This place is amazing! You get everything you could ask for! Great drinks, nice food, and solid music set the perfect vibe. And to top it off, the barladies are not only skilled but also incredibly attractive...
It's just something with something!!!!
I have rested here several times and every time everything was at the highest level
The food is great
Tinctures are just a cannon (Iris and Baylis just tear, and apple is very invigorating, thanks to the sourness)
The staff is very polite and attentive
Andrey the bartender is a human being. In 30 minutes, remember who drinks what, never make a mistake and offer to repeat it in time... This is very strong. A level 80 magician, no other way 👍
I would like to single out bartender Polina separately from the staff. A person who can masterfully recommend something or even better do it. In addition, the most tactful person (the contingent among visitors is different, copes masterfully). A bonus for a person!
The music in the institution is also very pleasant, it does not bother (because it is not the kind that plays from every iron)
In general, an institution that I have been looking for for a very long time and finally found
I'll be back often, so stock up on tinctures 😅
The Matches Bar is a great place for a pleasant evening with friends or colleagues. The waiters are always friendly and prompt. The cuisine deserves praise, especially the delicious hot dogs. In addition, the bar pleases with a variety of promotions. 1+1 is especially attracted to tinctures on Wednesdays and Thursdays. In general, "Matches" is a place where you want to return!
We went to this place. We were as satisfied as possible . Very tasty tinctures and cuisine, pleasant atmosphere.Special thanks for the service to the waiter Alexandra, everything was at the highest level. They did not forget about us, as in many other establishments, and everything was done quickly and efficiently. The overall score is 10 out of 10 . I would like to return to such an institution with such a kitchen and staff. Which we will do. Thanks!
An amazing place, very tasty tinctures, I advise everyone to try, the cuisine is also excellent, very polite staff, in particular the waitress Alexandra, the service is at the highest level, there were only positive emotions, we will definitely return!
Good time of day.
I would like to thank Alexander the bartender separately for the good interaction at the bar.
Overall, a pleasant range of price/quality. Pleasant tinctures and this creates its own style and its own space in the establishment.
If you try cocktails, you can find your own and understand what you like and what you don't like. I really love Daiquiris, but unfortunately the taste of Belarusian rum is completely different from other classics. But there are more decent cocktails based on alcohol from this country.
I want to mention one caveat!!! I will ask the management to focus on this - it can raise the level of the institution and the attitude towards it. Today I came across a situation where a guy showed attention to girls (it seems like this is a natural manifestation in a bar) and everything seemed to be fine, but the girls were clearly uncomfortable with this. Unfortunately, not everyone knows how to emphasize this. Please add some kind of outside help function for the girls in such situations, as I want everyone's evening to be warm and cozy)
Respectfully, Dante.
There used to be a really good place with good prices and an interesting concept, it beckoned with some kind of coziness and friendliness. Now, unfortunately, the level of employees is below average, the atmosphere is not the same at all, the quality of service has dropped significantly. I don't know who is recruiting and working with the staff, but this person has lost his grip. I don't know if we'll be going back to our early favorite place.
One of my favorite bars. Cool promotions for tinctures, delicious snacks. I celebrated my birthday there. I like this particular bar the most, other bars of this chain are not very conveniently located for me
The Matches bar used to be one of my favorites in Minsk, the first time we were there 3 years ago on Nemiga, we really liked everything, the tinctures were great. Then a year ago, they noticed that they were diluted, and the taste changed, as if you were drinking sweet water. We stopped walking on Nemiga, then we went to Chelyuskintsev Park, which was also a disappointment. We were here a month ago, the taste was the same as before, we were not diluted. We decided to celebrate the New Year on December 27. And disappointment, the tinctures are diluted, they taste like sweet water. Complete disappointment. Now we don't plan to visit this bar anymore. And we don't recommend it to others.
We had a rest with friends on 20.09 everything was great!
The waiters are very friendly and will always help with the choice!
The tinctures are top, the Mai Tai cocktail was wonderful!
We will definitely come here more than once😍
It's great that the institution has nice promotions every day.
I tried tinctures with unusual flavors. I recommend salted caramel to everyone, it's something 😋
By the way, it was here that I tried the most delicious hot dog, also for such a nice price. I will be happy to come here again and again
A great place to spend an evening in company. Good cuisine and top tinctures🥂 Excellent atmosphere and pleasant staff🤝🏻
I highly recommend this place!
A special recommendation is tomato tincture 🔝
We had a rest with a guy in the "Matches" establishment, we really liked it!!!
The food is delicious, the drinks are interesting!
The service is excellent, especially I liked the competence and sociability of the bartender Margot!
Thanks! We will return to this institution more than once)
We were at the institution on June 19th. In terms of food and prices, everything is at the highest level. It's very tasty and the atmosphere is cool.
I took off one star, they ordered drinks, they brought cold cider to the young man, and warm beer to me :(
Well, I think okay, sometimes I gave a half-full glass back. We have already ordered 2 ciders again and everything happened again, it was my warm one, And the guy's is ideally cool for such weather.
Well, I understand everything, there are a lot of people even on weekdays, you can't keep track of everything, otherwise everything is fine!
P.S. Please don't heat the beer 🥺
It's not the first time we've visited this place with the girls, and it's always to the point! Very tasty tinctures, the cuisine is at the highest level. The staff is very friendly and the receptionist Polina offered blankets as we were sitting outside, nice!!!
We visited this place for the first time a year ago and we were delighted with the food and the place itself. This year we visited again, but there were no impressions. Yes, delicious tinctures for cool promotions (on Sunday 5+ 5). The food is not so tasty anymore. And the whole institution as a whole is designed for students, with whom this bar was packed. The music is screaming, the interlocutor is not heard, the staff walks around with dissatisfied faces. The toilet is cold, there is no heating at all, some kind of detox... In general, if you just want to have a good time with friends and chat, go somewhere else
We have been walking since the opening, everything was fine before, but not now. Tinctures are diluted so that you just drink smoothies or compotes. It turns out that as the price increases, the alcohol level in the tincture decreases. Cocktails also have a minimum of alcohol and a lot of ice. Customer focus is at zero. When you place an order, there are many positions missing, and when you choose something else, the waiter clicks that she is being delayed. Guys, you have a Friday, a lot of people, make a little more tinctures in stock, you still don't add the alcoholic component. There are also a lot of questions about food with grammars on the menu and at the exit. It turns out that there is no longer any interest in coming here with such an attitude. Thank you.
This is my first review of this bar (on Oktyabrskaya Street) in all 3.5 years of visiting (since opening). Yesterday we came as a company to try a novelty. They upset us right off the bat and said that there was no Oxalic tincture (for a week or two!). We had 5 seats abandoned, but in the end we gathered six people. They took an empty chair, and after a couple of minutes they told us to release it and return it. Customer focus is 0! I understand that we booked incorrectly, but it was possible to get into the situation and find this chair for us, so now a person should not drink and eat standing up? Tinctures have turned into milkshakes in 3.5 years, not in one eye. The summer terrace has increased by 2 times and has become very noisy. A curling iron opened nearby, which is why there is a mix of different music on the speakers of the two establishments. The atmosphere at the flight is disgusting. In general, I was here for the last time!
We came together with a friend on Friday, unfortunately everything was reserved, but we did not despair and went to the bar, here I would like to mention the bartender Anton, who immaculately helped us with the choice of tinctures and conquered us with his sense of humor, everything was very tasty, after drinking we immediately found a table and were not kept waiting.
The food arrived quickly , despite the full landing . Of the nuances , this is only the fact that two establishments are nearby and the music interrupts one another . But in general, a pleasant atmosphere , good staff and everything is very tasty.
The best restaurant in Minsk! I advise everyone. The staff is the coolest. The tinctures are delicious, the food is delicious too. There are always plenty of places, but it's a bit problematic on weekends.
A very pleasant atmosphere, bartenders Elizabeth and Alexander are very pleasant personalities, complement the atmosphere and help to relax, Elizabeth offered a cocktail tears of a snake, which defines a cheater. The test is passed)
Administrator Ksenia is a friendly and sociable person, she will solve all the questions that arise)

The Matches bar is a real paradise for lovers of a cozy atmosphere and high-quality drinks! Cozy atmosphere, stylish design, the staff is simply charming. Drinks are a masterpiece! Each cocktail is a small work of art, balanced in taste and served with love. Food is a separate song. Incredible snacks, perfect for drinks. If you are looking for a place where you can have a good time, relax and enjoy excellent service, then Matches is your choice! I recommend it to everyone! 5 out of 5!
We visited your place on Sunday evening, there was almost a full boarding, but the waiter Matvey was able to find a table for us, served us very quickly and efficiently, had the most pleasant and good evening
There are also no questions about food and tinctures, everything was delicious and fast.
It seems to me that the stars of this institution put hipsters and these are the girls ( obsessed with anime and painting their faces with flour and charcoal)
The institution goes out at most on a drunk, or rather on tinctures. What was taken from the meal: a classic burger with French fries. Taking into account that there were few tables, they carried it for a long time. The tinctures were brought quickly, as quickly as we drank them.
As for the burgers, we waited a long time, they brought everything barely warm. A friend's cutlet looked like it had been chewed and thrown between the rolls. Don't rely on normal food here. Tinctures, yes. What was heard at the next table, that they were recommended to drink them here. What kind of rating does the institution have here, well, apparently drunks are dragging the rating 🤣
The impression of this institution is ruined once and for all. My first trip to Spichki took place more than 3 years ago and it was a place on Nemiga, then this, and then on Chelyuskintsev. But over the past year, all three places have been on the stop list. At first, on nemiga, they clearly felt that the tinctures were diluted. You don't feel any alcohol at all. Then to Chelyuskintsev. We had 30 shots between us and left the bar as if we were sober. It feels like we were drinking water.
And a couple of days ago we went to these matches and here is the same situation. First we ordered a popcorn shot. He seemed normal to us, but everyone else is just a nightmare. Some are dairy, some are just fruit. After ordering the same popcorn again, we made sure that the taste was the same as the others.
"Matches" was the best bar to go to, but I can't say that anymore. Money was wasted, the mood was ruined. We won't go to these bars anymore.
The place is cool and atmospheric. And the heat in the room is a pleasant temperature. I really liked onion rings (especially with tartar sauce) and vanilla shot (gorgeous) from the menu
Fast, tasty, pleasant staff! I really liked the choice of tinctures / shots and each has its own unusual taste and even texture, so I highly recommend it!
I honestly don't understand why such establishments have such a high rating?
At first, we were in another place where they served better burgers in the city (it turns out you can't call it, Yandex blocks) - a failure! (I already wrote a review on them)
We ran into the Matches to have a "delicious" drink, relax. The summer playground is terrible in terms of design, the beer is like from an exclusive, as if diluted, a tasteless cocktail and there is no wifi!
There was a 20% discount from + on this day, but it is not worth wasting your time on this institution!
I repeat the question, I really don't understand why these places have such a high rating?
We went to an advertised institution, but we just wasted our time! We ordered a burger with beef and cheddar. The waiter said it would take 45-50 minutes to wait, but that the burgers were worth it. OK, we're waiting. Two creations were brought: cold rolls without any hint of roasting, a shapeless, thin, slightly warm cutlet, some pale yellow spot disappears on it (probably cheddar). It felt like the food had just been lying somewhere since yesterday, then they decided to "refresh" it with a lettuce leaf and bring it to us. I really regret that I didn't think to take a picture.
The plus was that without any problems we took these dishes back and did not have to pay for them. It is very strange that with such an overall high rating, we are so "unlucky" (
I hope this really was an exception to the rule.
Excellent workers. Always friendly) and very patient. the place is crowded, so you will have to wait for your order. But if you are an adequate person, this will not seem critical to you.
the best people work. the bartender satisfied all requests, and the waiter Ksenia showed her professionalism in several points: accurate knowledge of the menu, pleasant treatment of customers and assistance in controversial situations
I went to this bar on Sunday evening 15.09 with my friend. At the request of the waiter, he presented documents, but his friend did not have them. The waiter refused to serve me and my friend because he forgot his documents at home. For what reason was I refused service if I presented a document that confirms my age. That is, a father will come home from work with his son (for example, 15 years old) and his father will not be given 2 glasses of beer at his request?
I do not understand this situation and ask you to take action.
The place has gone bad. The quality of service leaves much to be desired. On the day of the 1+1 promotion, when the hall was fully boarded, there was one waitress on shift. We waited 20 minutes until they came to take the order, then waited another 40 minutes for the order itself (drinks, not hot dishes). They forgot about part of the order and reported it only after the question "where?". Fruit tinctures are diluted with water, milk tinctures are poorly mixed and with lumps.
It is assumed that when the reservation is limited in time, the guest is warned aloud and in advance. I absolutely do not want to receive a notification when the table is full of an order, ten minutes before the expected next guest, the bill and the rush to the exit when fully seated in the hall.
At the table next to us, a large company was warned throughout the evening about clearing the table. We, a company of two lovely ladies, were notified 10 minutes in advance of the next reservation, brought the bill and insisted on leaving.
For lovers of wine glasses with pleasant prices and a cozy atmosphere. There are many delicious tinctures, but they are weak in strength, so you will have time to try most of the menu. Very tasty sweet beer. Every day of the week there are promotions that allow you to drink several additional tinctures for free
This place creates an interesting atmosphere, and you can completely relax with friends. The large summer house and friendly staff are especially pleasant. The food here is simply delicious, and the cocktails are amazing. And the choice of tinctures is interesting and attractive. In general, this is a great place to spend a pleasant time with friends or family. I recommend it to anyone who appreciates high-quality service and a pleasant atmosphere.
A great place to hang out with friends. Very very very tasty tinctures in a large assortment. Liquid alcoholic popcorn (one of the tinctures) is forever in my heart. The hall is small, in the cold season, while there is no summer terrace, you need to book a table in advance, especially on Sunday.
everyone from Oktyabrskaya Street goes to the toilet here, visitors cannot get there on weekends. I advise you to restrict access to the toilet so that only visitors can go there. otherwise, everything is super, the service is good, the tinctures are pleasant to drink. I came hungry one day, took a hot dog, it was perfect!
We ordered tinctures and burgers. The tinctures seem to be diluted. Burgers are one name. They brought cold ones and after the remark they took them away and brought them warmed up in the microwave. The cutlet is sooooo thin and there is some kind of liquid substance, as if it were not cheese, but grub
The cutlet was falling apart and it was not well done, but liquid, as if it had been soaked in water.
I don't know how this place has a rating of 4.9
My opinion is a maximum of 3.2
Everything was terrible
We were sitting outside, the waiters were polite, everything was fast and delicious. The tinctures are top-end. There was a wind and it was fun. The tables are clean.
A dubious establishment. The staff is not interested in customer service. Tinctures are generally OK, but there is a much more interesting place nearby and with the same pricing policy!
