Well done, they've been keeping the brand for so many years. But, the smell of spilled beer spoils the impression a little.
The main thing is to be with good company.
I have been visiting this restaurant for more than 4 years in a row. What do you like?
Consistently high-quality and delicious food, the availability of a choice in the weekly changing dining menu. Friendly staff.
Convenience and cleanliness. There is a large park nearby where you can walk, there is a modern playground for children.
I didn't see any disadvantages.
I liked almost everything. Great food, pleasant atmosphere, good staff. I know there are different bands performing there every time, but it was on this day that there was a heavier band. I like more dance music. This is rather not a minus, but a matter of taste. I've always enjoyed going there, I highly recommend it.
I am pleasantly surprised.
I was with my wife for the first time. We came on a day off, without reservation, but we found free tables.
From "+":
1. Lots of space
2. Large ceilings
3. Tables for every taste and size of the company
4. There are many locations, both with panoramic windows and more isolated, in nooks.
5. Great beer! (I'm not a professional - but the taste is rich and as a drink for gatherings - great!
6. Generally responsive staff who can advise on the menu and help with tables
From "-":
1. Kitchen for three, both by choice and by saturation of taste
2. The price tag is higher than the quality of the dishes offered (a check for two is easily 70+ rubles. for March 2023: 1 set, 1 coffee, 1 beer, 1 mulled wine, 1 dessert)
3. Crowded. Even if there is space, it is still noisy
A very interesting serving of dishes. Delicious food. Live music. The atmosphere is friendly. The staff is friendly and courteous. The beer is great. What they didn't eat, they packed with them. A cool, lively place!
The pastime was wonderful! The atmosphere is super-conducive to a friendly conversation (we were in the daytime), neat and clean everywhere, the waiter Anton is very attentive-any request was with a smile and quite gallantly fulfilled. The territory is improved and the restaurant looks spectacular! I didn't regret visiting a beautiful place. One more thing in the piggy bank :))
It's a very atmospheric place. The cover band and the dance floor captivated me. We sang songs, had a delicious meal, and had fun with friends at Friends
The food and draniki (not for children) are terrible. The music is often great. There is a playground nearby. There are a lot of very drunk people on Fridays and weekends. According to the mood)
Great place, great atmosphere, live music, pleasant service. Of the minuses, I note that the steaks were very dry, although the portion and the serving are at a height
We really love Friends behind the wheel. We have been to the gastrofest 2 times here, everything is delicious and on the level. We took a set of beer - not bad either. Recommend
I recommend lunches on working days. The optimal combination of price and quality.
As for the main menu, the price is above average, but the taste, portion size, quality and entourage correspond. I like the beer of my own production.
I recommend this place
A huge restaurant with its own brewery.
Beer has not gone all the way, but here it tastes and colors... I liked the novelty, smoked.
Good menu, delicious food, great atmosphere, live music, and what else is needed for the company. I recommend you to visit.
The corporate party was celebrated, and the food was disgusting. Nobody ate the beef steak at all, the pork is overdried. Otherwise, it was fun, the security was great.
A gorgeous place, we celebrated our inner holiday there with the company - everyone liked it. The staff is just space, our every whim was met with understanding and without condemnation :) and we got very drunk there, but we felt comfortable in any condition! After closing, we went to karaoke, and that's a completely different story ;) Karaoke Friends - everything that was there will remain there, hello to Alika ;)
A good selection of beer brewed in our own production. The snacks are hearty at home, the portions are good. If you decide to walk with an abundance of phenomena and dishes, then you will like the place. However, healthy lifestyle and vegans will have a hard time.
It totally sucks. The food is all salty, it is not possible to eat. There is no service- the hot food was confused with the next table, the program has nothing to talk about at all. I don't recommend it to anyone!
Very tasty! The choice of dishes is good. Duck is just- awesome cooking. Good design. Music. And beer, so you can't compare with any institution! True, the prices are good, but... a miser pays twice.
It's a very tasty place, then the dance floor is small for so many seats.
There was a corporate party recently in this place.
The waiters should have been a little friendlier, the table was served by a girl with an expression on her face, as if we had invited ourselves to visit her)
We visit this place more than once. It impresses with its size. There is a lot of space and you can safely call it one of the best establishments in Minsk, which corresponds to its name. Despite the size, it is quite cozy, very stylized and atmospheric. Good cuisine, rich and varied menu, especially game.
We are pleased with the reasonable prices. Always attentive service. The staff is helpful and courteous. They mostly invite good musical groups with an interesting and diverse repertoire (especially "Minsk Sea"). Despite the fact that the restaurant is open until 2, karaoke is a great alternative until the morning.
Very good emotions and impressions of the place. I hope that it will continue to be so))) Good luck!!!
The place is beautiful, atmospheric, a cool scene and the staff is friendly. And now the cons: the most important thing is the music according to the schedule, i.e. 30 minutes are played, 30 minutes of silence, then also 30 minutes. While the music starts, you need to immediately run out onto the dance floor, otherwise you won't have time))) It's crazy. Like sheep on a schedule on the dance floor for 30 minutes, and then at the table) and so probably to the end, tired of waiting for music. Take your break speakers with you. Food: as for me, I need to serve the sauce separately or not pour so much, my stomach hurt then until the morning. The beer is so-so, but this is the smallest minus. And they also brought my wife a "hot dish" barely warm, well, as for me, it leaves much to be desired.
It's a great place.
02/23/24 celebrated the anniversary of a friend.
the hall is full as usual.
the food is delicious, the service is excellent. photos from the photographer are super
Friends are not the same ...
Were at the restaurant on Saturday 07/15/2023
From what is worth noting - the place is already quite hyped, we can say that the staff is relaxed and confident that the people will catch up to them anyway
Specific remarks:
At the entrance, they asked for 10 minutes which table we were going to, couldn't find a reservation, had to call, and somehow ask.
They also have such crap as a music program.
That is, the horse price tag for food does not cover the cover and the screen.
For this, you need to pay an additional 15 rubles per person after 21 pm, keep in mind. And they will fly around anyway, they will not be able to get away.
But you will be able to get a cold dish after an hour of waiting, that's fine
The beer is still good,
The place is overrated.
This is the second bummer in this place.
The first time I was upset by the sad waitress and the tasteless lunch at the Jameson gastrofest, I thought by accident. But no.
As it is, the place is hyped, expectations are high, but no, please give you cold cheeks.
If anything, we'll heat them up in the microwave.
And bretzeli is a separate pain - I'm not saying that they are nothing, but it really is, they are also served from the microwave to make it more painful, 7 rubles a piece, it.
From the good - Borodinsky bread and lard.
According to the check, 900 rubles were issued for a company of 8 people and 1 child.
And you can't say that they were reveling there.
A couple of cocktails (40 rubles !!) And a plate of barbecue.
And all that is called
It used to be a great place. And now it's completely incomprehensible, especially the public.... Drunk boys who want to get a cradle are spinning around
The atmosphere is very relaxing, as well as singing and dancing) Live music. Food...more like beer snacks, but there is wine and you can order quite a decent hot one. The lunch menu is very pleasant. Everything is fresh. The prices are reasonable. The price-quality ratio is balanced) Thanks to the team!)
Well, the staff is not friendly, as for the girls at the entrance, that the waiter. I understand that there are a lot of people, maybe it's hard. But you work in such a field that you could smile and politely respond.
The food was very tasty, there are no questions here
The food is delicious and varied. The burgers are just great!!! You won't regret taking it! A variety of beer of our own production. Lots of snacks. The beautiful interior corresponds to the concept of the institution. Live music daily, the staff is friendly and attentive.
The place is very cool, atmospheric👍 The food is delicious, hearty, corn bread, Live music is super! The service is excellent. The passability is very high, because for many years the institution has maintained a high level of quality👌
Great place! Pleasant atmosphere. The service is at the highest level. Minus one star only for the fact that the music is so loud that not only the words of the soloist are difficult to hear, but also the interlocutor who is at the same table with you, despite the fact that we were far from the stage. Otherwise, it's a very wonderful place.
Of the advantages - delicious food, location.
One of the disadvantages is a very intrusive waiter (girl), did what she thought was necessary, ignoring requests to leave us alone for a while. Music is only for an amateur, study the poster of who is playing and what kind of music. There are long breaks and there is no simple music to dance except for the band's performance
The lunch menu is pretty average, everything is kind of bland, if you take steamed chickens, it's a little dry, there's too much cream in the pasta. Recently, waiting times have increased, plus the waiters absolutely don't give a fuck, they may forget to bring the bill or the same kvass
Good evening. We are very upset about visiting this institution. Last year, everything was on the level-the work of the waiters, the kitchen, the fire program.
This year, the same institution was chosen.
I didn't like them terribly.
It started with the fact that I was looking for waiters to serve us wine glasses and cognac glasses (everything was ordered in advance), the waiters would not bring a plate, then they would forget something else.
After the 2nd issue of the coat (in 5 hours)- the number was just thrown to me..
The kitchen was also upset this year. I don't want to write a lot of text-It's not tasty.
The program was great that year! I advised all my friends.
This year they promised based on "Home Alone" -they didn't notice the bundles.
The contests are the same as last year, with the same musical accompaniment. Sorry, I'm not interested..
nevertheless, in an institution of this level, you want to have a good rest and eat delicious food.
The food is delicious, the beer is wonderful, the staff deserves a special thank you, the most pleasant young people, but the cover band that played on 13.03 is so-so, I don't have anything against the soundtrack, but at least the microphone would be held near the mouth, and the musicians would have completed acting courses to make an active game vision.
We had a rest with 18 people, at 23:00 we wanted to go to karaoke, karaoke entrance is 30₽ we are 18 people = 540₽
Then the situation is as follows, we have a table with 8 bottles of alcohol and food on top, we ask to transfer our food and drinks to karaoke, we were refused, we agreed not to take food but only alcohol, food for 18 people is ready to order karaoke, although I do not understand why there is one kitchen, one restaurant and so to move to karaoke, you need to buy everything there again! This is nonsense, of course, instead of 18 people, 3 went to karaoke, the institution lost about 3000-6000 (1000$-2000$)
