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.
Excellent location in the very center. We rented an apartment nearby, it was very convenient.
The dishes on the menu are all hearty, there are many national dishes. Salads, snacks, local beer, cocktails. But keep in mind that a variety of pancakes, dumplings in hot pans are quite fatty. The restaurant has a pleasant atmosphere, and a summer terrace is open in the warmer months.
On the downside, there were long queues in the summer to wait for free tables, the place is very popular with tourists. At the same time, the service itself is quite fast.
We visit Minsk regularly and always try to have dinner in Cornflowers) Thank you for your work and the atmosphere.
I will say that it is a pleasant atmospheric place in a national style and traditional cuisine. The pitch is beautiful. They serve quickly, everything is clear. I didn't try everything, but what I took was delicious. The drinks are decent, I can't say about alcohol, I don't drink, but the neighbors were happy to order. The only thing is that the flow of tourists is such that there is a queue of 5-10 people at the entrance and waiting for an empty table. I think it's better to book a table in advance. We were lucky, there were places on a weekday afternoon, but it was tight. The staff is polite, but seems a little tired. I highly recommend you to visit!
A good place to enjoy Belarusian cuisine. Borscht, draniki and cocoa were tested.
Positive:
1. Delicious food and drinks. The borscht was very good, the pancakes and cocoa did not disappoint either. For its price, great.
2. A large selection of Belarusian cuisine and alcohol.
3. Pleasant atmosphere. The decor and staff create the feeling of a real Belarusian tavern.
4. Spacious establishment. Even during peak hours, there is a high probability that you can find an empty table.
5. Good service. The waiter was tactful and polite.
Minuses:
1. Waiting for some dishes. Borscht and cocoa were brought almost immediately, but the pancakes had to wait quite a long time (about 20-25 minutes). Other visitors also faced such a problem, there were several tired waiting glances.
2. Input delay. The administrator had to wait about 5 minutes, which caused a queue to form. It would be better if someone from the staff could come on as a substitute at such moments.
At the moment, "Vasilki" also leave a positive impression.
I recommend you to visit.
It is a very advertised place, everyone knows and recommends it. I liked: a variety of dishes, convenient location, pleasant atmosphere inside, music, dishes, interiors. I didn't like it: the staff is acting strangely and not very well coordinated. At first, we were strictly warned that we would have to wait in line for 20 minutes, but in the end, after 5 minutes, we were already escorted to the table. The girl wiped the table in front of us and did not do it very well, I got dirty with cream that was left on the table from previous guests, they did not take the order for a long time, moreover, the waiters did not seem to be busy. The dishes themselves, admittedly, are very tasty.
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 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.
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.
This cafe is the first, bright, tasty and very kind impression of the city of Minsk. We came across this cozy place from the morning train and were shocked by the balanced breakfasts, the beautiful homely atmosphere, and the smiling young waiters. And there is everything a traveler needs! I really liked the cafe, but in the evening, on the way back, I couldn't get into it - there were no empty seats, although the cafe halls are quite spacious. Apparently, we weren't the only ones who appreciated this pleasant place. We will definitely visit Cornflower on our next visit to Minsk.
I really liked the cafe! Cozy, delicious, a large selection of local dishes. We tried a lot: pancakes, baked dumplings, meat, zeppelins, cottage cheese dessert (well, very tasty!), cabbage soup. There is a queue, especially in the evening, but not long to wait, we were quickly seated at the table both times.
I highly recommend it! Although later the locals told us that the Cornflowers contain pancakes in frozen billets that are brought from somewhere. Maybe the restaurant itself will explain whether this is true or not?
IT'S A GREAT PLACE WITH A GREAT LOCATION, I'VE BEEN THERE MORE THAN ONCE AND I'VE ALWAYS BEEN VERY SATISFIED. THE ROOMS ARE ALWAYS CLEAN, NICE, TIDY, AND HAVE A COMFORTABLE ATMOSPHERE. THE STAFF IS VERY POLITE, ATTENTIVE AND ENDEARING.THE DISHES ARE ALWAYS PREPARED WITH FRESH AND HIGH-QUALITY PRODUCTS.EVERYTHING IS ALWAYS VERY TASTY, BEAUTIFUL AND MOUTH-WATERING SERVING.! WE HAVE ALWAYS BEEN SATISFIED, THANK YOU VERY MUCH.
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))))
An ideal family cafe chain in Minsk.
Price-quality - fire ratio! There are many dishes of national cuisine. Almost everything is very tasty. And we've tried a lot of dishes! The portions are decent. The menu is varied. The waiters are friendly and competent. My husband, 2 children, and I have been to other establishments in the city, but I loved this one the most! I sincerely recommend it to everyone!
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)
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 restaurant with a good selection of local dishes! Pleasant environment. Polite staff. The price tag is very democratic, and the portions are huge! I recommend you to visit! But a tip: it's better to go in advance or book a table, because there's even a live queue for seats. A very popular place. On a day off, my friend and I stood in line for 10-15 minutes at the table and it was lucky
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
The Cornflowers restaurant has forever sunk into my heart, just like Minsk itself!
Very tasty! Very cozy! Very friendly!
I liked everything!!!
If you are visiting Minsk, be sure to visit this corner of Belarusian cuisine!
It warms in every sense of the word!
Everyone will be able to find something for themselves to their liking and of course to their taste!!!
Thanks to all the "Cornflowers" of this wonderful restaurant!
I recommend it!!!
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!
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!
One of the best online places in Minsk. Decent price/quality ratio, varied and delicious menu. Sauerkraut soup is very tasty and satisfying. Everything that was tried from the menu was definitely written to favorites.
Minus for the slow service and poor Wi-Fi. The waiters can not cope with the flow of people who want to, you have to catch them on the run. The Internet was constantly turned off, both on the veranda and inside the establishment
Be in the institution twice. The first time was just fine, everything was delicious, served quickly. The price/quality ratio is also great.
The next day they wanted to come back again. There's a big queue at the entrance, well, we think, okay, we'll take it with us, but it wasn't there. We are told that for a takeaway order, we need to stand in line and sit at a table. The question arises - why, if we are not going to sit? Is it so difficult to accept an order?
In this regard, a minus point
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 Vasilki restaurant offers a rich variety of Belarusian dishes. The food is very tasty! Beef medallions, pancakes with machanka, salad with tongue, fried mozzarella, mulled wine based on cranberries - everything deserves the approval of the chefs' skill. Of the minuses, I note that, apparently, the administrator does not care about checking cleanliness. Unfortunately, the pleasant impressions were greatly smoothed out by dirty toilet doors, a stained mirror, sticky and unwashed tables. Used napkins are lying on the floor, and the waiters just step over. The lamp above the table does not work. The boards on which the dishes were served are dirty. There is no desire to visit this place again!
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.
We have been here 3 times in 3 days. It's a great place. All the staff are very good: the waiters are all very polite, I really wanted to drink and brought some water for free. The food is delicious, the portions are large. I recommend, of course, draniki, I really liked grandma's mushroom soup (you can't pull your ears off mushroom lovers), tinctures, just like homemade ones. The prices are very pleasant, the two of us to eat and drink only averaged 2000 rubles. Of Russia. It's a great place.
A great place with lots of seats and a national flavor. I really like machanka with pancakes (a traditional Belarusian dish) here - although the recipe has been changed a bit lately. I give 5 points to this particular restaurant for the atmosphere, speed and quality of serving dishes. In general, the Cornflowers chain would put 4/4- because in a number of establishments there are questions about the service (indecently long waiting for dishes; they may not bring your order or make a mistake with the order as a whole, etc.)
The restaurant of national cuisine, I highly recommend it to those who have come to relax. National music in the institution adds atmosphere! Food and drinks 10/10, a huge selection, everything is very tasty and served quickly, despite the fact that the hall is often completely filled. There is a queue at the entrance, it is better to book, but we queued for no more than 5 minutes, in any case it's worth it!
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 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.
My review is a little ambiguous! I won't say good, I won't say bad. For the first time in Belarus. Of course, I want the most-the most atmospheric!!! I read
reviews - be sure to visit Cornflowers!!! Here we arrived at 10 a.m., and by two o'clock in the afternoon, of course, for lunch in Cornflowers!!!
Excellent location, unobtrusively quiet music is playing. The menu is mmm.
And now the most interesting thing begins... September 23rd is Monday, not even a day off. There are a lot of visitors, it's great, but.... Of course, thanks to the owners for the great idea, thanks to the staff (young boys and girls)
and of course to the chefs who really try to cope... But the flow of visitors is too large for such a large number of staff. They simply do not have time to feed us such willing people who came here! It is for the national atmosphere!!! Question: Where is the manager? Or the administrator? Everything is just left to chance! The staff is excellent, but they can't cope with such an influx, hence the chaos, dirty tables, and orders that you just forgot to bring or fry🤣
In short, a great place, great staff! And even a good manager, then you can put all 10 stars!!!
I have been several times and always on 5/5. Excellent location - in the city center. Very tasty and hearty dishes, especially pancakes. The service is 5/5 , they suggested what to try from different dishes of national cuisine.the atmosphere is amazing and, most importantly, reasonable prices! I recommend you to visit!
The food is Belarusian or Lithuanian. They cook delicious. The dishes are large. The waiters are courteous. Not everyone knows, but they are always ready to help solve the problem. There is no special parking, but I think you can find a place nearby. One of the disadvantages is the bustle, a lot of visitors, because the room is large, there is a second tier and an enclosed terrace. The prices are quite affordable. With a bottle of wine and beer, it cost 5-6 thousand Russian rubles for four people.
To get acquainted with the cuisine of the Republic of Belarus, to eat pancakes and other dishes cooked very tasty and obviously from fresh products, the place is ideal. The waiters are polite and attentive. The place left a very positive impression! I can safely recommend it for those who are new to Belarus and want to get acquainted with the local cuisine.
A very nice and delicious place!
The food is at the highest level🍽️
The knuckle is divine, big, satisfying, I recommend it to everyone. Also, the national dish is draniki with a sponge🤌🏼👍🏼
The pleasant beautiful interior, the music immerses in the atmosphere, the staff is friendly.
The place is popular, on the evening of the weekend I had to wait a little in line.
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.
A good cafe chain in Minsk. Reasonable prices, cozy interior, cleanliness and order. Excellent service. Fast, organized. Dishes of national cuisine - pancakes, dumplings, dumplings, a lot of meat dishes. In four days in Minsk, we had lunch twice in two different Cornflowers. I liked both of them. Let's come back again!
Chain cafes. Polite and unobtrusive waiters, everything is cooked quickly, the flavor is felt. We ate draniki, dumplings, and kholodnik. Lemonades were also appreciated. Nothing fancy, simple and delicious food. There's always a queue at the entrance, but it's worth it. The child asked to write a review and give 5 stars) and the children know a lot! Thank you and prosperity to you!
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
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.
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 :)
A wonderful chain of restaurants, everything is fresh and delicious. There is always a place, a beautiful different interior inside and a cozy veranda. The staff is very attentive, fast service. Everything is delicious from croutons with cheese , horseradish to fish cutlets .
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!
