Just a couple of years ago Tartu didn't have many shopping options. In the 2010s though, the picture is much better. There are many big (for example the new and ever-expanding Tasku centre) and small stores to choose from. Little shops keep popping up like mushrooms after the rain, pleasing your eye and mind, but not your wallet. And that's not because they are that expensive, but because the things they offer (like hand-made jewellery and clothes) are so beautiful you will probably want to buy everything. There isn't a better place to purchase unique items that no one else in the world has than in the “hippie” town of Estonia- Tartu.

If you ever ask an Estonian about their national dishes, you'll at first be met with an empty and confused stare. After some time they might come up with two things. One is black bread and the other is Kalev chocolate.

Kaubamaja or THE mall is a great example of a well-organized department store. It’s fresh, clean, spacious, and stands just in the city centre. Not to mention the nice smell, shiny surfaces and elevator music, which create perfect conditions for spending way too much time there.

Five years ago these guys got tired of the poor wine selection in local supermarkets and decided to create a little piece of wine-heaven right to the heart of Tartu. This tiny shop has the best European wines and ciders to satisfy the neediest of tastes. Prices range from 6-12€ and you can be sure that you’ll get excellent quality for your money.

Whenever you are in need of fresh meat, fish, fruit or veggies, Tartu market is the place for you. Situated in the very heart of Tartu, this example of 1930s architecture is a landmark on its own. Although it may look cold and unwelcoming form the outside, it’s actually filled with lovely warm-hearted farmers selling their yummy homegrown goods.

Gambrinus is the only specialized beer shop in Tartu, and one of the very few in Estonia. There are more than three hundred sorts of beer from all over the world, and the variety is so wide that for a layman, some drinks won't even resemble beer. It's nice and comfy, and makes big fat men feel like kids in a candy shop.

Second hand shopping is definitely a thing in Estonia, especially here in the bohemian capital Tartu. Unfortunately we students tend to be rather poor, but that doesn’t stop the fashionistas from getting their hands on whatever is in this season.

Look for a sign in big blue letters that says "KUNSTIPOOD", meaning artshop, and you will find Mikkel's Gallery. But it is so much more than that - it's also a gallery and pottery and porcelain studio. You can buy some practical items or beautiful art pieces for your home.

It is rustic, but still with a warm feeling. A hands on museum where a lot of the machines are working and you can even try them out to make a postcard or notebook. They organise a lot of workshops, too, so there is always a reason to return.
