemed reasonably priced, even for imported beers. We also ate and food was very good too; seemed to use local ingredients.

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
