A must-visit!!! Perhaps the best institution of national cuisine in terms of price-quality-assortment ratio! And the tinctures here seemed to us the most delicious - there is only a choice of 6 names, but it's worth trying each one, and everyone will find "their own"!
We have been to this particular cafe twice (8-10 times online in different cities) - everything is very tasty everywhere (plus or minus), it is better to book a table in advance (especially for the evening), but no later than a day before the visit. In this institution, the service is at a very high level (unlike Grodno, where dirty dishes were not removed from the tables for hours - apparently there is not enough staff). The interior is different - in some establishments it is modern, in some it has a national flavor. Both are here (on different floors). We really liked the assorted dumplings, potato grandmother, ribs (the knuckle was a little greasy, and the ribs were super!), from desserts, the leaves are good (apple filling without a single "membrane-bone)!!!
We will definitely come back, thank you.
A very good chain restaurant of Belarusian cuisine. Everything is delicious and inexpensive, but very high in calories)
The dishes are simple, the portions are very solid, but this homemade food.... mmmmmm.... just a pleasure!
I want to come back and enjoy such a delicious treat so close to any ordinary Russian person) You can take absolutely everything - it will definitely be delicious! Simple serving and artless interior do not make the place bad: it's just a simple place for simple (but very tasty) food!
I definitely recommend you to visit!! And then to the gym) One of the pleasant features is the low price for wine: a bottle of Australian Sauvignon blanc for 1,500 rubles (not Belarusian) is just very good!
Excellent location, within walking distance from hiking trails, stylish interior, balanced menu, national cuisine, the dishes that we ate were quite successful and were eaten without a trace, several types of pancakes, potato dough, delicious local beer. The waiters are great - polite, helpful. The score was taken off during the waiting time, and I'm not even talking about the cooking time (about the fact that they might have been warned for a long time), I understand there was a full landing inside and almost full on the summer veranda. We were met and seated on the veranda, or rather we decided to sit there ourselves, but we sat with the menu for 20 minutes and did not pay attention to us until we caught a passing waiter who brought an order to a nearby table. After that, everything worked out.
Well, what can I say? Delicious, fast, affordable, high-quality.
We visited the Cornflowers cafe and were satisfied. The dishes were brought quickly, the waiter advised competently, and did not impose anything additionally. He was moderately polite and joked at random. He has a separate star) As for the kitchen, I liked everything, especially the pancakes with mushrooms, it's just chanterelle season. Draniki with machanka is an exceptionally traditional dish, I did not go in, draniki are sour in this dish and machanka is for an amateur, I would not order it a second time, but even so, the quality of the products is excellent, everything is fresh and very decent in itself. The interior is in the classic style of Minsk,
A work colleague advised Cornflowers to visit. A pleasant place, its own style, clean and original. Very friendly staff in stylized clothes. The menu is varied. The beer is delicious. But, according to the quality of the dishes ... not very. The refrigerator is delicious, thank you! But the pancakes were fried in rancid oil. very bitter! And potato chips with mushrooms and cheeks did not please. In the end, I just took a bite and asked to pack everything with me....Despite the fact that I love potatoes in any form! I will not speak for my husband (this is a separate story). Many guests like Cornflowers, there were enough people. And we didn't go a second time...
A wonderful idea with local cuisine and a nice interior. Affordable prices, delicious food, and therefore a huge number of people who want to eat here. The order was accepted quickly, but it was completed within 30-40 minutes for hot dishes. Drinks were brought quickly, and in order not to sit without food, you need to order snacks or salads. They took draniki, of course, with various additions. I do not know what they should be in the original, but these are pancakes with potatoes added. There is a lot of flour, I would prefer more potatoes in the composition. Delicious, satisfying. It is possible to make your own impression only by personally visiting the cafe. And of course, for the tourist season, you need to increase the number of chefs.
A chain restaurant of national Belarusian cuisine. We were at the restaurant, which is located opposite the KGB building.
What did you like:
The interior (good-quality furniture, comfortable sofas), there is a large terrace in the summer
The menu - I want to order everything, the set with lard is gorgeous, Pancakes and dumplings in a frying pan too. The delivery is quite fast, given the full landing, we expected that we would wait a long time, but no :) the order arrived pretty quickly.
The staff is friendly, there are no questions for the waiter.
One of the worst things you can encounter is a queue of people who want to take a table, we had to stand in it for 15 minutes. Perhaps it is easier in the summer, because there is a veranda.
Thanks to all the staff of this restaurant, the travelers were well fed)
This is a storehouse of Belarusian food. All the top dishes are on the menu. And everything is done well. An authentic setting. Only dranichkov for every taste. And the herring....MMM. I'm writing and drooling. There is also a drawback. The administrators of the halls are not aware of the availability of seats, and at what stage the guests are. But this can also be turned into a plus. Do not stand in line, but go inside and have never been so I did not find an empty place. But in general, this is a serious disadvantage and requires study. There are a lot of waiters, but they can't collect information. They cannot pass it to the assigned waiter. Therefore, the administrator cannot accumulate information either. Shortly.. Kitchen, top. Tuteisha top. The organization is lame.
A wonderful chain restaurant of national cuisine. Excellent interior with comfortable sofas. Friendly staff. A large selection of dishes. Soups, salads, meat dishes and, of course, branded potato - zeppelins with minced meat, potato grandmother in a pot and several types of pancakes. Everything is sooo delicious. Excellent local draft beer. The restaurant is a success - despite the large number of tables in the inner hall and on the terrace, there is a queue at the entrance at lunchtime.
A restaurant with a pleasant atmosphere, delicious food, large portions, polite waiters.
Since Cornflowers is a "network", there are several of them in Minsk, I was in the one opposite the KGB. My table was served by a very pleasant waiter who always appeared on time and brought the dishes in the right order. The dishes in the photo on the menu completely match those that are served.
If it is important to someone - good quality cutlery, served in a closed form, dishes without chips and cracks, napkins in sufficient quantity, salt, pepper, toothpicks - everything is freely available).
I wanted to try the national dishes, so, of course, pancakes with machanka in Belarusian. Satisfying and delicious.
A beer cocktail tastes good, but not mine. If you are not a fan of complexly composed flavors, it is better to have a separate beer, a separate tincture.
Enjoy your meal! To benefit).
To the restaurant - further prosperity!
There is a cafe on the avenue in a beautiful place, there is a lot of space on the veranda, flowers are outside, the staff works clearly, the service is very good, the menu is inclined to national cuisine, you can eat both draniki and machanka, while there is fish on the menu and for vegans, delicious lemonades, breakfast is given until 11 o'clock, waiting time the norm, according to the receipt, you can have lunch up to 40 rubles, minus - there are no outlets on the veranda, seat cushions are stained, it's time to update
One of the most delicious and now probably the most favorite restaurants for us in Minsk🙌🏻
After arriving in the city, we immediately went here for lunch. Everything is very tasty, satisfying, there is plenty to choose from on the menu. The service is pleasant. Yes, there are really a lot of people, we had to stand in line a little bit (the place is popular). Before we sat down at the table, we were told that some dishes can be cooked for up to an hour. This pleased me, because you can decide whether you will stay here to wait in the end or leave. We decided to stay and as a result, the dishes were brought even faster than originally said.
In general, the impressions are positive, I can definitely recommend the place🔥
Yes. You can and should go here. Firstly, there are the best Draniki in Minsk and the surrounding area, and secondly, everything is very tasty here. The price-quality ratio is good. My daughter and I arrived in Minsk, according to reviews we found a coffee shop and stomped to it km from the train station. We just walked along Independence Avenue and noticed that in the morning the cafe was already filled with people (and this is a good sign). As a result, we didn't like the cafe we were going to at all, but we returned to Cornflowers for lunch with friends. There were a lot of us, and everyone was satisfied. By the way, then we went to another restaurant of this chain, and we liked it a little less. Apparently, there is a good chef here at the moment.
A chic cafe. We tried the delicious local cuisine. It is located in the center of Minsk, near the Main Gate of the city. Now there is a summer cafe, and you can also sit inside.
All the staff are very friendly and helpful, they will come up once again and ask if they need anything else. They know all the details about the dishes. They can advise you on the choice. We really liked the food. Unfortunately, there is no photo. But it's delicious. We tried pancakes with and without filling, hand-made dumplings, cepillines, mors and lemonade, dessert chocolate pie. Yum-yum))))
And once again I returned to my native restaurant! The dishes are delicious as always! The waiter Sonya is a good, attentive girl! He always asks if you liked the dishes, if everything is good. Thank you very much! (Entry 2024)
The restaurant is gorgeous!!!! Cool Belarusian design. The food is served in large portions and very hearty. My friends and their little sister are thrilled!!!! The staff is responsive and positive. Hot dishes are cooked for about 40 minutes, but because of the atmosphere, time is not felt. The Ministry is well-planned. Children are given a coloring book. The waiter Dmitry served perfectly! I brought everything quickly :) (Entry 2022)
Cafe Cornflowers is a pleasant place, vacationing in Minsk, we came here for lunch and dinner, a good assortment, delicious, it is important that the food is brought hot, it is very important that friendly young people waiters work quickly, although the cafe was packed on Saturday and Sunday, there was a queue on the street at eight in the evening ten people to come in, this is what Is he talking? Well done! Thanks to the kitchen.
A wonderful atmosphere, immersing in the Belarusian flavor, delicious national cuisine and pleasant prices.
I would especially like to mention the work of the waiters Yana and Arseny - they were incredibly attentive and friendly, creating a truly cozy and friendly atmosphere.
Everything was very tasty, especially the salad with warm chicken, pork ribs and pancakes!
I definitely recommend this place!
A great place for both a quick lunch and a measured dinner in a pleasant company. Everything is delicious, with an emphasis on national cuisine. The stars were removed for the absence of a business lunch menu at lunchtime on weekdays. I don't know if this is related to a "tourist" place (for example, in an institution on the Ave. Independence, 87 business lunch menus are always given) or with the desire of the administration to earn more (the profitability is lower at business lunches). A trifle, but unpleasant ((
It is still one of the most interesting chain establishments in the city, with a constant queue of those who want to relax.
A varied menu for a wide range of tastes, wonderful national dishes in excellent execution.
A convenient, long bar map with very high-quality positions.
Extremely attentive and correct service, and well-deserved tips.
I can safely recommend any company
It's a beautiful place. Very tasty pancakes, wonderful mushroom soup, great lemonade, delicious borscht with a ton of meat and magical Moldovan homemade wine.
And the prices are lower than in most cafes in St. Petersburg and Moscow.
You definitely need to look in if you are a tourist.
90% of the dishes are made from potatoes. Potato Paradise)
The service is great. The guys are friendly. There is WiFi for guests, but if the access point is far away (at street tables), then the waiters offer to distribute it from their phone. The best service.
Guys, make the QR code on the tip receipts already. I couldn't leave a tip, all the money is on the card.
PS: for Russians, payment in cash or with a mir card. Keep in mind. The visa and the master turn into a pumpkin.
For visitors, this place is just a cannon, in one place you can try all the local dishes. reasonable prices, everything is insanely delicious, a large selection on the menu.
Interesting interior inside.
What you might not like if you get into the hours when everyone is going to have breakfast / lunch / dinner, you will have to wait for a free table at the entrance. Also, if the kitchen is very busy, the waiting for dishes can last up to an hour.
Walking around Minsk, we planned lunch at the Cornflowers. My daughter and son-in-law were advised as one of the best chain restaurants of Belarusian cuisine. We found the nearest one. Located in the center. We were offered a place on the second floor. They chose it for the kitchen, as the heat outside was hellish. The interior is stylized. The tables are large and comfortable. A comfortable distance between the neighboring one. There are a lot of visitors-they are prepared for a long wait. The drinks were taken out immediately. They suggested adding lemon to the beer, which surprised me a little. This is very unusual!!! It's delicious in itself, and I'm not a beer lover, but lemon has added pleasant refreshing notes. The main dishes were served in 30-40 minutes. We took traditional pancakes in various versions, salads, soup and assorted dumplings baked in a creamy sauce-it's just a bomb. Be sure to try it. Everything is very, very tasty. The portions are large, the price is affordable (six dishes with drinks cost 3 t.r. in terms of Russian). The service is high-quality. The staff is polite and friendly. Tips can be left in Belarusian or Russian rubles, as well as deducted from the card.
I would like to note that during our trip to Belarus, we tried draniki in various versions and in different establishments, including pretentious ones (I will write in another comment necessarily)- everywhere they cook in different ways and sometimes at an exorbitant price. Here is one of the best offers regarding price, quality, taste, and serving. But dumplings are still my favorite!!!
We visited the same restaurant in Vitebsk. I will tell you more about this in the next comment.
Great appreciation to the staff!!!
We definitely recommend it!
It's a great place. I would say that it is a popular favorite. I recommend it to early breakfast lovers. From eight in the morning, you can have a very tasty and satisfying meal. Very cool ready-made options, plus the possibility of an individual choice from porridge to fried sausages. Good coffee and delicious tea. The staff is at the highest level. They are polite and friendly, in other respects, like all the Minsk residents with whom I had a chance to talk.
A wonderful place where you can not only taste the dishes of the national Belarusian cuisine, but also plunge into the atmosphere of Belarus. Read the poems of the Belarusian classic Bogdanovich.
Very tasty pancakes, a meat treat and branded Belarusian beer. I would also like to mention the polite and pleasant staff, especially the waitress Elvira, who served us!
We recommend you to visit!
The restaurant of the national Belarusian cuisine is spacious, cozy, large veranda, lots of light, renovated in bright colors, it's nice to be in it. The service is fast, polite, and not intrusive. The menu is large and varied. They cook delicious. We were in three restaurants of this chain, it was delicious everywhere. The prices are average. This restaurant is open from 8 a.m., there is a separate decent menu for breakfast. I advise you to visit.
Unexpectedly delicious for a chain restaurant. And it is democratic in terms of price. A restaurant of national cuisine, which is its charm. Good service. There is only one drawback-quite often you have to stand in line to get into it. But this is if you didn't book a table in advance and came at rush hour. The place is very popular both among tourists and Minsk residents. I recommend.
Well, in general, a solid five for the location, working hours, ESPECIALLY the MENU!!!!
With regard to food, everything is delicious, the products are excellent, the choice is huge! (I tried items from the menu in restaurants, the taste is not very different).
The staff are young people, active, energetic, as well as 5 points.
There was an "incident" in 3 days of visiting this cafe, they brought an unfinished carp, the dish was handed over, they did not include it in the receipt, they apologized, in general, an ordinary situation for any cafe.
I visited Belarus this summer, I am very happy with the trip! I had dinner at the Cornflowers in Minsk, I am grateful to the staff, wonderful attentive and friendly waiters, I got acquainted with traditional cuisine, I will not say that I became a fan of it, but I always like to try local cuisine when traveling to other places. Cornflowers has a large selection and decent service! I wish this network prosperity and stability!
I highly recommend it! We came in once, then went every day several times! 🙂 Extensive menu, absolutely everything is sooooo delicious! I tried every dish - it's very tasty! There is often a queue of visitors to the restaurant, it doesn't take long to wait - 10-15 minutes, but isn't this an indicator of the quality of the institution?!! In addition to delicious dishes and good drinks, there is also a wonderful price tag! The prices are very affordable! The portions are large. It is quite possible to eat one dish. But it is unlikely that you will be able to stop, because it is very tasty! Potato casseroles stuffed with beef cheeks and sauce of champignons and boroviki… Just one love!
Great delicious food.We were in the center of Minsk. I liked everything. There was something to compare it with, and as a result, we ate breakfast and dinner here at different times for almost 4 days. Many of the waiters are friendly. It's a pity sometimes I heard a mate from their conversations, the child was sorting it out. Cool liqueurs, after which you feel great. We were on the advice of the Litvinys, we regretted that we went there. If you have a delicious meal, drink and to choose, understanding that you take it here, and if you go to a pretentious place to check in there...
A very colorful Belarusian restaurant chain! Everything is as it should be in the national Belarusian cuisine - delicious, plentiful, fatty, potato! The portions are large, so you need to control yourself when you want to try everything at once. We managed to have breakfast, lunch and dinner, so we had a full meal on the menu. In the evenings, it is packed, up to queues of people waiting to board, so it is better to book in advance (and they do not book day after day, only for subsequent days, take into account when planning trips). The price tag is normal, 1.5-2 thousand per person - in ruble equivalent (with a moderate amount of alcohol)
The restaurant is good. The food is really delicious. You can't think of a better way to get acquainted with the national cuisine. The waiting time is 15-20 minutes. Drinks are a special topic. We decided to enjoy the local flavor, ordered cornflower water and homemade wine. The disappointment is complete. Water is just water. Orange slices and mint leaves float in the jug - they don't add any flavor (I thought it wasn't the first time they were used?) wine is gibberish. They left it. The staff is different everywhere. I was in Cornflowers at the DANA Mall. So they practically pushed them out of the fence while waiting for an empty table (an unpleasant young man is a hostel), but on Independence Ave. 16 the staff is polite and friendly, the service is fast and clear. Two floors with an interesting interior. The food, as always, is delicious. Lemonade and non-alcoholic mojito were taken from the drinks - just great!
The place is good, clean enough, atmospheric music, beautiful and interesting design. The food is delicious, here I tasted the most delicious borscht in my life. The price corresponds to the quality. They cooked for quite a long time, and the waiter did not write the dish in the order, did not repeat the order aloud, well, we had to do without pancakes. But it's still worth a visit.
Very tasty!!! Very satisfying!!! At home!!! As it is drawn in the picture in the menu, those sizes will be))))) There are liqueurs, beer and cocktails, fruit drinks for children, homemade lemonades, smoothies, etc.!!!- this is a delicious yummy, with delicious sour cream...... )))))) The food is delicious and served quickly. For the second time in my life I saw a queue at a restaurant!!!
I recommend it from the bottom of my heart!!!
Beautiful waitresses, delicious and cheap food. National cuisine. Clean, cozy, comfortable.
We have been visiting for several years. This is the best restaurant of national cuisine in the city in terms of price/quality/serving volume/service. The best among the Cornflower food network in Belarus. One of the best overall! Respect to the chef and the administrator.
Our friends recommended this cafe to us. The place is popular, there are queues at the entrance. We wanted to try the national cuisine. Everything that was ordered was delicious. There are no complaints. To be honest, I didn't really like the pancakes. In my understanding, draniki are potatoes, salt and pepper. Here they look more like potato pancakes. But this, as they say, is a taste. Or maybe there is a special recipe here.
In any case, the interior is pleasant, the waiters are very attentive, everything is clean.
Thanks! We will be in Minsk, we will come back.
Positive:
- attentive staff (replaced the chair with a high chair for a child of 3 years)
- delicious food (thanks to the chefs) and local draft beer
- caring staff (they recruited a lot from hunger, but they didn't eat everything: they packed the leftovers with them, and gave them a cup to "pour over" the leftovers of ice cream and even handed them a plastic table set, rather than eating this ice cream to a child in the car)))
Cons:
- not detected
PySy: thank you so much from Moscow)) for your attention and care!!! From the bottom of my heart!)
It is not so easy to find a cafe with national cuisine in Minsk and it is good that there are Cornflowers. There are 11 of them in the city, I think I went to this one, he was on the road all the time somehow))) A spacious two-storey cafe with a summer veranda, a thoughtful and stylish interior with national elements, delicious and inexpensive food. I only went here during the trip and I really liked it, the "grandmother" bewitched me in general, an insanely delicious dish! Once I heard from a nearby table how the guests answered the waiter's question whether they liked it, "if you only knew how delicious everything was!!!" To which the waiter replied, "I know," and smiled. I don't think I need any other words!
On the last day I went on an excursion and for some reason our guide did not advise me to go here, I was even a little offended by the Cornflowers, because I had the best impressions of this place! So don 't listen to anyone and come here - you won 't regret it 👍
Great place! The food is delicious, the staff is very pleasant, the service is at a high level. I tried pancakes with mushrooms, a cold one. I would like to write about the refrigerator separately, at first I thought it was a cold beetroot, because I did not read the composition. It turned out that this dish is made on kefir. I was a little upset at first, but I think okay, let's try. It turned out to be much tastier than I could have imagined! I tried kvass, which is very saturated and even alcoholic! We went there to celebrate a meeting with our family, there were 10 of us and everyone was satisfied. Thanks!
I really liked the cafe! Reasonable prices for tourists for any type of food. We have been to this place 4 times (2 for breakfast and once for lunch and dinner). There are a lot of people there, taking into account the moment that they were on weekends, but even with a full landing, the dishes were not waiting more than 30 minutes.
The staff is very friendly and nimble. Friendly and very cultured. The menu is large, there is something to choose and enjoy. As a connoisseur of strong drinks, I did not have enough varieties of tinctures. There are 6 types and only 2 of the strong ones. This can not be considered a minus, so delicious food wins with a big counterweight 👍
We were on vacation in Minsk, many people recommended this restaurant chain as a place with national cuisine. It is a very visited and popular institution.
It fits perfectly for a company or with a family.
The range of dishes is good, the food is really very tasty. The prices are not bad, we returned again, however, to another place in this network.
The waiters are normal (not great).
Will I come here again - yes, do I recommend it - yes, this place is worth a visit!
In our view, the Belarusian cuisine restaurant on the main street of Minsk was positioned as an institution with a high level of service and the best traditional dishes in the city. Among the advantages, I will note the design of the hall with a folk style. At the time of our visit, there was a full boarding, and therefore we had to wait for the order much longer than the time stated by the waiter. The dishes themselves are quite ordinary, but the price tag is somewhat overpriced. It is recommended for a one-time visit and no more.
A wonderful atmosphere, a cozy summer veranda (the exception may be corner tables, as it is uncomfortable to sit in the bright sun)
The food is delicious, from drinks, in the heat I recommend trying currant lemonade. According to the waiting time, drinks are about 10 minutes, soups 20-30 minutes, hot for about 35-50 minutes. (This time is relevant for lunch and evening workload)
The staff is excellent, well versed in the menu and ready to help with the selection.
I recommend everyone who will be in Minsk to visit this institution.
Great dishes, great interior. No matter what we try, everything is very tasty.
The waiters are great, the guys are trying very hard, there is no time to sit down.
The only caveat is the queue at the entrance, you have to wait about 15 minutes, you need to wait for hot dishes for about an hour, so if you are limited in time, this must be taken into account.
We came tired after walking, and were glad to sit and relax.
I recommend visiting this very good chain restaurant of Belarusian cuisine. We visited this institution both that year and this year. The quality and deliciousness of the dishes remained at the same level. Both locals and tourists visit the restaurant. Therefore, the restaurant is fully loaded all day long. Be prepared to wait a bit, but it's worth it. The waiters are polite and helpful. Everything is delicious and inexpensive, the portions are large. We took different pancakes, it's impossible to break away. You can take absolutely everything - it will be delicious! It's nice that alcohol prices are quite democratic. If you are in Minsk, be sure to visit these restaurants.
Great place! The whole family was in Minsk, we had lunch here twice. I really liked the speed of service and the kitchen. Everything is very tasty! My daughter, who was three years old at that time, chose borscht, we were very surprised by her choice, but borscht is really delicious. To try everything, it was not praised twice. I hope we will return to Minsk and then we will definitely try everything! There may be queues at the entrance, this is the only place nearby where I've seen this.
Delicious, high-quality and with a soul. They cook at home like grandma's, I really like coming here to remember how I used to eat in the village with my family. The staff is very friendly and open. Waiters are gold! I never leave without a tip, they always work for quality. They are sweet and good-natured. Prices are average, but recently I noticed that portions have been greatly reduced, and prices have increased. Sad, but delicious) Recommend
The restaurant "Cornflowers" was marked because of the high ratings. The impressions are generally positive: inexpensive prices, fast and high-quality service, delicious food. However, potato pies stuffed with veal cheeks and mushrooms disappointed. They were tasteless, perhaps due to the fact that they were not toasted on both sides, as well as due to the insufficient amount of mushrooms in the filling. Despite this, the obvious disadvantages were no longer noticed. The restaurant is generally a good choice to visit.
If you want to try the national cuisine at pleasant prices in the city center, then you are here
I've been to this place several times in front of the KGB
Excellent location, polite waiters, delicious national food, reasonable prices
I was there during the full landing and when there were fewer people, food was always brought in a timely manner, I did not wait long
Only breakfast can be ordered before 11:00, I recommend coming after to try the cuisine from the main menu
Excellent cuisine and reasonable prices. Special respect to the chefs for the gorgeous salmon steak🔥
But the impression is very dependent on the staff) Last time we were lucky with the wonderful waiter Maxim, who did everything with a bang. Calmly, competently and with a smile, he solved all the issues, so that we could enjoy the atmosphere of the evening as much as possible ☺️
P.s. If you plan to sit on the terrace in the evening, get ready to stand for 15 minutes :)
