A very good cafe. I emphasize: not a restaurant. The food is delicious, they cook for an average waiting time of 20-30 minutes. The waiters are attentive. I liked the food and drinks. There were no positions, but this did not overshadow the impression. From the wishes: when you order a set of snacks, you should bring plates for each visitor. We took a set and of course, as husband and wife, we can safely pick at a common plate, but it's worth providing plates for the company where everyone can put themselves a dranik or cabbage from the set. I also note that I saw a couple come to the cafe with a "claim to the restaurant", behaved defiantly and threw snobbish questions at the waiter. It was strange to see such baseless pathos in the CAFE. This is not a restaurant. It's delicious, cool, but it's a cafe. Be prepared that you will not be told what fattening pork is))

It's a wonderful place! The prices are average, maybe slightly higher than in other restaurants (taking into account the location on the territory of the fortress and the pleasant design of the place itself), but it did not hurt to enjoy the local food.
The food is delicious and of high quality, despite the fact that it is prepared relatively quickly. There are both first and second courses. An impressive selection of drinks: from simple to interesting.
The waiters are polite and friendly. The administrator is watching in the hall.
The atmosphere is pleasant. I liked it very much. One of the many reasons to return to the Brest fortress. I definitely recommend going in

In general, the kitchen is not bad, the atmosphere is wonderful, everything is clean and cozy. Without leaving the Brest fortress, you can take a break for lunch. But the truth is that the prices are appropriate, not to say that they are very high, but still it is impossible to call a budget snack here for sure.

A fairly simple walk-through place, clean to rest and eat, the choice of food on the menu is very modest, but the food is really delicious, the service is sincere. Special thanks to the guys for the Wi-Fi and for the sense of humor))

We visited when we were walking around the fortress. In fact, the only place where you can have a good meal. On Wednesday afternoon, we were the only ones that were a plus for us. We ordered borscht. They brought it quickly, it seemed that it was sour. But it's still delicious. Croutons are perfect for borscht. The staff is friendly, the interior is fortress-themed. The only thing for me is that the price tag is too high for the main dishes. But it's understandable, there are no competitors nearby 😊

We found the "Citadel" on the map, decided to stop by for lunch, as we walked around museums and fortresses all day, and there was a long road ahead of us. The menu is quite extensive, we chose local cuisine - pancakes and pork pancakes. To be honest, we did not expect that there would be such large portions) And the coolest thing was very tasty! Unfortunately, I overcame only 3 draniki out of 6, But we kindly agreed to put the remaining 3 draniki with us, put them in a bag and an additional one. in a paper bag. The order was delivered quite quickly by the way!

Thank you for feeding me quickly and inexpensively. But it was very stuffy and hot. There is no air conditioning. And half of the dishes on the menu are missing. What was available was delicious. I wouldn't go to this cafe on purpose. But considering its location and the fact that there is nowhere else to eat near the fortress, except to buy ice cream, I recommend it. There are nuggets, pancakes, and potatoes on the menu. T e children will definitely be fed

Brest Fortress is the main attraction of Brest, the memories of our grandfathers and great-grandfathers are still fresh. And if you open a restaurant, then you need to open it with respect to us, to visitors who care about history.
We came to the restaurant and were horrified. There are few tables, but we were lucky to get a table. Let there be dirty dishes on the table, but nothing, they sat down. The waiter is alone, you can understand. Then the menu was brought, very meager, I must say. You can't choose soup for a child. We started to choose, but the noise at the neighboring tables and the closed windows made it so incredibly stuffy that my head immediately ached. Other customers came up to the waiter, said they were waiting for half an hour to make an order? Is it okay? A small number of tables, stuffiness, service and its absence. While the banquet hall is large and there is no one there. We got up and left. If you are organizing a similar restaurant in such an iconic place, please do not compare people with pigs. Provide conditions for which it will not be a pity to pay even twice!

A great cafe. They cook quickly. The menu is small, but there is everything you need: soups, main dishes, salads. The price tag, on average in the city, is normal. I would call this place a high-quality dining room. I recommend.

A good cafe, tasty and inexpensive, homemade food, borscht with croutons, steak with potatoes and egg, kvass, mors, I liked everything. Strangely enough, there were few people, although it was a day off and the only cafe on the territory of the fortress.

Good cafe, delicious food, fast service. It's nice to sit there after a long walk. The only disadvantage is that there is no air conditioning (((, if it's a hot day it will be stuffy.

A very well-located cafe, in a secluded place. It's good that there is a place to have a snack after diving into the history of the Motherland. The service is fast. The food is delicious.

We were generally satisfied with everything. A pleasant waiter, Vladimir, took it quickly, brought it quickly. The first dishes were brought immediately, they were ready, apparently they didn't even have to be warmed up. The hot ones were given away after 10 minutes. The refrigerator is good, the hodgepodge is acceptable, I recommend pancakes with pork roast.
There was nothing interesting about the drinks, there was no kvass, there was only a choice of juices. Well, such a thing.
The price is even a little cheaper than in the city center, but it does not reach the restaurant level either.

I put one star only for the location. The historical area is impressive.
But this place leaves much to be desired... the food is very bad. What is indicated in the bruschetta menu is not so. A piece of butter and a teaspoon of caviar on bread?
I'm not talking about the menu taped up at all.
I believe that since this cafe is located in a historical area, you need to match and work on yourself. I hope that next time I come, everything will be better.

A very cozy cafe, located on the territory of the Brest fortress. It's the only one, so where to go for lunch was chosen unanimously. The variety of dishes on the menu is small, but everything is cooked very tasty. The portions are very large, but the price is too high in my opinion. The girls are very friendly. Many thanks to the kitchen for a delicious lunch

A wonderful cafe where you can have a snack and take a break from watching the iconic place - Brest Hero Fortress. Unfortunately, there was no draft beer on the day of our visit.

There is no worse place to find, we came to the fortress for the whole day, we thought we would eat. At first, they waited a very long time for the table to be cleared, well, okay, the kid is running, trying.... Then there are problems with the menu - this is not there, and this is not there, and this is the problem... What is included in the hodgepodge? But I do not know. Is it possible without olives? No, we're not cooking. As a result, we ordered 2e solyagki and 2e portions of pancakes. It has been 20 minutes since we entered. After 15 minutes, they brought 1 solyagka without bread. I ate a little, I didn't eat in the morning, we waited another 15 minutes, canceled the order, paid for 1 hodgepodge and left. That took about 40 minutes and we went to eat shawarma at the railway station, where we were served like in the best restaurant

It's a very atmospheric place. There is something to see and something to read. There are very interesting excursions. I consider it a must-see place. It doesn't light up at night, so there's not much to catch, come in the afternoon. (The backlight works only on holidays)

We didn't eat at this place, we were scared off by the nuggets on the menu and the prices of 15+ rubles for this. There is a feeling that only organized groups are fed on the territory of the fortress, because it is simply impossible to get into one institution from the street, and in the Citadel there is a horse price tag for what.
The menu is crumpled, the bar card is a crumpled copier. Guys, it's not 2007 anymore!
I recommend eating outside the fortress. Alas, so far there is only spiritual food!

The food and beer are delicious, the service is fast, the staff is polite. The prices are not very high. There are not enough air conditioners. It's better to come by 13 o'clock, later people start to fart. I recommend.

If you want to be served, be active, demand a menu, follow the waiters to place an order. Or sit in the stuffy air for an hour just waiting for attention to be paid to you.
There was almost nothing to eat, because a banquet was being prepared in the next room. Why bother with other guests and other dishes.
Complete lack of alternatives, lack of competitors and group dinners allow the institution to spit on small customers.
Two points only for the fact that all three varieties of Lidskoe draft beer were available + excellent kvass.

I went in for a snack after reading the reviews about the place...
To put it mildly, the kitchen, unlike the quick service, was not impressed (or maybe I was unlucky, because it was Monday ...) neither its sophistication nor its variety.

A terrible place to maintain
We came, took out the menu, didn't say anything, started making an order and it turned out that the fryer was broken and it was impossible to order everything we wanted, namely pancakes, a dinner set, etc., of course we were upset that they didn't tell us right away and I said so, after which we sat for 15 minutes and no one came up to us. We never tasted the food, we left.

Of the advantages, only the location. Not only is this the only "restaurant" in the Brest fortress, but it is located in a preserved building from the Great Patriotic War.
The kitchen is very mediocre, in fact - an ordinary canteen and cafe with pre-cooked and heated food.

It's very hot in summer! There is no air conditioning - the guests were all wet, half of the dishes from the menu were missing, the kitchen was not fast at all. We visited this place only because there are simply no others. The overall impression is 3 points.

At least once, but be sure to visit. The story is priceless. I recommend not to focus only on the citadel, but to study the map and go around all the forts, there are a lot of interesting things there

I didn't like the food, we took borscht and solyanka. Borscht, as in the dining room, warmed up and tasteless. Solyanka is more or less. The service is not very good at all. They waited a long time for the table to be cleaned, and food was spilled under the table, no one cleaned it. There were a lot of people on the holiday weekend, the staff did not have time for anything. We wanted to order a steak, the wait is 50 minutes, sea buckthorn tea is also a long wait. We ate some warmed-up soup and left upset.

If you ask me, will I go to this cafe again? Unequivocal-no!!! Only he was found near the Brest Fortress.We went there with the whole family, as everyone really wanted to eat. There are only 2 menus for the whole hall. They don't bring it to you, you have to go to the counter for it😕 we waited 5 minutes for the menu. After choosing the dishes, no one came to us again. To make an order, again, you need to go to the bar. The employees of the hall can stand and talk to each other, completely ignoring the customers. We received the dishes (I was glad that even though we didn't have to go to the kitchen for them ourselves, they were brought to the table😂). We ordered borscht and pork in Brest with potatoes. The borscht was tasteless, and the pork - it was just bathed in mayonnaise. There was more mayonnaise than pork. Of course, we ate it all from hunger, but the aftertaste was not pleasant. Terrible cafe, but I still put 2 stars. And they are addressed to the toilet, so it was very clean and modern. As a result, if you are going to the Brest fortress, it is better to take food with you and have a quiet lunch sitting on a bench. Personally, we will do so!

Here I put a three, because we came on May 10 and in general, except for the last day's barbecue, there was nothing at all, that is, from the word at all. Cafe owners need to worry about the availability of a normal menu and dishes.
