My Favorite places to eat in Ogre and surrounding areas!

One of the best places to go and eat whether you are on a budget or not, they have 2 size portions, for most people the medium is more than enough as the large is more than they can handle, Prices are very good for 10 eur 2 people could eat good. I give them a 5 star.

Great pizza place, very homely because of the small space, love how you can see your pizza being made, and the place smells amazing, pizza is on the expensive side but i think it's totally worth it. Definitely recommend visiting People typically spend 15-45 min here

Wonderful place to learn about Latvian castles: Business Hours Thursday – Sunday 10.00 – 18.00 The 12th century Latvian wooden castle was built by Agris Liepiņš based on specifications found in archeological materials. It is not the reconstruction of a specific castle, rather it is a collection of construction examples found in various parts of the Baltics, thus forming a prototype of a Baltic chieftain’s castle – an ideal construction, so to speak. Visitors can see residential areas with small cabins, potter and blacksmith workshops, reconstructed period garments and gain extensive information about life in Latvia in the late iron age. Average person spends at least 45 min here.

This is one of the best museums in the country. If you are keen on finding out about Latvian history and culture dating back to Viking times - this is the place to visit.

A place to visit if you like nature. It's in middle of amazing forest and a beautiful view on top. There is a lake where you can go for a swim if you wish. Wonderful place to have a walk and see around. Fresh air, quiet trails. At winter it possible to rent skis and run around the forest, which I think is extremely cool.
