We visited this cafe recently, and, to be honest, the impressions remained so-so. The location is convenient, the entrance is convenient, and the products seem to be original, but this is the only thing that pleases.
First, the staff... It feels like you're not a guest, but you should deserve their attention. They are unfriendly, inconsiderate, and sometimes even careless. It's like they're doing me a favor by serving me at all. This immediately spoils the whole impression.
Secondly, the quality of desserts has noticeably deteriorated. The taste is still normal, but the appearance... It feels like they're doing it in a hurry. Gone is the neatness and love that used to be felt in every piece.
And the worst thing is cleanliness. Crumbs, stains, splashes, leftovers. Right in front of us, a worker in dirty clothes approached the equipment while preparing a cocktail. It's just trash. Maybe this is a problem with a specific location, but the owners should definitely pay attention.
By the way, I'd rather order something like a Scandinavian salmon cake - at least there's a lot of filling and the look would be decent. But here, alas, I don't want to go back yet.

I love this place for its pastries and teas. Everything is delicious, It's not like that at other gas stations like this!
However, it is noticeable if another cook was preparing the pastries... they'll regret the nuts, then the berries, then they'll cheat with the dough.
The staff depends on the shift! There are those who are attentive and responsible, but there are also those who are weird. Alas!
Please save the best!

Terrible service! On Sunday afternoon, we wanted to stop by for coffee and something to eat on the way. There weren't many people, and there were 3 girls bustling around the counter. We naively decided that everything would be fast. As a result, after waiting for 30 minutes, we realized that they were giving orders that were after us, and there was no smell of ours! My husband came over to clarify where our order was, and we were asked to wait another 10 minutes. Moreover, we were surprised that not a single dish had been given to us yet. Like, "why don't you wait?" No!!! 30 minutes of waiting for fast food is an overdofig!!! And it looks like we had the same situation in front of us. There was a very unhappy young man with half of the order, we did not immediately understand why he was unhappy. You don't have the lowest prices, how much can you save on staff! This is trash!!

Advantages for a convenient location and entrance. For relatively original products.
However, the cons kill everything.
Firstly, the staff has a false feeling that they are the masters of the process, not the customers. Therefore, when visiting a cafe, you will not leave the feeling that you must earn the privilege of being well served. The staff is unfriendly, inattentive and even careless.
Secondly, the quality of desserts has dropped significantly. The taste is still the one you're going for, but the look has definitely gotten worse. There is an impression that they are doing it in a hurry. The perfectly adjusted proportions of the ingredients are gone, when the taste of each piece is the same.
Thirdly, (and this is the most important and terrible thing!) - cleanliness and well-groomed both indoors and in places where food is placed, as at a station snack bar. Crumbs, leftovers from old food, some splashes and so on. Right during the preparation of the cocktail, a worker in dirty overalls approached the equipment. The photo shows what is literally at the cash register.
Perhaps these are the disadvantages of a specific location and the owners should pay attention to this particular point.

I don't eat at gas stations. But I often came here for coffee - the barista cooks decently, with a stable foam, and it doesn't matter whether you take it with you or on the spot - it's always delicious.
And once I ordered a salad. And since then, if I'm hungry and on my way, I stop by here. The cuisine has been consistently delicious for several years. Porridge, salads, omelette, etc. Everything was always served fresh.
Cakes are one of the favorites in the city. The tastes are original, the prices are very reasonable. Periodically update the menu. I've tried almost everything. Special thanks to the technologists and confectioners. The packaging is decent, it happens that I often take assorted pieces to visit.
But there are two fattest disadvantages. When will the sofas finally be changed??!! Torn, crumpled ((( It's disgusting to sit on them, but it's uncomfortable on wooden chairs.
The same untidy seats on the flight. Ugh!
And the toilet leaves much to be desired.
I'm shooting a star for this.

Favorite cafe , where you can stop even without a reason , you will always want to eat or drink something , delicious tea with ginger, coffee of all kinds and sweets mmmmmm pastries , cakes , cookies. It's very tasty. Stylish interior, always on sale cute toys, Bukowski cubs. In summer, there is also a terrace overlooking the Arena Minsk, where you can relax while sipping a fruit smoothie, which they also mix deliciously.

There are 4 girls behind the bar, everyone is minding their own business and no one can come to the cashier to take an order. They don't respond to requests in any way and look at you like a moron. Camon, girls, who are you?!

The food is great, the service is terrible. It felt like they were doing us a favor by serving us. After asking if it was possible to change the order and take it out instead of eating on the spot, the girl rolled her eyes and silently left somewhere. I could only wonder if I had been gently sent or if they had gone to fulfill my request. It was the same when I asked for the appliances. The dish took a long time to prepare, but it was worth it

We drove specially after reading the site and because we were open before everyone else. It's cute, but unfortunately the dishes are radically different from those presented on the site. The quality is also a C-grade.
I'm talking about scrambled eggs with sausage and bacon.
I wanted to have a delicious breakfast, but it didn't work out.
I'm upset.

A convenient location for cyclists. Cappuccino is delicious. I asked to make it warmer, as a result - 47 degrees. We need at least 60. You won't get warm in the cold autumn.

the place is iconic for motorcyclists) there are a lot of guys with cool devices, a lot of cyclists (there is a bicycle repair shop nearby).
salad itself is on sale has a lot of goodies for coffee/tea, pizza, hot.
the prices are above average, the quality is high. the staff is friendly. the place is very passable, there are always people. The waiting time is from 20 minutes for food, drinks are faster.
the veranda is very atmospheric, it's nice to sit and watch the traffic along the avenue)

Of the advantages, only delicious desserts. The work of the staff leaves much to be desired, no politeness, cocktails are prepared without gloves. I used to often take quesadillas, but lately they have deteriorated very much, I only buy desserts.

On the plus side, there are a lot of gas pumps, and a poorly
functioning toilet
Among the disadvantages are the unfriendly staff, this applies to all gas stations, worn-out equipment, overprice in the so-called store, where you can grab food in half with car chemicals

It's not a bad place, but I take off one star for the fact that one day they made sea buckthorn tea instead of ginger tea. And even though I was outraged, I was not offered to redo it. You should be more attentive to regular customers. The cakes are delicious, that's for sure.

I don't understand why the staff counts you at the checkout and immediately goes to make you sea buckthorn tea (or any other with additives) with their bare hands (without gloves!) throws an orange and everything else in there… You just held money with a billion bacteria on it! Unsanitary conditions! I'm afraid to imagine what's going on in your kitchen… I took different desserts, but the tubes with condensed milk are the best, for this I will throw 1 star.

The first time I meet, it seems like a normal-looking place. they asked for a cake with them - a piece of cake costs 5.7 rubles, and a package with them costs 1.6 rubles (more than 20% of the cost).
If you don't take the package with you, they give it in the form as in the photo, you carry it as if in your hands and the cake is smeared on the package.
It is clear that it is not at all about the price of the package, but about the attitude to its customers and the banal good tone to give your product with you

Today I went to salad drive for the first time. I liked the wide range of food. Lots of cakes, salads, cocktails.. However, I faced the worst service in my life. The girl at the cash register (with black hair) is completely indifferent to her work. When I got home, I found that one cake was missing, which I paid for, and the cassadilla turned out to be with mushrooms, and not with avocado and chicken, as I ordered. Also, while there was a queue at the checkout, this girl just left the checkout and started talking, apparently, with her friends who entered the store. I returned to the checkout only after the remark of the man in the queue. Moreover, this girl was in no hurry to say that my cassadilla was ready. When another girl at the checkout asked whose cassadilla it was, the girl serving me said she didn't know and went to a table with her friends. Everything I bought was very tasty, but the quality of service shocked me, and I also lost money on the cost of the cake.

After buying a mango milkshake last year, I stopped visiting. I took the child to the camp - there was a taste of some kind of powder in my mouth. Okay, a year has passed, I took an espresso tonic ..... ice was poured into a half-liter plastic cup to the top and a portion of espresso and tonic was put there. As a result, I drank a watery drink without tasting either espresso or tonic...

I made an elementary request.
Maybe I should get a clean coffee cup? no
Is it possible to buy a clean coffee cup? no
The staff is not polite.
There is no customer orientation.
If it is so difficult to sell an empty glass, sell coffee, but do not cook it and give a clean glass.

Nice diner at the gas station. The menu includes fast food, coffee, desserts + a shop in the same hall. There is a place to sit both outside and inside. The place is passable, because in good weather and on weekends you can wait a long time for an order, there may be problems to sit down.

We are greeted by a closed institution on a hot day off) Okay, Salad, I've been a fan of yours for many years since the first days of your discovery, but now you've finally sunk to the bottom. The service has been long, the coffee is already terrible, the service (politeness) is at the level of the market in zhdany (although you know it more politely there). Well, the fact that you don't work on a hot day off is completely overkill. One star for the current service, the second as a sign of respect for past achievements.

I bought a lemon cake a week ago. 4 hours after I ate, the most terrible thing began... Naturally, this is poisoning.
The cafe used to be great, but now it's scary to take something there.
Come on, and a cake, well, it doesn't happen to anyone.. Summer, maybe their refrigerator worked badly or something..
But today we stopped by to buy tea with ginger and at our own risk took a potato cake with red sprinkles (the saleswoman praised, decided to trust.. And suddenly you're really lucky and everything will work out, and the taste is like in childhood).
We're driving in the car, so I'm eating a cake and I feel like some kind of thing pierced my gum. Well, in general it turned out to be a wire..
In general, I have to take tests tomorrow, but I won't set foot in this cafe anymore.
