Bea Basil

Founded in 2014, Bea Basil's mission was to offer restaurant-class dining outside of Riga's city center. It recently relocated from its original Jugla home to a new space in Grīziņkalns.

Hailed as a hidden gem, Bea Basil offers a warm, home-like dining experience in the heart of Grīziņkalns. This family-run restaurant earns overwhelming praise for its delicious, beautifully presented food that blends Latvian and international flavors. Diners consistently celebrate the friendly service and cozy atmosphere that makes them feel right at home. Beyond the main dining room, Bea Basil provides customized private event hosting, off-site catering, and unique "Cook with the Chef" masterclasses. The kitchen emphasizes local ingredients, like free-range eggs, and the in-house confectionery creates a variety of cakes and corporate gifts. The restaurant is also noted as being kid-friendly, with a children's corner available.
