A cozy place, very tasty and satisfying. The staff is friendly, they served quickly, they suggested how the dishes of Belarusian cuisine are called correctly. We had lunch for about 1,500 Russian rubles for two people
A great cafe. We had lunch 2 times in 2 days and were very satisfied both times. Delicious. The lunch menu is not expensive. The "holodnik" is especially good. Excellent pancakes and pancakes. Special thanks for the playlist.
Hearty delicious food, budget prices, friendly staff, high-quality service, there is enough space for a large family. I liked everything. If you are looking for a place to eat, I recommend it.
Delicious and original dishes based on traditional Belarusian cuisine. It feels like fresh and high-quality products are being used. At the same time, the cost is so humane that at first we thought it was an error in the invoice. And if we visited for the first time (although not by chance, but on the recommendation of local residents) because it was convenient in location, then we went to lunch on purpose for the second time.
Very tasty, very satisfying, very much, very fast!!!! Homemade lemonades are insanely delicious. The local cuisine is above all praise. The prices are affordable. If you eat, then here!
An atmospheric place. No particular complaints, but there is something here. Heavy antique wooden furniture, dark brown color - also antique.
The cuisine is good, there are national dishes. I especially remember a pancake the size of a frying pan and stuffed with meat. Yummy! Drinking calvados is also fun.
Prices are more than reasonable, especially against the background of Russian ones.
It wouldn't hurt to cheer up the staff, but on the whole it's passable.
I recommend.
Last night's visit to the Upper Castle cafe left a very unpleasant impression. When my family and I went there, half of the tables were empty. There weren't many visitors. We wanted to order pizza first, but the waitress said that we would have to wait for her for more than an hour! Of course, this did not suit us and we had to choose other dishes. There were 5 of us. We ordered 1 serving of pancakes with meat, 2 servings of beef medallions with grilled vegetables and 2 pans with potatoes and sausages. The wait lasted about 40 minutes. And then the most interesting thing began! Finally, they brought ONE plate with medallions (3 pieces of beef) and a portion of pancakes. That is, two people are eating, and three are sitting at an empty table at this time! It lasted about 15 minutes! Then, finally, they brought ONE frying pan (ALTHOUGH THERE SHOULD BE TWO) But, unfortunately, instead of the declared sausages, it simply featured sliced chicken ham. The waitress couldn't explain why... I had to give up this dish. But the most interesting thing happened next! To our question, where is the second portion of medallions with vegetables, the waitress declares that we were served two portions in ONE plate! How were we supposed to understand this and how to eat such a dish?!!
- the waitress's answer!
We have never seen such a boorish attitude of the staff in any institution! As a result, the mood was spoiled, 3 out of five people were hungry, and we did not even hear an apology from the waitress...
We were pleasantly surprised by such a wonderful cafe. On a hot day, sitting on the terrace is just great. The portions are large, delicious and the prices do not bite
The way draniki is cooked in this cafe is a shame!! Very fatty, thin and most importantly not tasty! Fried in very old oil.
Lula kebab is too salty and not tasty
The salad was 2 out of 5.
Lemonades are not homemade as indicated on the menu, just water with syrup
The wait for the dishes is very long
Do not go to this cafe, do not spoil your mood and do not spend money on this disgrace of cooking!
The food could not be evaluated. The cafe is tiny, the hall has 5 tables literally, at 16 o'clock on May 9 it was full. The veranda is much more spacious than the hall, but it was cold outside and in such weather to eat on the veranda...You understand that. The staff is a girl at the counter and a running boy. They do not conduct, they do not seat. Resume: this is not a cafe, but a bar for unassuming customers.
In general, it's fine. Polite staff, fast service. The draniki did not make an impression, the homemade ones are better. According to the reviews, more was expected.
The price of food is good. They cook quickly. The dishes taste pretty decent. But some dishes are just warmed up. The dranik in the pot in the center of the dish was cold. The problem is more in maintenance and service. The tables are dirty. After other guests, they are wiped. 03.11 there was a guy and a girl on shift. There are no questions for the girl, she is very friendly. The waiter guy doesn't know how waiters should communicate. You greet him, he ignores, responds rudely. Have a conversation with him about communicating with clients.

I'll give it 5 stars anyway. A good cafe, large portions, affordable prices. And the location is good, and the coffee is good. Soups and hot dishes were served to us normally, without any special refinement, but they do not pretend.
The only thing is a salad with poached egg, honey mushrooms and something else for almost 9 rubles.
The idea was probably good, but the execution was simply nothing.
The salad was floating in some kind of liquid made of oil and vinegar, the egg was overcooked, the protein with a loose structure, pickles and canned honey mushrooms finished it all off. And Dijon mustard in the composition is also high in vinegar, since it is purchased. In general, somehow it was all brightened up by two glasses of homemade limoncello. If it wasn't for them, there would have been a scandal.
We got here by accident. Here are the best pancakes in Belarus, without excess fat and moisture. We come to Belarus three times a year to eat delicious food, so I know what I'm talking about. And pork steak!!!!! It's impossible to describe! It is juicy and has a very really pork flavor, with a subtle aroma of some spices. I'm thrilled! Thank you very much!!!
Our order was small, only three dishes. As a result, the dumplings were waited for 40 minutes, the clemzliks (barely warm) for an hour. Moreover, the last dish was originally brought to another table.
The fried dumplings were in very modest quantities and seemed to be boiled, not fried. Well, the cherry on the cake: a warm sbiten, the origin of which they persistently did not want to tell me.
Yes, it's cheap. But for a long time and not so tasty. And the service leaves much to be desired, of course.
I really liked the food. Girls too. Friendly and polite. The prices are adequate. I was at lunch, everything was brought within a couple of minutes, although I was set up to wait. In general, everything is cool.
It's a good place. I would like to update the interior a little bit. There are few dishes on the menu, not all are delicious. The contingent there is specific. The prices are excellent. Cheaply.
Simple, clear and delicious food. Of course, there are questions about the service. But if you don't get hung up on them, then the place is quite possible to visit. Moreover, it is more than well placed for tourists))
It's delicious, the service deserves a tip, the prices are very pleasant.
If you are a tourist, I advise you. The cafe is just behind St. Sophia Cathedral.
Сегодня посетили семьей данное заведение. Были проездом. Поели отлично. Очень вкусно и душевно. Девушка-официант, которая нас обслуживала, передала повару все наши пожелания так, как нужно и мы получили то, что хотели, так как у жены аллергия на злаки и муку. При случае, заеду еще.
Из драников, пляцек белорусский, вне всяких похвал 👍
It's the most disgusting place I've ever seen in our two cities. The service is slow and unfriendly. Salad of wilted products. The meat is tough and does not chew. Borscht is also unknown from what. Maybe something has changed since my last visit a couple of years ago, but I have such a negative impression that I still have no desire to return for verification.
The place is in a good location, the prices are reasonable, but alas, the food is tasteless. And unsalted. The waitress tried her best and there are no complaints about her, but we must at least keep an eye on whether there are napkins on the tables or not.
The organization is bad. We ordered several identical dishes for several people, brought them in one plate, the food is cold, they do not warn about the lack of food, sliced ham was thrown into a dish with sausages. If you don't want to spoil your mood, don't come here
The food was not bad, it was delicious! But attention TO ALLERGY SUFFERERS, they can bring a dish, even if you warn several times about food allergies. They will pretend that they made a mistake and changed it, but no, they did not change anything!
If you don't suffer, then everything is OK!!
I really liked the cafe. Small, atmospheric. The menu is not big, but as they say, everything is to the point. We ate the first, second and flatbread with cheese - we liked everything very much, there is a knuckle on the menu. I really liked it.
Because we had a fight at the checkout
Staff
Calculated
The order was brought
And they called the police
After which the person
They were taken away for drinking alcohol right from the table
Is this normal?
Wherever the director is looking
It was that Saturday
The cafe is cozy. After reading the reviews, we decided to stop by on the way home to eat here. Meal... We ordered Belarusian soup, it's too salty. Caesar salad on the contrary without salt. The dumplings are not cooked a little bit. In short, we are disappointed. Maybe we were so unlucky...

A good and not expensive cafe for unassuming people. There is music and a summer playground. Parking behind the cafe near the stadium. The sign says "862"
European cuisine - draniki, mochanka, etc.
After all, Polotsk is the center of Europe, if you didn't know.
All the locals recommended this cafe
The food is delicious
The service is poor, we had dinner and lunch...both times the dishes were not brought at the same time, i.e. one person had already eaten, the second one had just been brought...
Хорошее небольшое недорогое кафе. Были в сентябре-2022 днём.
Оформление под таверну - мебель из тёмного дерева, тускловатый свет, мутно-белые стены. Зал небольшой - столов три 4местных, три 2местных и один мест на 10.
Меню насыщенное, только десертов мало - лишь мороженое и фруктовая тарелка.
Время подачи блюд:
- Чай - 3 мин;
- Сковородка по-деревенски - 6 мин;
- Шашлык - 8 мин.
Порции нормальные, всё вкусно. Шашлык суховат, но в целом OK.
WiFi - запароленная точка доступа, скорость к/от себя - 3/0,5 МБит/с.
Музыка - современная русская попса, звучит то громковато, то тихо (клипы не выровнены по громкости). Идёт через YouTube, поэтому иногда будут показываться политические ролики.
Туалет - 2 кабинки с общей раковиной в предбаннике. Вроде как есть разделение на М/Ж, но значки такие маленькие, что мало кто сразу заметит. Для рук сушилка, бумажных полотенец нет
Вкусно и не дорого! Играет фоном мой любимый рок. В пешей доступности от основной местной достопримечательности(Софийский собор). Туалет чистый, обслуживание быстрое. Ребра вобще огонь!
Poor service, there was practically no one in the restaurant, they served with arrogance and malice. The food was not delicious, the feeling that yesterday's food was warmed up, partly it was cold food and sometimes warm. I won't come here anymore
I didn't like it. It is not clear what caused such a high rating.
The portions are small, the soup is tasteless.
I ordered melon-kiwi lemonade (it should be in the photo on the left), they brought it is not clear what - neither kiwi nor mint. Chemical melon syrup diluted with ordinary water (not even soda).
Definitely NOT recommended
