One of the best places in Minsk if you are looking for some delicious bakery/coffee and soft atmosphere to relax. Staff are really positive and kind. The prices are reasonable, generally average for this city. Can recommend this place to visit 👍
To say that I fell in love with this coffee shop is to say nothing!
The place is soulful, atmospheric, with great pastries, delicious breakfasts and delicate and fragrant coffee!
The staff is very polite and friendly! Clean, cozy, just magical!
I really, really advise everyone who visits Minsk to go to this place to get aesthetic, moral and gastronomic pleasure!.
Thanks to the creator and all the participants (employees) of this fabulous place!
You are all great fellows!!!
I recommend it!!!
A nice cozy cafe with a small number of seats. The menu is not very diverse, several types of salads of approximately the same price category, a few hot dishes, one type of omelet, but a wide selection of pastries. The price category is above average. On a day off, it is already difficult to find a place in the afternoon. The wardrobe is immediately at the entrance, and the hall is a little further away, which is not very convenient, because you are responsible for the safety of things yourself. The service is relatively fast, in order to make an additional order, you need to go to the counter, since there are practically no waiters in the hall.
One of my favorite cafes. Wonderful, helpful staff. I take bread on a regular basis, I really like sourdough bread from this particular bakery. We tried everything from baking - super. There are some favorites - a twist with poppy seeds, a twist with cinnamon, a croissant with chocolate, a classic croissant, a piece with cherries (I forgot the name). And there's great cocoa here.
A great coffee shop with wonderful and delicious pastries! Yes, initially you choose, order and pay, then the order is brought to you. The dishes are beautiful and delicious, it is very important to me, so special thanks and thanks for this. A very delicious lemon mint cupcake, thank you for having small and big options, and your San Sebastian cheesecake is just a bomb and love from the first to the last piece! And it is also very nice that there is a choice of Brazil and Ethiopia coffee, fine and again.
It's great that it's already packed and you can take various sweets with you to yourself, colleagues or anyone you want to make a delicious compo!
Who needs less pathos, but definitely here for the taste!
I wish you grateful and loyal customers and longevity!
It is not a budget place, it is very popular, it is necessary to book a table. The range is mainly represented by pastries. I was very impressed by the large, beautiful loaves, and maybe I will buy them sometime.
I took brownies and Lime Mint cupcake for dessert. Brownie is dense, rich chocolate, slightly salty.
Introverts are better off taking products with them: there are a lot of visitors on weekends, the tables are close to each other, so it's easy to hear what others are talking about
The best omelet I've ever eaten. Nutritious and satisfying. Great coffee,
(La Marzocco coffee machine if anyone understands)
Baking is beyond praise. From the exclusive, if you want to please your loved ones on Easter holidays, Panettoni is baked according to the Italian recipe and I will say even better than in Italy). And there is a Christmas tunnel - it is also a local masterpiece.
The service is fast, the room is always full.
Delicious pastries! It was nice to know that there are still breakfasts. Everything was done quickly and tasty.
A large selection of bread. Lots of drinks. A great location.
Of course, my favorite time is before the New Year, because there is still a beautiful Christmas tree. But it's worth visiting at any time
Delicious fresh pastries of our own production. Very good coffee, beans and roasting are also very good. They offer a choice of grains from Brazil and Ethiopia. Good atmosphere, service, there is a summer courtyard with tables.
Great bakery. We were on Sunday, at 10 a.m. there was already a rush and a lot of visitors. We took cappuccino, cherry kraffin and shakshuka. Everything was very tasty. The waiting time is about 15 minutes. The only drawback is a very nervous and tired staff. Hence, probably, the inhospitality. We need more waiters. Because the same girl was delivering orders to everyone and clearing the table, the second was taking orders, the third was making coffee. That's all. Well, the prices, as for me, are still too high.
It's a beautiful place. Among the advantages are the beauty and convenience of the establishment, the menu for the whole day and incredibly delicious pastries, which are always fresh. Of the disadvantages, the price of the products is quite high (it's worth it!!!). In addition, due to the popularity of the institution, there is a rule against working at a computer in the institution. To sum up, I want to say that everyone should go there at least once and treat themselves to sweets, perhaps you will become, however, like me, frequent visitors to this bakery)
Good bakery, excellent pastries, very interesting combinations. However, it is too expensive and there is not enough space inside (it is very uncomfortable if you come with a company or a couple, as the tables are too close to each other, and you almost always need to wait for a table), so I cannot put more than 4.
A piece of cheesecake and coffee will cost you 23 rubles, this is information for those who have not been here yet.
The beautiful place is cozy, polite unobtrusive workers, good prices, delicious pates, cozy, there was a cool Christmas tree in winter, a very popular place among the townspeople, so the place is not so easy to find. However, of the minuses, baking is all too strong with margarine, fatty, for whom it is impossible to take this into account. A beautiful worthy place in the beloved Rakovsky Suburb.
The nicest coffee shop, good breakfasts, delicious pastries, there is some alcohol (for evening gatherings). How many days have we been in Minsk- we had breakfast there, there are always a lot of people, it speaks for itself
The interior is very nice, the atmosphere is pleasant. You can take pastries or hot dishes, a varied menu.
The cheesecake is just incredible! Delicious, light, moderately sweet. Amazing! I highly recommend it!
I'll call this coffee shop warm! There is a friendly and professional staff, delicious and fresh pastries, decent coffee, a wonderful place! Cleanliness and comfort. The soul is felt!
A nice and cozy place, the staff is kind and polite, the food is fresh and delicious, as well as aesthetically beautiful.
The loading of the hall is almost complete in the morning and it is clear why)
The institution is good and worth every penny spent in it
The place is generally pleasant, the food is delicious
however, I had to do a couple of things on my laptop during the working day. I noticed a warning about this only at the checkout (that they ask you not to sit with laptops), but where to go, the order has been paid for
while I was waiting for food, I turned on the computer
, and almost immediately a girl swooped in, saying that I couldn't use laptops, although I didn't sit there for hours, but I wanted to do work while I was waiting for food anyway
"you can't use it" and "please don't use it" are different things, and you should write about it at the entrance, not modestly at the checkout.
The waitress kept trying to pick up the unfinished food.
The worst part was when she took the empty plate from under her nose, threw a dirty napkin at it, and just took out the napkin and returned the bowl to its place. firstly, what kind of service is it to take away food, secondly, to give it out after a dirty napkin, and thirdly, no apologies, as if it were necessary
Maybe we went in on a bad day, but it's fucked up, not the atmosphere and service.
Thanks for the ruined breakfast and morning :(
Always fresh pastries and a stable taste of coffee. The place is popular, hence the restriction on visits with laptops. Reasonable prices for good service, which the team has been holding for so many years, I will be happy to return)
The pastries are quite tasty, the coffee is for an amateur. But the service is lame. They don't always say hello. There was also a case when, at about 9 a.m., I went to the checkout to quickly take out pastries, but the staff seemed to be around the checkout, but in fact no one greeted me and did not accept the order, waited a few minutes for the order to be accepted (although there was no one else in the queue), in the end I had to leave with nothing with what.
UPD a few months later: they slip the wrong pastries more than once, 3 times in the last couple of weeks, the other day they tried to prove that I said the wrong number of buns. I often notice that the staff communicates with each other in a toxic way. (Please do this not in front of customers).
Greetings to tourists and locals of the city of Minsk as well as other people who came to this city
Be sure to visit this place for several reasons:
1. You will not expect your order until the end of time, it will be delivered to you very very quickly
2. You will not be disappointed in the taste of food and drinks as they are wonderful here
3. You will definitely smile at the checkout and at the table and will give you a good mood for the whole day
This institution deserves 5 stars out of 5, according to all indicators, I warmly recommend it
A nice pleasant place for breakfast or to relax with a cup of coffee in the historical center of the city. Delicious pastries, breakfasts, good coffee. There are quite a lot of tables, two halls. Excellent service, there are even water bowls to water the dogs :)
A good coffee shop with a good assortment. I ordered an almond croissant with mint tea — everything is fine, but I would like to downplay the sweetness in the croissant a little.
Fresh and varied pastries, my eyes run away - I want everything at once, just a magical raf! Polite staff, fast service, there are always a lot of people, but there are enough tables for everyone. A great place for meetings and just a pleasant time to spend, in summer having breakfast with drinks on the street is a special pleasure.
We saw the rating of popular places in Minsk, and decided to go to the Flax. The place is really popular with city residents and tourists. It's very atmospheric. Delicious pastries. It's crowded during the day, be careful. It can be difficult to find an empty table. But if you wait a little bit, then you will be lucky. The staff works quickly, especially the guys who bring the order. Bravo! The only thing is coffee, we still need to work on it. Perhaps there is not a private roaster in the institution, but a mosmarket of coffee on stream
High quality, very tasty! My wife appreciated Sangria, but the main top is baking! It's good that they banned the use of laptops, free places immediately appeared. It's not a cheap place.
I really like their tea, it's delicious! I love this place, although the prices here are not very affordable, the staff is polite, the food is delicious, but yes, it's expensive. A funny solution with a toilet mirror :D
The cafe is cozy, but it wasn't like that today.
You can't use a laptop in it, it says near the cash register, but it says "please", please and you can't do these are different things and it should be indicated at the entrance and on the website!
The waitress came up to us and said no, and then she constantly monitored our laptop lying on the table.
They tried to take the half-eaten food away from us in our presence and without asking, the waitress took the half-eaten porridge and threw a napkin at it. When asked to return the porridge, she took out a napkin and returned the porridge (no apologies followed.
I tried to pick up the half-finished coffee and the half-eaten brownie... The mood was ruined.
A wonderful selection of fresh baked goods, confectionery, pies. As an amateur, I really liked the croissants. However, there is no dispute about tastes - I am sure everyone will be able to choose something to their taste. They couldn't leave without taking something delicious. The photo is attached. The only thing I would like to wish the friendly and serious staff is smiles. Still, an appetizing croissant and excellent coffee go better with a smile. Special thanks to the barista. Coffee in various variations is excellent. Good luck.
An atmospheric place, a beautiful interior. Good service and very tasty pastries.
But the drinks are not so good. As a lover of cold coffee, I did not find any positions for myself in the menu at all. I asked if it was possible to add ice to my bumble, maybe they don't have ice in principle. They refused me, but from somewhere they offered me a tonic that was not on the menu
A wonderful place for breakfast. During our short trip for 4 days, we had breakfast here every day. There are always tables, large portions, and a wonderful hall. I definitely recommend it.
It's a great place, everything is delicious, the waiters are very efficient and friendly. The prices are normal for the quality and location of the place. So far, parking is a problem, hopefully temporarily. It's a great place to have a snack for a walk.
It's a good place!
Prices +/- as in the whole city.
There are a lot of people (the tables are very close to each other), so if you like intimacy, not in this institution.
The staff is polite, the pastries and drinks are good.
Very tasty coffee (probably the best in the city), pleasant breakfasts (without exceptions), a wonderful extract. But the attitude of the staff is frustrating: unsmiling and makes inappropriate remarks. I was aware that the institution had changed its concept and forbade working in a coffee shop, but this rule reaches the point of absurdity and the cafe turns into a GULAG. After ordering a large breakfast for two, pastries and two coffees, I took my laptop out on my lap for 2 minutes to find a train ticket. One of the waitresses on May 12 at 12:00 made a remark to me that I could not get my equipment. I told her that I was not working, but looking for a ticket, to which I was given the answer that it was also impossible. Conduct a training session with your employees and teach them to be friendly and not to walk around with sour faces. I don't want such an institution to spoil because of fame. P.S. out of five visits to Flax, cashiers confused the order twice: then two identical coffees appeared, then pastries were forgotten.
Positive: beautiful and instagrammable, nice and large summer porch, lots of baking
Cons: pigeons fly on the veranda, sit on tables. The baristas and, in principle, all the girls from the staff have faces with subtitles, very, very unfriendly. The tip of the iceberg is served sour sparkling wine, which I do not even know how to store it can be brought to the state of spoiled alcohol! and two-day croissants, which can be used to hammer nails)
100% anti-recommendation in Minsk
The pastries are divine, and so are the breakfasts.
In the morning you can stand in line, but it's worth it👌
Located in a beautiful courtyard near the center, there is a summer garden
A very cozy place with a good selection of breakfasts. Everything is very tasty and fresh. A pleasant and proper start to the day. Recommended to visit
Amazing pastries!!! It's impossible to resist! We came to the city for three days, two of which had breakfast here. Very tasty and decent. Fast service, with a fairly large number of people. The salmon of the ambassador's own is very tasty, moderately salty!
I recommend you to visit!!!
The best bakery in town! The most delicious pastries, teas and desserts. We are always satisfied with the service, the quality of the products and the simple atmosphere in the establishment. Be sure to visit, you won't regret it! There are almost always queues, and that says a lot :)
The place is nice, the drinks and food are delicious, BUT!
Laptops are not allowed, and I only found out about it when the waiter told me after the order was paid (the small signs on the tables are very uninformative). I had to do everything I needed via the phone, and it took about 40 minutes along with the meal.
Add a sign on the front door, I think there will be fewer people.
A pleasant place, in a not very crowded place, which gives an atmosphere of freedom. Friendly staff, good cuisine.
At the moment, only positive emotions.
More new establishments are opening nearby, which will give the institution a new impetus for development and expansion.
A pleasant place, sockets, Wi-Fi, good coffee and impeccable pastries. Lots of seats, one of my favorite places!
Updating the review: it was really my favorite place, laptops were banned and I haven't set foot there since.
