After a visit to a private clinic just around the corner, I stumbled upon this charming little café — and what a fortunate discovery it turned out to be. Let’s get straight to the most important part: the coffee. Forget automated coffee machines; here, your cup is prepared by hand, and for a true coffee lover, that makes all the difference. At least, it certainly does for my taste buds. Whether your preference is a classic espresso, a creamy cappuccino, or one of the many other hot beverages crafted from the humble yet magnificent “gold bean,” there is plenty to choose from. And then there are the sweets. Oh, my! For those who prefer their desserts on the less-sweet side, this place is an absolute delight. The cakes are not only beautifully presented but also manage to strike that wonderful balance where the sweetness complements rather than overwhelms the other flavours. I haven’t eaten sugar of any kind for nearly two years, but I decided to make an exception here — purely in the name of research, of course — and try one of their many tempting cakes. I certainly wasn’t disappointed. The staff deserve a mention as well: friendly, attentive, and remarkably quick without making the experience feel rushed. In short, this little café is well worth discovering. If you happen to be in the area, do yourself a favour and give it a try. Your coffee cup — and perhaps your sweet tooth — will thank you.

Cozy, some veriety of dishes, which can be heated up for you. If available, pastry with coffee or tea. Simply delicious if you like to get yourself something for a small buck to eat from this holy place. I would like to point out that the staff were really friendly.

This, let’s call it fine dining, offers quite a veriety of dishes. I had Pelmeni, Vareniki and a Cappuccino. We came on a Sunday at around 7:00PM. The place was almost empty, just one Family. Our waiter, a young gentleman, greeted us friendly and took our order. The food arrived in around 15 min. Delicious but the Vareniki with cottage cheese are sweet! Please be of that) Pelmeni as always a classic dish with mayonnaise. As for the coffee (cappuccino) actually very good and it almost suprised me. The pastry definitely something to try! Overall a solid 7 out of 10. Enjoy.

I’ve opened here a Bank account. The gentleman who did go through the process, made it easy and understandable for me. Please note that Sberbank is not for free! You have to pay a monthly or yearly fee! Also worth mentioning is that Sber has for regular customers and for “prime” customers which service offers a more prestigious one. And this particular office is for Prime only!

I had to get a extremely important document, the process took less than 30min. The staff made it very easy and understandable for me. BUT this only counts IF you’re a russian citizen! If not you will be redirected to some specific centers! If you’re a foreigner please do not visit this location!

This place is extremely crowded during rush hours, but the staff is incredibly friendly and helpful (provided you speak proper Russian, which did count for me). I highly recommend coming at opening times. This center offers state and municipal services, and it’s particularly designed for foreigners.

Small but very cute place, it does offers what every other bistro of this kind offers. So if you like this chain, have a look for yourself!
