Magnificent rooms in the building and with interiors in the style of the Stalinist Empire, with beautiful mosaics and preserved from Soviet times the location of shopping areas. On the ground floor, the famous Dream cake and other pies made according to Soviet recipes are sold in the dining room. Previously, cooking was also provided, but now, alas, instead of classic Soviet cooking, regular fast food (mini pizza, white bread, sausages in dough, etc.). On the second floor, as before, there is a grocery store. Now it is a store of the Euroopt company with a characteristic network assortment and prices. It should be noted that it is quite a decent assortment and reasonable prices. BSB Bank's exchange office is also located on the second floor. It's worth going in at least to look at the interiors and take pictures against their background, as well as drink coffee with nostalgic pies according to a real Soviet recipe.
A wonderful store in terms of location, equipment, and interiors. The only drawback in this sense is a steep staircase to the trading floor: not everyone can do it. Is it really impossible to install an escalator in such a visited shopping facility?
But the main and easily removable puncture is the people who work in the trading floor. I understand that the product distributor is not required to answer questions, but there are no others who can be asked these questions in the hall. Today, for example, I asked where the Food & Go products that were placed in a separate refrigerator had gone. Today it turned out to be empty. The girl explained without a shadow of a doubt that they were all sold, and it was only by chance that I found them in the culinary department. Another time, when I asked about Lyakhovichi curds, the lady who was laying out the goods in the dairy department answered me rudely and indignantly: "We don't sell their goods!" Whereas they are almost always on delivery, and why the girl is outraged, I do not understand.
I have no complaints about the people at the self-service checkout. They are polite and will help if necessary.
A legendary place for Minsk residents. The best store in the 80s and early 90s. Today, on the 1st floor you can have a quick and tasty snack, drink tea, coffee or draft beer. And of course, to buy a very delicious, for my taste, "Dream" cake, which is made only here!
