A great place, polite staff, always clean. Croissants are very tasty. Americano is very sour in cooking, but cappuccino and espresso are fire tonic.

We came to Minsk from Moscow and decided to visit this coffee shop. I liked the coffee, we took the last curd ring from the counter. Everything was very tasty, we recommend it.

A "peculiar" coffee shop. Nice interior, but somehow uncomfortable. Polite, but very serious, "without a spark" staff. A good menu: breakfasts, desserts, drinks. As for the coffee, it's a disappointment. The double cappuccino is cool, the temperature is not maintained, the weak coffee taste is more like a latte. Maybe it's the heat that's to blame?

I am a regular customer of cooking. I go to places near the house 2-3 times a day. Here, on the way, it was necessary to charge the laptop quickly and decided to go to this coffee shop. And then it turns out that you can only sit with laptops without an outlet. So-so franchise…

It's a very cozy coffee shop with an interior, and there's never been a question about the staff either. But this is the only coffee shop where the coffee machine covers everything with its sound.

I came to Minsk and, of course, the first thing I did was go to your coffee shop to try those very curd rings.
And now I am deeply depressed, because I can no longer imagine life without them.... They're just incredible. Eclairs, round croissants and cakes are no worse, by the way)
Unfortunately, I don't like coffee, but the huge range of Brewing allows me to enjoy other drinks. Who knew that tarragon and cucumber are such a wonderful combination.
Now we will definitely have to return to Minsk........yes

I liked everything. A cozy cafe. It's really small. I thought there would be more looking at shorts). The staff is good. The guy brought me an order at the table (latte and chocolate croissant), the girl was smiling :). The coffee seemed delicious, but even though it was a big cup, it was somehow not enough for me. The croissant is good. Big, delicious. I liked everything. And the price is normal (I gave 13 rubles for everything).

It is beautiful and cozy as in all coffee shops of the chain. But the coffee was terrible. I always choose the same one in all coffee shops. For me, the meaning of the coffee chain is that the drinks are prepared in all the same taste. But in Cooking, this is not the case at all (

I was in Minsk on a business trip, decided to visit this coffee shop after I came across videos with it on the web.
Expectation and reality turned out to be incompatible.
Instead of polite treatment and cultural staff, I received a piggy attitude and a lot of negativity.
There were only 2 customers in the coffee shop, including me, I made an order, went to an empty seat. I undressed, sat down, took out my laptop.
An employee came up to me with my order and said that you can't use a laptop at these tables. To my reasonable question, "Why?"
I got the answer - "The director is swearing and everyone wants to sit in these places." And I don't get everything and I don't deserve comfort a priori?
Okay, I didn't argue, maybe there really are reasons that I don't understand. I moved.
I was shown a central table, shared, not for 1-2 people, but not for 4-6 people.Where there were no comfortable and soft chairs, but only uncomfortable and hard chairs.
Relaxing with a cup of coffee will not work. I waited 20-30 minutes, and a couple of people added visitors. There was a table against the wall, with more comfortable chairs and a place to charge. I looked around, no one was going to sit there. I calmly took my things and moved over.
After 5 minutes, the same employee runs up and starts telling me that, I quote: "The place for those with a laptop is at that table."
Am I a leper? Is this attitude towards me just because I took out my laptop? I didn't bother anyone, there were empty tables, even the one from which I was initially driven away. I had to spend at most 30-40 minutes on my laptop to solve 2 questions.
Then this employee began to convince me that there are rules and that tables where you CAN'T sit with a laptop are marked with some kind of inconspicuous sticker.
I tried to return to common sense that I was not bothering anyone, there were free seats and NO rules were higher than the laws of the country, according to which he could not forbid me to sit with a laptop at a specific table.
The employee ignored my arguments and began to give examples, which here, again, I quote, "like in the army. where you can't use the phone and everyone listens."
The only thing left for me to assume was that the employee was out of his mind, I did not want to spoil the mood of others. But I really wanted to send an employee with 3 letters. In the end, I just left.
I got a spoiled mood, complete disappointment and a pack of piggy attitude from the coffee shop staff.
The beautiful cover turned out to be just a wrapper, and inside there was a frank g@vno.
For coffee 3 out of 5, croissant 9 out of 10, I think you understand the service.

According to the reviews about the guy with glasses, he absolutely ruined the whole impression of the institution.He behaved rudely, did not say hello, did not answer questions about the ingredients, brought another dish instead of the one ordered.
I will not come to this particular cooking anymore.
Everything was fine for coffee)

Disgusting cooking. When asked why the food looks so bad, the staff replied, "I do not know what to offer you." I ordered similar dishes at other Varka coffee shops and the food looked much better.
The staff is very unfriendly.

We visited the coffee shop twice
We came , took a large table , as soon as we sat down and started talking, an employee came up to us, interrupted us and very arrogantly asked: Are you going to place an order at all , to which we replied that yes , we will place an order
They brought us an order , everything was mixed up , the terrible attitude towards guests from the staff ( two guys worked then )
The second time, too, we did not have time to take a table when the same employee came up to us again and again: are you ACTUALLY going to order something?!
Terrible boorish attitude !
There is no desire to visit this institution anymore, although it is very cozy inside

I bought coffee in this coffee shop several times, everything was fine, but yesterday 05/06/2024, I ordered coffee and asked to enter my phone number to use your loyalty system, which the girl in your other coffee shop told me about, but the guy who was on shift refused me, argued that many people do not say their phone numbersplease find out why only this barista has such trust problems, and if you have had such cases, then set up verification by SMS code, because your application is not available in the Apple Store if there is any European region

I'm upset because an important meeting was disrupted today…
We have long agreed to discuss working issues in a free cafe environment and chose Cooking on Dzerzhinsky… We bought coffee and dessert, decided to open a laptop to announce the assortment (there was no phone), but we were forbidden to use it ... the meeting did not continue because of this, it broke down, the issues were not discussed. I wrote it in a book, but rather to relieve my indignation and later understand why... a girl working in a coffee shop explained that some people work like this all day ... but I didn't need these some laptop for a short time. I constantly went to the cafe with the children, but now the sediment

After the YouTube videos, I really wanted to visit. And so it happened that at last there was an opportunity to come to Minsk (I myself am from Russia), and of course I could not go in. I got to replace the bass player from the video, which made me doubly happy. Everyone is very polite, and coffee and cottage cheese rings are just space. Of course, I can't compare with the prices in Minsk, but by Russian standards, the prices are very pleasant, and even more so for such delicious pastries.

I haven't been to this cafe for two years. For old times' sake, I dropped in for a hearty meal while the car was in service. It turned out that it was now impossible to go to them with a laptop (only at the central table in plain sight).
Upd, because the business responds with a copy paste template, immediately getting ahead of itself:
- I did not notice any stickers at the entrance, as well as at the checkout. They are most likely inconspicuous. Successfully placed an order for 35+ rubles (for warm-up...) And I left it for you, bon appetit.
- comb everyone's hair in one comb... Well, so-so. Open a working laptop to be in operational communication while you are having lunch, and the people who are sitting like in a coworking are DIFFERENT people. There is discrimination on the face compared to those who watch YouTube from a mobile phone (with a power bank) or read a book... the same 4-8 hours for 30 rubles of the receipt. Instead of a more understandable rule: the length of stay depends on the receipt (or the frequency of orders) - we will simply declare everyone with a laptop "enemies" and put them at the most uncomfortable table. I'm giving you a standing ovation. According to the law, you really have the right, but, please note, visitors cannot be forbidden to come to the cafe, take a table and study your menu tomorrow morning and in shifts for six months. And their behavior will also be legal.
And from me personally: make the sign that laptops can't be MUCH more catchy. And also contact the founders of the network to add a note about your special conditions in the application. Thank you.

Discrimination against people who come with laptops. They establish their own rules that contradict the Constitution and the Law on Consumer Protection. I hope someone will call the police on the fact of an illegal denial of service, if you have an electronic device with you more than a phone)) To explain to the owners that they are engaged in arbitrariness and their internal rules contradict the constitution and the law on consumer protection

Delicious coffee and a cozy atmosphere. But they were forced to move because you can't sit anywhere at the laptop except at the central table (If it is done in order to free up space from working people, then you can make an outlet at least at the central table for those who still want to work a little. I went in for 30 minutes to finish the job, but there is no charging for the laptop. It's a pity that I managed to place an order, so I would have looked for another place.
