For several years, when we come to Minsk, we invariably have breakfast at the Leung bakery and regretfully observe how the level of service decreases.
But first I'll tell you about the advantages, based on which we continue to walk:first of all, Basque cheesecake, it is absolutely amazing, just like in Spain - tender, creamy and of incredible consistency. Coffee is not bad. Really similar to the original classic croissants.
Minuses:one huge disadvantage is the service. Not once in several dozen visits did any of the staff smile at us. Although, I'm lying, in December of the 23rd year there were wonderful young ladies who gave hope that they started working with the staff - friendly and ready to help. Mostly tortured, indifferent girls and boys who mechanically do the work.
On this visit to Minsk, we were completely disappointed - on May 9, we chose avocado salsa with salmon for breakfast. The salmon was really not bad. But the rest is quiet horror. The egg jam is icy, the vegetable salad is sour, the avocado in it is hard, the salsa is salty. On May 10, we decided to return to the proven cheesecake and croissant. The cheesecake, as always, is on top, and the croissant is yesterday's! Yesterday's hard croissant in the bakery, where the workshop is behind the glass! Later, they found a 15% discount in the receipt, i.e. they did not warn us and simply sold yesterday's products.
Unjustifiably high rating. Croissants and other dishes are no different from the establishments on the street.
The toilet was clogged and they told me to go to other places.
When I asked for water, the waiter hit the bottle on the table so hard that I was afraid the table would break. The rest is fine, the coffee is delicious
A very cozy cafe, nice to sit in a romantic atmosphere..There are always fresh flowers on the table..delicious pastries and pleasant drinks. Clean, atmospheric, cozy, and service at a decent level 💪💪

The bakery is located in the Rakovsky suburb. A cozy room with two halls. You can take a takeaway order or eat on the spot. Here you can try not only pastries, but also salads, soups, and sandwiches. There are fresh flowers on the tables. Polite staff. I recommend.
I love this bakery, I used to come here quite often. The atmosphere is pleasant, but it is quite difficult to find an empty seat. On weekdays, there are a lot of people with laptops, everyone is sitting working, and there will be nowhere to drink tea with a bun :)
The pastries are very tasty, but my love is cheesecake.
I haven't been coming in often lately, unfortunately, prices have become quite expensive :(
It's a very beautiful place. Very fast service, and courteous staff. Long queues indicate that it is very tasty and cozy here. I took coffee and croissants, I haven't tasted more delicious croissants in Minsk yet
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 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.
A very nice and cozy place) You can have a delicious breakfast in a pleasant shade! We wanted to repeat it the next day, but we came later and there were already too many people) We will come again, but get up earlier))
everything was fine, the best place for breakfast that we found and came here every day. The staff is very friendly, they work very well and cook very tasty.
A very pleasant place. Of course, it would not surprise you in St. Petersburg, but it is very good for Minsk. The kraffins are very tasty, the Basque cheesecake is what it should be, the most delicate. The impression of the place remained pleasant.
A small minus among all the advantages of the establishment was the curdled milk in aislatt, there is something for the barista to work on.
P.S. The rolls are so delicious that all the pigeons of Minsk flock to the tables on the streets and barbarously try to snatch any piece, so it's better to sit inside right away.
Among the advantages: cozy and very tasty pastries.
Cons : prices. 300ml of the most ordinary black tea for 6p. And tea in this institution is stupidly a container with water, into which a tea bag is thrown. The cost of such tea is 30 kopecks. They sell for 6p.
That is, if you come to take tea with pastries, then you will pay more for tea than for pastries. It's completely absurd, as far as I'm concerned...
A super place! During the week we had breakfast in this very cozy and sincere cafe. I highly recommend visiting at any time of the day. Amazing pastries and atmosphere.
A very nice place in the city center, but in a quiet corner. Decent coffee of various types, and there is just a huge amount of baking of all kinds. They bake here. There is also other food, you can have breakfast and lunch. The place is popular, queues gather at any time, but the staff works extremely fast, so everyone is happy
As soon as this bakery opened, we became regulars :)
Cozy, delicious smells of croissants and crfe :)
There are always small bouquets on the tables:)
Coffee, cocoa (not sweet, as I like :)),hot chocolate, teas...Baking is always decent!Kishi with all sorts of fillings.Therefore, there are always enough fans to sit here.I recommend it!Especially the Baku cheesecake-10+++++ !!!!!
We were in Minsk on the weekend, came to Flax almost every day) I highly recommend an omelet with cream pesto and pickled tomatoes, I have never tasted such a delicious omelet! Coffee and pastries are also delicious, Basque cheesecake is very delicate. Pleasant atmosphere, the place is popular, it is always crowded (even at 9 am on Saturday).
Thanks a lot to the staff! This place brightened up our cloudy weekend in Minsk!
The most delicious San Sebastian cheesecake that I ate even in Moscow. His tenderness is just off the scale. Quiche with mushrooms is delicious and juicy. We need to work on the fish and broccoli cake- it's a little dry. The pesto omelet is delicious, baked, no residual proteins. I highly recommend this place if you want to start your day delicious. During the three days of our stay in Minsk, we had breakfast here. On the last day, we took food with us on the road - we were not disappointed. Bread with cranberries is a dump of the head. I ate half a loaf at a time, I couldn't stop. Thanks to the staff for making our days tastier. Do not lower the level!
I liked the pate and black bread with cranberries (cranberries are natural, they taste sweet). We took coffee and quiche with salad. Satisfying. Delicious. There are many places for two in the cafe. There is a second hall, there is a table for 10 people. Atmospheric. Cafe in the area of old buildings. Nicely.
A wonderful, atmospheric place, bread, croissants and more, the assortment will pleasantly please everyone with its variety. I recommend it!

One of my favorite coffee shops in Minsk. It's always crowded, but you can find a table. It's nice that besides baking there is also a normal meal. Fast service.
A good bakery, a croissant with raspberries should be tried by everyone. There are many tables inside, it is warm, cozy, and clean. Polite people work. I can't say anything about coffee, we haven't tried it here. But everything else is fine :)
A great place, delicious breakfasts, tastier than in restaurants where you need to book a table for breakfast in advance. The omelet is good, the soup tureen is good too. You can also drink without caffeine, the girls ask great questions about preferences, with knowledge of the matter. There are de nata pastels, and they are good, but I've tried a lot of them. I am 100% satisfied.
It's very noisy, a lot of people. It is very uncomfortable to sit at a table (on a chair) near the cash register. People and staff are constantly walking by and kicking the chair leg. Expensive.
Super! The best that was in the Soviet confectionery world was embodied in the store of Flax, from the atmosphere and atmosphere, to those most beloved delicacies, to the level of which any Mars and snickers will never match.
It is a very pleasant cafe, I want to return to it. It is spacious, there are many places, but also popular) A large selection of pastries, there are breakfasts, a dog friendly cafe. The prices are not cheap.
A cozy coffee shop in the historical district of Minsk. Good coffee, delicious breakfasts and sweet pastries. There are not many seats inside, but in the warmer months there are excellent tables outside with a wonderful view!
If you love flour as much as I do, then you will definitely like this place)) gorgeous pastries, bread, as from childhood and my favorite roast beef sandwich, here are 3 facts that do not allow me to pass by this place calmly)
Delicious coffee and pastries. The pastries are all fresh, cooked on site. I didn't really like the cheesecakes (they didn't feel cooked to the end... for a serving of 3 pcs - one was raw unfortunately, the cream for the cheesecakes is very original / the combination is unusual)
I liked absolutely everything : service , interior, a large number of seats! Insanely fresh and delicious pastries, and lavender raf tasted like lavender was really added there. The taste is rich and delicate. I recommend this place to all my friends and will definitely return there again. Price =quality!
