Tips & Advice

  • Book your table early through the manor's online booking, and email or phone the restaurant instead if you're a larger group.
  • Tell the restaurant about special diets ahead of your visit, and ask for the four-course vegan menu, which is always on offer.
  • Don't come expecting the regular à la carte menu, because only the Christmas lunch and dinner are served during the Christmas season.
  • Add the wine package if you want pairings: three glasses come with lunch and four with dinner, chosen to match the menu.
  • Drive out if it suits you, since the manor is only a few kilometres from central Jyväskylä and has a large free courtyard car park.

Special Events & Promotions

  • A separate Independence Day celebration dinner is offered on December 5, with a menu curated by the head chef.
