I didn't see any disadvantages. Extremely tasty!! If you want to try Belarusian national cuisine, I recommend it. A large selection of dishes and, indeed, you will swallow your tongue)))
Today the whole family visited the cafe "Cornflowers".
The parents (pensioners) wanted to go out somewhere to sit in the city. I suggested your cafe. I was here for the last time about 5 years ago (I live in another city now).
To be honest, nothing has changed in 5 years. Well, if only it got better. Everything is at the highest level: food, serving, service, attentive waiters and the administrator. We needed a table for 6 people. There was a queue at the entrance. And it's understandable why people are willing to queue up to get here! The girl politely asked to wait for a table to be available. Our waiter Abrazhevich Maxim (I'm sorry if the last name is spelled incorrectly!) is just a laaaaapochka. A professional in his field!!! Very attentive, nice and polite.
The parents were very pleased and even decided to take it as a tradition to gather at your place. Good luck to you, good visitors and thank you for a wonderful evening!
The restaurant was good, the service was terrible, the sockets were turned off for some reason, there was no way to charge the phone, you waited for any drink and dish for 25-30 minutes, and the waiters for another 15 minutes. Unfortunately , they 've ruined what we all liked so much over the past year .
Cornflowers in the shopping center next to the train station is the most lame cafe I've been to lately. We were very poorly served. They did not have ice, respectively, they could not make half of the drinks (they went with the mood to drink cold drinks). In addition, they could remove ads with a selection of seasonal lemonades from the table, since they can't make them anyway.
They couldn't put us in properly, although we went in and warned that in three hours we would come with suitcases and a disabled person, that we needed a comfortable place.
The staff / kitchen simply does not have time to serve half of the landing, so there are kilometer-long queues from all entrances, which mix with each other and are very actively in conflict.
The waiters are unable to serve dishes to all the guests at the table at once. The soup was brought to one person, the others sat looking at each other while the soup was cooling, although we asked to serve everything at once. The waitress rolled her eyes at additional questions about the dishes, clucked while choosing a drink from what they can provide on Sunday in the middle of the day.
They brought a cold mix of dumplings and dumplings with potatoes. There were bones in a dish with dumplings with cherries. The waitress again rolled her eyes and explained that they did not sort through the semi-finished products, as they brought, so they brought.
Thus, the receipt was not at all budget-friendly for such an entourage and service.
If it is possible to choose another place for the meal, do it.
And another mega important thing: do not take cream sauce for pancakes, make a choice in favor of sour cream, it is definitely tastier.
Unfortunately...My favorite Cornflowers upset me ...there was a transfer from the train to the train station in Minsk...I had 40 minutes at my disposal for breakfast...I ordered oatmeal with banana from the breakfast menu.... I had to quickly ask them to pack everything with me, since they didn't have time to feed me in 35 minutes...I didn't see any sugar or banana there....unfortunately...a pleasant and delicious breakfast, as well as the beginning of the day, was spoiled...I'm already choking on a tasteless breakfast on the train...
there was always delicious food and almost two establishments in one place. it is very convenient in the location of the institution with the train station. I really wanted to add a separate sign for the waiters, if someone is in a hurry, for example, to catch a train or bus and went to eat. cooking time is from 20 minutes. I waited for the waiter for almost 15 minutes, as a result, this time was critical and the dish would not have had time to prepare for departure. and this time, in such a case, I could spend on taking food with me somewhere. I used to stop and eat here, everything was on time.
Very, very, very long service. Unfortunately, the moment when popularity plays against. There are few waiters, 40 minutes waiting for a dish, which in fact is not possible. In the photo, the famous potato grandmother.... Not only does it absolutely not look like its own photo, but it has also been overheated countless times. The receptionist looked at it thoughtfully for a long time, but removed it from the receipt.
There are no comments on the dishes.
But the waitress girl surprised me. We hadn't had time to open the menu yet, it hadn't been more than two minutes since she had already come to take the order and it was obvious that she was nervous and annoyed by the fact that my daughter and I hadn't made our choice yet. I had to take the first one that caught my eye.
Dessert "Brownie with ice cream" was served to us along with hot. Naturally, the brownie cooled down, and the ice cream floated (.
There was a feeling that we were interfering with the girl's work and she wanted to get rid of us as soon as possible.
But sea buckthorn tea is very tasty) I recommend it!
Well, it would be nice to do a general cleaning.
The wooden panels that decorate the wall near the tables are in great need of cleaning. And the toilet door is just terribly dirty. Everything is black near the handle, very unpleasant and strange
It is open from 10.00. From 10.00 to 11.00, you can only order breakfast. That's it! It's not written anywhere! The waiter did not warn us in advance, we had already made an order, but we had to change everything, and this is the time, considering that we were from the train and hungry. Initially, dirty glasses were brought (changed) and one of the breakfasts (sandwich) was cold (I had to ask to warm it) . In general, it's a pleasure.
I put 2 stars only for a table by the window with a beautiful view. We just came to have coffee at 23:00, I understand that the waiters are tired, but the service is zero, they waited a long time for the menu, the waiter Alexey saw us, decided to ignore us, went to talk to the girls)) A pleasant-looking girl served, but for some reason decided not to carry sugar and a spoon with coffee and tea. The table was not wiped, there were leftovers, sticky stains, napkins that should be clean, were dirty, cinnamon was scattered.
My young and beloved wife, unlike me (but of course I rarely eat in restaurants and therefore for me their prices are something very expensive ..) liked everything! We visited 3 of the entire network of these Minsk national restaurants (in the shopping center Skala, on Lenin Street and at the Train Station with windows on the hotel and towers). National flavor, cast iron plates, delicious and varied national dishes and most importantly a large number of young people who very quickly and kindly serve a very large number of visitors (especially in the city center). But one thing I have learned very clearly is that the way my beloved wife feeds me at home is practically (in density, richness and taste) equivalent to the best menu of Minsk national restaurants. From the homemade borscht I cooked, I will be able to get a wonderful national hodgepodge for a lot of money within 2 minutes (adding 2 slices of lemon, 2 olives and a finely chopped piece of half-smoked sausage lying in the refrigerator).. And I will try to keep silent about the pancakes, although I could not deny myself the pleasure of tasting this national dish in his homeland.
In general, we really liked everything from the forks and spoons of the Tramontino brand to the homemade bread kvass.
Well done, thank you very much.
All the best and prosperity.
Every time we come to Minsk on a business trip, we have breakfast in Cornflowers, beautiful view from the window, good breakfasts, convenient location. But the last time we came at 11:00 and waited for our order until 11:50, we left hungry and angry. We were also late for work. The waiter is hibernating, did not warn that you need to wait a long time, after 35 minutes he said that another 3 minutes and the order would be delivered, 15 minutes passed and then he says "Another 10 minutes you need to wait." And this is not about the main dishes of beef, for example, which take a long time to cook, but about pancakes.
Now I will think 10,000 times to come to this institution.
A wonderful restaurant! Full boarding on a weekday at lunch. We waited a bit. The portions are large. Everything is delicious. The pitch is excellent. Be sure to try cranberry tincture!
It got better after the reconstruction. There are a lot more tables, the waiters are as young as everywhere else, but it is in this institution that they are more responsible.
We arrived with a friend in Minsk on 07/19/24, got off the train and decided to have a snack in Cornflowers at the Galileo shopping center, last time I was at this restaurant in 2016.I didn't like the food, the soup was brought cold, there was terribly salty bacon on top of the pancakes and cepilines, in the salad with chicken breast, the chicken was terribly dry, the pear lemonade on the morse was very sweet, the waiters were tortured and uninitiative,the flow of people is large, even the tables don't have time to wipe, you have to ask.The impression remained bad and the mood was also spoiled.
To be in Minsk and not visit the "Cornflowers" means that you have not been to Minsk! An amazing network with national cuisine!!! Believe me, it's very tasty! We tried, please, half the menu in four days, without repeating ourselves! The portions are large, enough to eat. Match the photos in the menu. The pitch is great! Prices are average, but lower than in Moscow time. Very tasty coffee and desserts. Hot dishes and entrees are on top!!! Service: the waiters are polite and attentive, in national costumes, they know the menu and the composition of the dishes well, they are ready to recommend or offer an alternative. Payment: cash in Belarusian rubles, cashless using MIR RF cards.
Also, the Cornflowers network provides for delivery and ordering "with you".
Thank you for the delicious Minsk)))
Since most tourists come to this restaurant, it has become expensive and not tasty. If you have time, I recommend looking for another food in the area.
It's a great place. Colorful and delicious cuisine. On the first day, we were lucky with an amazing waitress, who suggested the kitchen and drinks. We ordered 5 grandmas))) It was very tasty. The prices are not expensive. I recommend this restaurant.
In the restaurant **Cornflowers** we had dinner with my wife, the hall is not crowded, the tables are oak benches, the atmosphere is like during the USSR, the music matches, the food is delicious, a lot of meat and potato dishes, a lot of drinks, the service is fast and professional. service
It's a great place. After that, you don't want to do anything else. Atmospheric and very very tasty. In the evening, sometimes you have to wait until a place is available. But this indicates the huge popularity of the institution.
This is the lame restaurant at this address! The worst of all that there is in the city! It all started with the fact that we asked for a table by the window. It was kindly provided to us, and after half an hour the pizza Tempo waiter asked three times why we sat down at that table - it turns out it was a pizza Tempo table, and they couldn't seat us at it. This is one time. Secondly, we waited for the dishes to be served for forty minutes on Monday at 12 o'clock. It would have been fine, but all the food was cold. When asked why this happened, I was offered to reheat it in the microwave. Super! In a word - A DINER!
I do not recommend visiting this particular restaurant located at this address! There are no complaints about other Cornflowers all over Minsk - it's always delicious!
Ohhh! Delight! A wonderful chain of restaurants of national cuisine! We were in 3 restaurants of the uh chain in Minsk, it's very tasty everywhere! An interesting serving of dishes, a varied menu and attentive, responsive service! The place is popular and therefore you may not be immediately seated at a table, as everything will be occupied, but it's worth waiting a little.
My favorite "Cornflowers". I always come here when I come to Minsk. Hearty cuisine, thanks to Cornflowers, I fell in love with pancakes. A pleasant place to sit and relax and have a delicious meal.
Good service! We waited for the waiter for 15 minutes and did not wait! They run past, see that we are calling them and pass in silence. No one came up. It's a pity that we didn't enjoy the meal because of the staff! If you don't have enough time, go somewhere else.
We recently visited Cornflowers in Galileo shopping center and were very satisfied. The kitchen is 100 out of 10, the waiters are polite and friendly, a large selection of drinks and alcohol. They served quickly, and also snatched a place near the window)
A gorgeous place, the view from the window is amazing.
We were at rush hour on Sunday. There are a lot of people, but it doesn't feel there. Everything is planned so that no one interferes with each other. The order was quickly accepted and brought quickly. The dishes are very tasty, the liqueurs are fire.
The best place, the food is simply gorgeous, there is simply no tastier!!!! The waiters are polite and kind! If you eat in Minsk, then only in Cornflowers! 120 points out of 100!!!!
It's a great place. The kitchen is like swallowing your tongue. The staff is attentive. The prices are objectively pleasant for such quality and service. We definitely recommend you to visit.
A great and very tasty and budget place! The pancakes are simply fabulous and very tasty!! And a lot of other things are very Belarusian and delicious!
Bombically delicious national cuisine, the most delicious pickles in our lives. The snack assortment is simply ablaze with bright diverse flavors, and one thing can be said about tinctures - a sip of each glass brings a variety of contrasts and everyone will definitely find their favorite. We were served by a wonderful waiter, Konstantin, unobtrusively asking how we were doing and whether we had thought of a new dish. Definitely a recommendation!
Disgusting. If you are limited in time, I do not recommend it. The waitress took the order after 15 minutes, when they came up to her. They asked for a train as soon as possible... After taking an order from the two of us, without passing it to the kitchen, she went to the next table of four people and also recorded their order. After 40 minutes of waiting, she began to bring the order to the next table and it turned out that she mixed up and wrote both tables in the general receipt. We didn't get any tea, salads, let alone hot ones. They asked me to call the administrator three times. As a result, after 45 minutes of waiting, they went to another cafe. A complete mess and the absence of a sane administrator. I do not recommend it. 31.10.2024 Minsk, near the railway station

An amazing place with a great view from the windows. The staff is always friendly and will help with the selection. Somehow they forgot to add garlic to the pickles, so they brought a whole plate😂 All the food is very tasty, and the price tag is nice. The waiting time is always fine. The atmosphere is just fire.
This is our first time in Belarus, we found a popular Cornflower chain and decided to have dinner there. I ordered cabbage soup with rolls with cheese and garlic, and my friend ordered a salad with tuna and potatoes. So the cabbage soup turned out to be so sour that it tickles in the throat, plus the meat was with skin on the bone, it was very uncomfortable to eat it, almost half of the meat remained in the soup.
My friend's potatoes were bland, without seasonings, and very tasteless tuna, all appetite disappeared after it.
The receptionist came up to us, we explained the situation to her, she passed the comments to the kitchen and offered to replace the salad with the SAME one, left and did not return.
We couldn't wait long, so we asked for the bill.
Initially, I said that I would pay for cabbage soup, I ate it all, eating sour bread.
But my friend almost didn't touch the salad, the institution included it in the bill, I had to pay.
Customer orientation, the quality of the dishes leaves much to be desired.
This was the surprise that ended our trip to Minsk
It's not a bad place, overall I liked it. Not great, but a solid 4. I was surprised that there is a queue at the entrance and people are waiting for a table to be available.
I told my friends that I was going to Minsk – they immediately recommended going to the Cornflowers, because this is the best place in the city, etc. They began to praise me very much, that I was already inspired. We decided to go and try it. Beautiful interior, full landings and literally queues have already been assured
Excellent cuisine, large portions, everything is delicious. The waiters are always polite. If I come to Belarus again, I will definitely go to the Cornflowers to eat pancakes with cottage cheese and salmon.👍💗
We were at lunch on Saturday. Among the disadvantages: the queue at the entrance, a very long serving of dishes, more than 40 minutes, the most popular dishes are not available. Among the advantages: drinks are brought quickly, a pleasant atmosphere, if you manage to get to a table by the window; there is national cuisine on the menu.
I do not recommend visiting this particular place. A long wait and dishes that don't match the description, cooked as bad as possible.
Find other Cornflowers in the city and better go there.
An ordinary cafe, they didn't understand such queues in it all over the city, more like just PR. The food was delicious, but there was nothing unusual or wow.
