Maiasmokk, the oldest working café

Maiasmokk (Sweet Tooth) is the oldest café in Estonia that is still working. It has served guests at the corner of Pikk and Pühavaimu streets in Tallinn's Old Town since 1864. The first bakery on the same spot opened even earlier, in 1806. The café's Biedermeier interior has stayed unchanged for almost a century. It sells pastries, handmade chocolates and marzipan figures, and the Kalev marzipan room also works in the house. Its address is Pikk 16, on the corner with Pühavaimu 1. A café that first opened its doors in 1864 still serves its guests in the same rooms today.

Eesti keeles

Maiasmokk, mille nimi tähendab maiustuste armastajat, on Eesti vanim praeguseni töötav kohvik. See on võõrustanud külalisi Tallinna vanalinnas Pika ja Pühavaimu tänava nurgal alates 1864. aastast. Esimene pagaritöökoda sündis samas kohas veelgi varem, 1806. aastal. Kohviku biidermeierinterjöör on püsinud muutumatuna ligi sajandi. Kohvik pakub pagaritooteid, käsitsi valmistatud šokolaadikomme ja martsipankujukesi, majas tegutseb ka Kalevi martsipanituba. Selle aadress on Pikk 16 ja Pühavaimu 1. Kohvik, mis avas uksed 1864. aastal, võõrustab külalisi samades ruumides tänapäevani.
