Koulu
This brewpub serves excellent beers brewed on-site and offers a great gastropub-style food menu (except for Sunday) in what used to be an 1880s-era school (koulu means school). It's an example of Turku's fondness for converting historic buildings to pubs and bars. School desks are given a second life, and there are school maps on the walls. There is an expansive beer garden in which an outdoor grill is set up in summer. A weekday lunch buffet is popular with local shop and office workers. If you have a hearty appetite, try the "Beer Master's Plate," with bratwurst, pork shank, chicken, and fried potatoes.
