Budget & Tips Estonia
Estonia. Tallinn's restaurants have multiplied at a dizzying pace, and you'll find all the world's cuisines here. However, don't miss the chance to sample real Estonian cuisine in the capital's restaurants. Local produce and authentic culinary know-how will surprise even the most demanding palates. Prices are reasonable, but higher than in the other two Baltic capitals. However, it's the price of wine that makes all the difference, as bottles vary from very expensive to extremely expensive, depending on the restaurant. If you stick to beer, the bill will be much lower.
Latvia and Lithuania. Restaurants are plentiful and you can eat at a lower cost, especially in Latvia. Gourmet restaurants, in particular, are much less expensive than in France, for example.
What costs extra Estonia
Tipping is not compulsory, but if you enjoyed the service, it's a good idea to leave around 10%.
As far as water is concerned, restaurants and bars generally don't provide carafes, but rather a bottle. It's best to avoid tap water, especially in certain areas of capital cities and towns.
