A Finnish church in Rotherhithe with shop and cafe attached.
bob visited on a Sunday afternoon in August 2009. You have to get buzzed in but this wasn't a problem. I visited the shop section which had a lot of Finnish sweets and other Finnish food (notably including frozen sauteed reindeer). I bought a pack of hot Tyrisk pepper sweets for £2.40.
They also provide hostel accommodation and a sauna. They host an annual Finnish Christmas bazaar.
