A good department store, a wide range: I bought stationery and cosmetics - I was satisfied, I also like the choice of Mattioli women's bags in the haberdashery section!
I ate many times in the canteen on the 4th floor, the food is delicious, but I didn't like the soups.. The canteen is closed on Sunday, and on Saturday it happens that they give yesterday's food, so it's better to come here for lunch on weekdays.
By the way, food prices, if you eat every day, are not super cheap, on average: mini salads 2-4 r, soups about 4p, meat 7-8, vegetables 3-5p, casserole 4.7r, side dishes 1-3p, desserts and pastries 1-5 r.
With regard to the interior: in comparison with the GUM of five years ago, the changes are already significant. The first floor has been renovated and now it looks very decent - like in a modern shopping center. It is planned to renovate all floors and improve the range of women's clothing by 2026. Still, to finalize it from the outside - and there will be a candy)
We got into GUM purely by accident, at first we were attracted by the sign of the dining room, we went in and did not regret it, everything was very tasty and satisfying, I liked it.
We ran through the floors, had to go in to buy gloves, left our own at home, came here to visit.
The assortment is decent, the prices are overpriced, and I really didn't like that on some harmless question from the series, is there someone at the checkout, the seller Ivanova V. barked at us. Such behavior does not suit the sales consultant of the main store of the country, a very unpleasant aftertaste remained from her rudeness, dissatisfied face and unworthy manners of behavior towards customers 🙄
We visit this store every time we arrive in Minsk. Yes, of course you can go to shopping malls, and find something cheaper somewhere. But here I like that you can buy everything in one place. And locally produced.
Excellent tablecloths with moisture impregnation. Towels in the kitchen, every time you want to buy something.
This time I bought bed linen, let's see.
We buy T-shirts, socks, and underpants for children.
Unfortunately, I was in the women's department only once and then I was not impressed by the models, but I hope next time I will be able to walk around and see.
Dishes from local factories.
This time we bought a beautiful leather bag with a discount, also made in Belarus.
About the staff. There are very friendly people who will help, tell you, advise you something. And there are those who are sullen, tired, and dissatisfied... In general, as everywhere else. But this does not spoil the attractiveness of that place for me personally.
And each time it is decorated differently.
There are photo zones between the first and second floors.
The oldest department store in Minsk with its unique surroundings. The range of products is wide, they try to match the spirit of the times. This is not the Moscow GUM, there is no Prada and Louis Vuitton, but there is a choice for its target audience.
They constantly hold promotions and make good discounts.
Located in the city center, near the metro and bus. There is no parking
Guests of the capital should definitely visit here 👍 There are a lot of products from Belarusian manufacturers 😊
This is how the Main Department Store of the state should look like.: not a vanity fair, but an industrial goods store. I really liked the range of products, prices, good staff, general atmosphere and interior. A large number of Belarusian-made goods.
Separately, I would like to highlight the wonderful buffet with its snacks, cakes and mulled wine.
I wish there were more bathrooms!
A very nice, modern store. A large selection of high-quality Belarusian goods! Very often, big discounts are made in Gum, at this time it is very profitable to purchase a large purchase! On the ground floor there is a cafe with delicious cakes. Everything is inexpensive! I recommend visiting Gum! You will be satisfied! I'm giving you a well-deserved high score!
A legendary store in a very beautiful historical building, gorgeous installations in the windows every year, excellent prices for Belarusian cosmetics, for example, there are really profitable promotions. A decent store, despite the fact that it is old, is refreshed and changed every year, so it looks decent.
A good store, several floors with different sections, I really liked the huge department on the 1st floor with cosmetics, perfumes and hair and body products, a huge assortment. There is a department of socks, clothing, a huge department of fabrics and bed linen. A good store.
A state-owned store with various Belarusian goods, a lot of bags for a good price, eyes are running away, pleasant consultants. There are also a lot of cosmetics in different price ranges. A good textile department. I didn't like the floors with clothes very much, it looks more like a market
A great place to buy something from cosmetics, clothes, underwear of Belarusian production. You can also buy home textiles and fabrics. The choice and prices are pleasant, there are discounts.
There is a children's department with clothes and shoes.
It is worth noting the presence of an exchange office in the building 👍
Excellent department of Belarusian cosmetics to the left of the entrance. And in general, there are many beautiful Belarusian-made goods in the beautiful interiors of the magnificent Stalinist building. A very cozy cafe to the right of the entrance with a free toilet.
There are cosmetics of any brands here this time. The second is discounts of up to 30% several times a week (no other store has this). There are any clothes, including underwear for any size, including milavica (discounts are also available every week) Third, you can save a lot of money if you buy as a tourist, as there are similar brands of cosmetics in other stores, but more expensive. Yes, it's a Soviet building, but it's so high-quality, so pleasant that it's a pleasure to be there. Quiet , calm , there are no crowds like in our Moscow store where people only come to stare , because the prices are beyond the reach of an ordinary person ! According to reviews, it feels like it's written by gourmets who are waiting for something sky-high. On the contrary, nostalgia will return to the USSR. The store is gorgeous .
A store in the center of Minsk. I was interested in the local assortment. My relatives living in Minsk advised me to go there. It is convenient that on one floor you can view and purchase goods from various local companies, both for men and women. Near the entrance to the cafe, where we were treated to delicious Kobrin ice cream. It is considered a brand of Belarus. One thing is, there is nowhere to park the car, we managed to do it on Mezhdunarodnaya Street, it's far enough away.
This is the most central store in Minsk. It is located in the city center. Assortment: cosmetics (mainly Belarusian brands, very good, by the way), bags, accessories, clothes and even food. The prices are affordable. The quality is good.
You won't leave without shopping.
It has always been a good store! And when there was a Central One, and now! It's even better now! Although there is a quick snack at the McDuck nearby (sometimes I run there), but this store has excellent cooking! Delicious and reasonable prices! I advise you!!!
After the renovation, it was transformed and became more modern.There are many products for every taste and purse.Sellers will always prompt and help with the choice.
The cafeteria has delicious coffee and a selection of cakes on the ground floor.
Good staff, a very large selection of goods, there are different Belarusian and also imports , discounts and promotions are available , the location is in the city center, there are also 2 elevators, now you can easily climb in a stroller with a child. I also want to note that now there is more choice in the grocery department, you can safely come and take everything you need, there are basic products and even more. There is also a beautiful cafe on the 1st floor, you can order dessert, take a cup of hot drink and admire the city center
Удачное расположение .Очень интересно украшены отделы к Новому году. Большой выбор товара. Огромным плюсом было использование новогодних предсказаний в отделах трикотажа и обуви по улице Ленина. Спасибо за поднятие настроения. Вернусь еще не один раз.
The building of the Stalinist era is very pretentious and resembles Moscow shops. A beautiful staircase - on each floor there is a sale of goods only from Belarusian manufacturers and this is great! There is also a souvenir department with Belarusian goods - the prices are acceptable. It's nice to shop here.
I like it from the point of view of Soviet architecture.
Sometimes I buy something here: it is convenient that there is a large selection of local manufacturers in one place at once.
There is also a dining room and a cafe where you can have a snack or have a cup of coffee/tea.
An excellent building designed in the style of Stalinist classicism. Inside there is a grand staircase leading to the upper floors. There are Soviet symbols and lamps on the walls. The range of products is excellent. You can also buy Belarusian goods, such as linen, Luch watches, and other countries)) the prices are adequate.
A large, beautiful shopping mall. The variety of the product range is impressive. There are storage rooms on the floors. You can leave not only bags, but also outerwear. Attentive and polite sellers.
There are a lot of different and interesting clothes. There are Belarusian production and imports. A good cosmetics and zoo goods store. There is a small grocery store and a small cafe
I come to Minsk for the third time, I always visit GUM. It is striking in its scope, a whole floor for Men, another floor for Women, tableware and textiles on another floor. The choice is huge and diverse, for any age.
The staff is polite🌺💐🪻
The Stalin-style building is quite luxurious. The range of products is normal. There is a schoolboy fair, but the assortment is not great. The sellers are polite, ready to show and tell everything, if the thing did not fit, they exchange it without incident
I love Gum for its atmosphere, for the constant liveliness within its walls. For the fact that you can find everything for every taste and purse there. It is also an architectural exhibit! It is very pleasant to be there, to walk up the huge stairs. Love!
I've known GUM since childhood and I've always liked it, it's already like a relic, probably everyone who lives or just comes to stay, or on business in the capital, has visited the Main Department Store at least once, this name has been preserved since the Soviet era, and for those who live nearby this is a frequent visit store, it's great that we have preserved its original appearance, and there are also excellent staff here, polite and friendly 👍
The department store presents Belarusian products, including cosmetics, household chemicals, clothing, shoes, which can be found in any other stores in the city. But there is still some atmosphere of the Soviet era in GUM
A large selection of linen and cotton products, I always find a lot of interesting things in this store.
A good store, on the third floor there is a large selection of household goods, we bought good bed linen, a pillow and a blanket. Kartul Tamara will consult on all issues and choose what you need!I recommend an adequate and competent employee, you will not regret it
I go shopping from time to time. Rarely, but aptly) I bought myself a gift for the new Year. Once again, I was convinced that you need to take a bag of good quality. The discounts were pleasantly pleased.
Beautiful interior, warm and cozy from the cold. I meet consultants and employees who are polite and friendly.
A beautiful building, an atmospheric store with numerous goods. There are a lot of Belarus products. When we come to Minsk, we definitely visit, it is already a tradition.
Every time we visit Minsk, we go to GUM, and every time we make successful and pleasant purchases for ourselves and as a gift for friends and relatives. Taking into account the discount programs in force over the past two years, some products can be purchased at prices lower than in other stores in the city.
The GUM building is already a unique architecture at the moment. It is spacious inside, there is an elevator. There are cafes, bathrooms. Most of the goods, of course, are of Belarusian production.
The choice of goods is good, the staff does their job responsibly,
The quality of the goods is good, the prices are adequate. Although some items can be found at lower prices in other centers
Our favorite GUM likes everything, you can find everything you need , consultations and friendly sellers, although one did not remove the protection on the cover for the board and you will have to go tomorrow to take it off, no one stopped at the exit, than attached!
You can buy everything here! The choice of linen products was amazing. The size range is wide, and sellers will always prompt and help you make a choice
The building of the USSR era, of course, is no longer the same atmosphere inside, but it's still interesting. The range of products is not for every visitor, but you can shop around😬 this store is still worth a visit for its name alone🙂
A place where it is better not to go shopping or to work. The margin is frantic. Salaries for employees are paid a penny, even in agricultural shops they pay more. The terrible attitude of the administration towards both employees and customers. Think before you go shopping here, because you can save money and buy the same thing cheaper. The store does not keep up with the times, even the windows are scary, scratched. I do not recommend visiting, just spend your time and money (and extra).
A luxurious building. An island of the Soviet past. Mostly Belarusian goods are on sale. The staff is polite. We wanted to visit the canteen, but it doesn't work on Sunday. For tourists, a visit is mandatory!
I visited GUM today. I haven 't been here for over a year .I liked the sales consultant on the ground floor of Belita cosmetics named Anastasia.Small , fast , knowledgeable, a professional in her field .She answered all my questions and showed me where which creams are fast and clear .I was interested in a sun cream and pigmentation 50+ and a hand cream with a whitening effect.Loreal , the cosmetics sales consultant, also told and showed everything well , she did not remember the name .That's how to serve, girls. By April 20, I will come and buy everything I liked
We chose gifts in GUM, Belarusian cosmetics, there is just a lot of choice! And there are good Belarusian products in the grocery store, we bought good sweets, sausage, and cheese as gifts.
I was glad that this is a store for ordinary people, and not Moscow show-offs. Polite and friendly staff, ready to help. A large assortment for every taste.
I will not describe the building itself, although it is beautiful both outside and inside. You can pick up everything you need at the department store. The prices are not the same as five or seven years ago, but they are quite democratic, they cannot be compared with the Moscow GUM))) The system of discounts by day is very interesting, for those who go shopping, I advise you to look and choose the most profitable day. It will be 40 percent more profitable to collect a child for school than in the Russian Federation. And it's much easier to pick up high-quality things.
I really like this department store. Every time I visit it, I feel a sense of pride for my Belarusian brothers. There are many products of our own production (especially cosmetics), prices are not all, but lower than in Moscow.
I like to buy linen fabrics here. I buy a lot at once. The assortment is large, it only depends on the season. Very little in the spring. I love linen and the store.
A monumental building! The power of the Soviet Union is immediately felt. It is good that we have preserved the original appearance of the store. It looks modern, but with Soviet solidity. There is a dining room on the third floor, which is affordable, which cannot be said about the store itself, though...
It's worth coming here to at least see! The architecture of the building will take you back to the Soviet era. Very beautiful central staircase! The prices are acceptable, the departments are like all department stores. The placement of departments is a bit confusing, but not critical. There is a cafeteria.
Classics of Soviet trade in a modern format. A huge selection of products from manufacturers in Belarus. Given the often honest (that's how) sales are conducted, it turns out to be more profitable than in many branded stores. For tourists and shopping enthusiasts, a visit is a must!
