This cafe is nestled in a quiet neighborhood, offering lovely views and a cozy ambiance. Weekday mornings can be quite busy, while weekends are typically quieter and make it easier to find a table. An English menu is available upon request, and food ordering and payment are handled at the counter. The food quality and portions are excellent, and their coffee is equally impressive—both are well worth the price. I’ve returned twice for the delicious food and coffee, and each visit has been thoroughly enjoyable.
An amazing place for breakfast! We went here two days in a row. A wide range of dishes and drinks. Postcrossing postcards are on sale: my friend and I bought from the bottom of our hearts! The view from the window is fantastic. It's always crowded here, and that's understandable.
The cafe is atmospheric, modern and cozy..Good coffee, delicious pastries...Delicious and fresh food, you can have breakfast, lunch and dinner in a relaxed atmosphere..To sit with friends..
In my opinion, an overrated place. The staff is 5/5, the kitchen is 2.5/5, coffee is 2.5/5. Prices are at the level of similar caffeine, but you need to order at the bar and pick up drinks too, although the waiter brings the food, the logic is not entirely clear, although perhaps some sacred meaning is hidden in this or the financial model requires this. On weekends, there are a lot of people in the morning, there is a hum inside, for these reasons it resembles Apa Katya.
Delicious, beautiful and atmospheric! We were in Almaty a couple of times, and both times we were here) The impressions are only positive) If ever the road of life leads us back to this wonderful city, we will definitely visit Vanilla again!
A good cafe. We had breakfast there. The menu is optimal. They cook quickly. The music is not loud- and this is also pleasing. The toilets are clean
. The prices are average.
There are hearty breakfasts here. Decent portions. Lots of pastries and coffee. High attendance. The waitresses are trying their best. In principle, the staff is polite.
A cozy coffee shop, but you need to come early for breakfast on the weekend, there is always no place, it will wait both for meetings with friends and for family trips

A pleasant atmosphere, delicious and varied confectionery, buns and cakes, hearty and delicious breakfasts, a cozy modern interior, a very popular place, there are always a lot of regular visitors.
I like being here.
Oh! It's a great place. Stylish interior, delicious food, friendly staff. There are many places, but everything is occupied, because the cafe is very popular with both tourists and locals. You can buy postcards at the cafe.
My favorite coffee shop. Inexpensive coffee. It's very tasty. There are a lot of people. If you're lucky, there will be an empty seat. People are always interesting and beautiful. The local elite. Not in terms of the amount of money, but in terms of interest, intelligence is possible. Although there are others. In general, a bright coffee shop. Baristas are funny. One even seems to be rear-wheel drive or just mannered. But it does not affect the quality of coffee.
Excellent Americano, coffee filter, Sochi, pancakes and homemade biscuits from the central office. Italian Ciabata bread is generally top class! I buy it every day or every other day. A good place in the morning, opens at 7.30. But places can be busy especially during the day. Tsk that will have to wait.
It is already, one might say, a legendary place.
Wide panoramic windows create a very cool view, both inside and outside.
There are almost always a lot of people.
Breakfasts and pastries are branded quality.
Of the minuses, the places are often occupied and narrowly, but few people are confused by this :).
This is the most favorite place of many! Almost always full ! The pastries are first-class! Everything is fresh! Breakfasts and porridges are also beautifully decorated and look appetizing! I recommend
I'm an avid coffee drinker who drinks 4-5 espressos a day, but all these newfangled things: filters, coffee with flavors, with sourness, well, it's not my thing.
Such a visit! Do not stop reading, in fact, I will "get to Vanilla".
I prefer espresso from the same "old as me" carob coffee machine and stuck to the Julius coffee brand, at the very least, Illy.
But Vanilla did not fascinate me at all with coffee, although in it (the cafeteria) the choice, varieties, methods of roasting and cooking is huge!
I also love sweets-desserts, and prima delicacies, Anna Pavlova cake.
I visited this place three times a year, and only for the third time I tasted something that many do not notice: if you enter and go all the way to the right, there will be a "common table", this is a kind of community of people reading, this is a special aura that instantly relaxes, adds you to yourself, and you have no desire to leave just sit quietly and enjoy the girl reading Erich Remarque, surrounded by pencils and colored markers. She emphasizes something in the book, makes links to an open diary, is completely immersed in the process.
The young man on my right with his arm in a sling, from a conversation with a nice waitress, it is clear that he is a regular, and she empathizes with his injury and wants to part ways so that the young man is even more comfortable.
This aura, mutual understanding, penetration into each other, cannot be planted, artificially created, it grows and blooms by itself. simply, the place and the friendly staff favor these shoots.
And how much girlish attractiveness there is! Beauty on beauty, grace on grace!
If you have read Jean Michel Genassie's Club of Incorrigible Optimists, this is exactly the Almaty place, transferred from the novel from the 50s and 60s of Paris, to no less metropolitan Almaty. Emigrants, September christians do not accidentally find people close in spirit, thoughts, coffee. And conversations are started, and people familiar from social networks meet and communicate!
And everything is Fine!
I buy coffee beans here. It is very convenient that the barista can grind coffee beans according to your request (filter, drip bag, coffee maker, etc.)
A very cozy place, but perhaps the main disadvantage is the number of people. 2/5 times I definitely didn't find a table where I could eat and drink coffee.
The food menu is generally affordable when compared with coffee shops. Nothing special, but delicious. I took different breakfasts, most of all I like American breakfast and shakshuka.
The biggest plus I think is baking. The guys are trying to keep everything fresh, and the traffic is great.
Average check 3-5k
My wife's niece dragged us there. We had breakfast. The atmosphere of the place is pleasant, the food is delicious, and the desserts were especially pleased. It's a little expensive to have breakfast every day.
Cozy location, good prices, beautiful interior. I took shakshuka and assam for breakfast. The order is placed at the bar, drinks are served there, and food is taken out to the table in the hall.
Shakshuka seemed a little thin, but that's my preference. The staff is nice, the toilets are clean and the cafe opens early. I will come back here with pleasure.
It's a very good place, I liked the style of the interior, as well as the atmosphere of this place. I like to drink coffee most of all, and it's just amazing here
Hello, Dear visitors.
I ordered a Napoleon cake
One name corresponds to
They began to eat , it fell apart
And the cleaner ran up with a huge rag, began to SWEEP us THOROUGHLY
WE RAN AWAY
I do NOT recommend, except tea and water, nothing
)))))))
Definitely the best place in the city: affordable prices, good service, clean and cozy interior. At first, I visited many places in Almaty, but stopped there.
10/10
A pleasant place, quite cozy.
The cheese shakshuka is just a dump of the head (i.e. great!) A large selection of drinks. The staff is friendly and courteous.
I recommend it!
This place served us as a wonderful place for breakfast, everything is very tasty and large portions, good service. For three to have breakfast, drink coffee and eat a pie 10000 tenge
A very good pilot. There are always a lot of people, you need to come earlier. A very pleasant discussion. There is a lot to grow in the speed of service. An atmospheric place
Very tasty. The kitchen perfectly fulfills both the breakfast menu and evening positions. Everything is delicious, fast. Pastries and teas are generally top.
Very tasty pastries! The menu is also delicious. Friendly staff.
But there are a lot of visitors. It can be difficult to find a place. Or it is not possible at all)
I run here on the way in the morning for pastries.
A great place to meet friends or soulmates, the atmosphere is just super, as if you were in Europe. The coffee is excellent, the desserts are all just a brain drain, the only thing that bothers in this institution is freelancers who buy coffee and drink it for hours, at this time people come and alas they have nowhere to sit because of these guys. My advice to the admin is to chase them around the neck, you miss a lot of visitors because of them.
I love this point, and the kids love this place, especially in the evening after school (2nd shift)everyone is going to tea or the percussion is delicious, Vanilla is one of the best in the golden quadrant
