We want food to taste like food!
The world is full of amazing flavors. Kerubi can only be found in Joensuu. Because we want to be both here and there, our dishes combine flavors of the world with traditional Carelian techniques and ingredients. We are happiest when our tummies are full.
We appreciate local ingredients grown just around the corner. Our sauces are hand-crafted by our chefs. We let local flavors shine because we like it that way.
We also do catering from festivals of thousands of people to smaller events and occasions. If you’re planning an event in Ilosaari or anywhere in the region and need a good catering service, contact us!

Kerubi's community is a sum of many good individuals. We have our strengths and our own visions of what is a perfect burger. That's why we wanted to give a voice to our good people and asked them to design their perfect burger to share with you. Every month we will release a new burger, a different, tasty story from one of the people of Kerubi that we want to share with you through the medium we love best: delicious food.
Markku is a chef and shift supervisor here at Kerubi. He spends his free time enjoying blues and roots music on his hacienda in the countryside, occasionally breaking the silent life with the roaring engine of his Enfield motorcycle. The man can truly be called a professional through and through, having wielded the knife and spatula since 1983. For his burger, Markku wanted to use classic and classy flavors.
