Lore Bistroo is a Michelin Bib Gourmand bistro at Peetri 12 in the Noblessner harbour district of Põhja-Tallinn, Tallinn, Estonia. Noblessner is a former submarine-yard complex that has been redeveloped into restaurants, apartments and a marina, and Lore occupies a converted building there. The Bib Gourmand recognises good-quality cooking at a moderate price, and the bistro is among the better-known dining addresses in the harbour area north of the Old Town. The cuisine is described as modern and travel-inspired.

Lore Bistroo is a Michelin Bib Gourmand bistro at Peetri 12 in the Noblessner harbour district of Põhja-Tallinn, Tallinn, Estonia. Noblessner is a former submarine-yard complex that has been redeveloped into restaurants, apartments and a marina, and Lore occupies a converted building there. The Bib Gourmand recognises good-quality cooking at a moderate price, and the bistro is among the better-known dining addresses in the harbour area north of the Old Town.

The cuisine is described as modern and travel-inspired. The dishes draw on the owner's travels, which means the menu mixes influences from different places rather than sticking to one national style. The listing names travel-inspired seasonal dishes as its signature rather than a single emblematic plate, so the menu changes with the season and with the kitchen's ideas. Visitors should check the current menu, since individual dishes cannot be guaranteed.

The dining room reflects the industrial heritage of the building, with a contemporary feel and a stylish but relaxed mood. The noise level is moderate to lively when full, and the atmosphere suits dinners with friends or partners. There is no strict dress code, though smart-casual clothing is typical. The harbour setting adds to the experience, particularly on summer evenings when the Noblessner waterfront is busy with walkers and diners.

The venue sits in the upper ($$$) price bracket. Beverages include wine and other drinks, though a detailed programme is not confirmed.

Opening days vary by season, so checking before visiting is necessary. Reservations are strongly recommended, and booking well ahead is wise for weekends and the summer. No verified website or phone is held, so reservations may need to go through online listings. The same Peetri 12 building houses UMA, another Bib Gourmand restaurant with a separate kitchen, so the pair makes the address a useful destination for food-focused visitors. Noblessner is reached by tram, taxi or a walk along the seafront from the Old Town.
