During the 2 days spent in Minsk, we had breakfast and lunch exclusively in the cafes of this chain. Well, they are very cool: the traditional setting and the traditional menu, everything is thought out to the smallest detail. From 8 am to 11 am, there is only breakfast on the menu, the choice is small, but each dish is very large and satisfying. The main menu is very, very diverse: a lot of salads, snacks, several variations of pancakes, soups and a large assortment of hot dishes. The portions are very large, the prices are average. There are always a lot of people, at any time. In the morning, the wait for breakfast starts from 30 minutes, but the staff always warns about it, in the evening you can spend 15 minutes waiting for the table. There is no table reservation, free seating. The staff is all young, but very, very attentive, polite and fast. The only problem with all establishments in Minsk, including cafes, restaurants, shopping centers, are small toilets (1 stall in a restaurant or cafe, 3 stalls in a shopping center), which is very, very small for establishments with high traffic.
The most gorgeous cafe. We have not found an alternative in Minsk. I was very pleased that there is a children's menu. And a business lunch on weekdays from 12 to 16. You can eat quite budget. It is always crowded, as this institution is in demand, but you can find a place. There is an underground floor and a covered gazebo on the street. Our favorite is Kiev-style cutlets and different boards with sausages, cabbage soup in a pot, pancakes. I really liked the blackberry-strawberry tincture. Thank you very much for the warm welcome!!! You are super!
A very positive restaurant on 89 Nezavisimosti Ave. with national Belarusian cuisine pleased us with excellent fast and courteous service. The menu has a good selection, the interior is decorated in a national style, polite and helpful waiters. Thank you, we are very satisfied, I advise everyone to visit the Cornflowers.
A well-known chain restaurant of Belarusian cuisine. Satisfying, tasty, inexpensive, entourage, clean. You can have children and a mother-in-law, you can have a woman, but best of all with friends and without a car. There's everything for that. Sour cabbage soup with mushrooms and dumplings with cabbage is generally a fire! The shingles of course)
To be in Minsk and not go to the Cornflowers is not considered to have lived.
I can't say anything bad about the place. The location is good, close to the metro and Chelyuskintsev Park, Botanical Garden.
The order is delivered quickly enough, there is a lunch menu. I like the colorful interior. I love the place near the windows, there is on the avenue, there is on Tolbukhin.
You can have a hearty meal. There used to be potted pancakes (they were my favorites).
The advantages are the national food, very tasty and varied. The cooking time is within 15-20 minutes. with an almost full hall. The staff is polite and helpful. The atmosphere in the cafe is cozy, in the traditions of the Republic of Belarus.
I visited the cafe on the recommendation, I did not regret it👍
Awesome!we are delighted to visit your "cornflowers"!delicious, homemade, everything is freshly cooked, the portions are large.We ate at your place 3 times and remained well-fed and satisfied each time.the waiters are great, friendly, neat and attentive!Thank you very much, we will recommend you to our friends!
Conveniently located, right on Independence Avenue. Without any problems, our large company was placed at the table. We accepted the order quickly and with detailed explanations. The menu is quite diverse, but it has more of a national flavor, so fans of local cuisine are definitely here. The serving is fast, the food is delicious. The music and design are without complaints. The price is absolutely democratic. I recommend visiting the guests of the Belarusian capital)
Wonderful interior. Friendly staff. Delicious pancakes, a wonderful breakfast. A rich selection of tinctures and Belarusian beer. I liked the "Strawberry with rhubarb" sangria. And the waiters can tell a poem for the guests from the Belarusian classics
Very tasty food! We were in Minsk for 3 days: we had breakfast, lunch and dinner here. Delicious, democratic, large portions, the hall is colorfully decorated, I liked everything, the most important thing is that the food here is national.
A great place with national cuisine.
Large space, polite waiters.
It so happened that I had lunch here on my birthday and did not regret it!
A good assortment of menus, the food is very tasty, bravo to the chefs!
The prices are average.
Will I come here again when visiting Minsk - yes, do I recommend this place - definitely yes!
A great place, beautiful, delicious and very atmospheric! The most delicious shingles in Vaselki! I recommend this place to tourists!!! Every time I come to Minsk, I definitely visit Vaselki.
It is amazingly colorful and delicious. What you need for a tourist: local cuisine. Cabbage soup with chanterelles and pancakes with goulash are the love of a lifetime. Special thanks to the waiters and the administrator, who found a warm place for our family of 8 people to fully board in the hall.
One of the few places of catering where the kitchen and service are on top from the very beginning of the activity. Delicious, fast (for a restaurant), stylish and sincere. The prices are adequate. There is a business lunch on the days of the week. I recommend.
The food is delicious, the prices are pleasant, it is very atmospheric inside and it is interesting for tourists to learn a lot of new things in Belarusian cuisine. There was a little long service, and full boarding even during the day, but I still liked everything
Cafe with national cuisine. There is free parking nearby. Convenient location. The staff is very friendly. The kitchen is impeccable. But I put 4 because the restrooms just need repairs. But I still recommend it!
The food is fresh, without frills, delicious. The cuisine is Russian (Belarusian, Ukrainian) - the whole range from vegetables to lamb is present, the menu is wide and not expensive. The staff is well trained and works more at speed.
Great cafe. They serve quickly, cook tasty and in a variety of ways. The portions are large. Drinks wow!!!! I really liked it. I was in Minsk for two days, but we went to Cornflowers for lunch and dinner!!!
Cornflowers are a place where you can have breakfast, lunch and dinner, everything is delicious!! There are always a lot of people, but the waiting time is 10-15 minutes for the main dishes
We came in the summer of 2023 and in the spring of 2024 and immediately to Cornflowers! Even the girls served us the same, it was nice to see familiar faces))
Отдыхали в Минске. Выбрали этот ресторан, чтобы отведать национальную кухню. Народу очень много, но место нашлось. Ну что сказать😜. Не в восторге🙃. Встретили нас в ресторане не очень приветливо. (Но в Белоруссии и не принято быть вежливыми (такие уж выводы)....'спасибо/пожалуйста" здесь редко говорят, а вот нахамить-это всегда пожалуйста🤣). Ожидание 1час, 20 мин. (Но официант предупредил нас сразу, за это спасибо). Мы остались,т.к.были с детьми и очень голодные и уже не было сил искать другое заведение. Еда нормальная, что-то даже очень вкусно. А вот драники не впечатлили. Во-первых, по времени....такое ощущение, что повар ходит за картошкой в поле, выкапывает её и приходит в ресторан готовить эти самые драники🤣. Ну как можно полтора часа готовить драники???😱🙃. В общем, мало того, что долго , так ещё и драники не особо драники....так, картофельные оладьи, в которых 90%муки.
Звезду официанту⭐. Хороший парень👍
The food in the restaurant is delicious. Excellent cabbage soup with wild mushrooms, amazing pancakes for every taste and delicious lemonades! In general, I advise you to come in and get acquainted with the Belarusian cuisine in person!
Just a great network of cafes of national cuisine! Everything is at the highest level! Each dish is a masterpiece of Belarusian cuisine. The cafe chain is very popular among residents. You can often even see a queue in a cafe.
A very cozy place! There are two floors, as well as there are separate rooms in which you can stay with your company and no one will interfere. The interior is made beautifully and comfortably. The food is delicious, they always try to cook quickly and tasty to serve a hot dish! And the price tag is nice for such large portions.
Also, lunches are very convenient and cheap.
There is a small minus, this is one men's room...but still 5.
Thank you.
Very tasty pancakes, just for the sake of them it is worth visiting the restaurant. Pancakes with mushrooms are incredible. But absolutely everything that we have tried is delicious. The waiters are great, the service is excellent. Even with a full landing, they try to bring everything quickly. The only question for the kitchen is, waiting for hot for an hour or even more, in the evening, with incomplete planting, leaves an unpleasant aftertaste.
I was pleased with the atmosphere of home comfort, both the surrounding decor and the kitchen. The service was even better than in some top-class restaurants, the waiters were very attentive and responsive. I recommend visiting both residents of the country and guests
A wonderful restaurant. Fast service, delicious dishes, friendly and courteous waiters. After the visit, only pleasant impressions remained.
ps. The music in the hall is playing, although not very loud, but you could make it a little quieter ;)
A wonderful restaurant of Belarusian cuisine, everything is very tasty, beautiful, entourage, friendly staff, excellent service! I have great breakfasts! I recommend it!!!
A very atmospheric, cozy cafe. With national Belarusian cuisine. The tastiest pancakes. The most polite and fast waiters. I definitely recommend this restaurant to visit.
If you want to try the national flavor, this is just the place: food, style, serving, service and friendliness of the staff, even the choice of background music))))! I often come to Minsk and always visit them, I am glad that for many years he has not lost his position in my eyes).
I often visit Cornflowers, but I have never taken a salad. I tried it and was pleasantly surprised by its taste, I really liked the salad with Adyghe cheese and dried tomatoes. The service in this establishment was good, which is very pleasant. The place was very noisy due to the number of children, but this is normal in the city center in good weather in a family place.
An atmospheric place with dishes of national cuisine, when visiting Minsk we very often visit this institution. In the photo below, pancakes with baked goods, pumpkin soup from the seasonal menu, cabbage soup with wild mushrooms.And the photo from the menu is relevant for the month of October.All the dishes are delicious.We also order takeaway or delivery of draniki with meat, there are no complaints, everything is very tasty. Sometimes there are queues at the entrance to the institution due to the number of guests. But the administrator quickly tries to help with the seating of the guests.
A cozy place next to a beautiful street
The service is good, they gave the children rice bowls, it was very convenient
The food was brought quickly
I liked the quality of the food
In general, a normal family cafe
Красивый ресторанчик на проспекте Независимости... Можно отобедать в здании и на улице. Не самообслуживание. Официантки радушные. Обслуживают быстро. Чисто и аккуратно вокруг, белорусский колорит. Блюдо я заказала немного неудачное - картошку с грибами. Картошка водянистая (старая, размороженая, видимо), грибы -"резиновые", яичница вкусная. 😊 Надо было драники заказывать. Зато какой в "Васильках" фирменный вкусный квас! Второе и квас - 17 р. (см. фото).
overall, a pleasant place. there are a lot of people, but we were lucky to have a place for four. we had a delicious meal, courteous and courteous staff. my nephew was even given pencils to draw while they were waiting for their order.
A cozy restaurant, smiling staff, delicious Belarusian cuisine. Cleanliness and order. Nice music. The prices, of course, are not low. The average check per person is 50-70 rubles. I recommend you to visit.
We visit different places every time we get to Minsk. It's always good, mostly national dishes, not expensive, it's a subjective question. They also serve in different ways, once they just left because they offered draniki after 40 minutes. It is not clear why the chain does not go further than Minsk, and in Minsk there are restaurants at every step.
In general, the task corresponds to the style of Cornflowers, nothing supernatural, the Belarusian food is delicious, the staff is friendly.
Of the minuses:
- they do not carry orders promptly (the waiting time for alcoholic beverages was 30 minutes, moreover, it was not a day off and not an evening time).
- there is absolutely nothing to breathe on the lower floor, the ventilation system is not thought out.
A great place - atmospheric, with excellent cuisine, the staff is polite and efficient.
Yes, there are queues at the entrance.
But it's definitely worth it.
Deserved five stars out of five.
A must-visit!
I love this place, although the narrow aisles are confusing, but inside there is a real atmosphere of home comfort and warmth, despite the fact that the hall is large and there are not a few people. I really like the drinks, I haven't tried a lot of food, but I know that everything is cooked in the best Belarusian traditions, when all the best is for the guests. I also really like the service. Thanks!
Wonderful traditional cuisine. Relatively fast serving, less than 20 minutes for a hot dish. Attentive staff. A homely atmosphere.
I really liked it. I recommend.
Good Belarusian cuisine. Everything is delicious! Not expensive. I recommend it from the bottom of my heart! The only drawback is pickles. Chinese honey mushrooms, wild cherry, cucumbers from chain stores. But the overall atmosphere is wonderful! I recommend.
Excellent national cuisine. Delicious, atmospheric, good service. Huge queues forced us to drive from the center to the MKAD to get there. It was the fourth cafe in a row where there was a minimum queue. Judging by the conversations at the neighboring tables, all the Muscovites were here. It was January 4, 2024.
Great place 👍
They ate and drank so much that they barely left
Everything is very tasty
If you take tinctures, it is better not to take a board, since the tinctures "horseradish" and "grandfather's treat" are very much for an amateur (bitter, spicy ), it is better to take a small bottle with one taste
Everything is great, the waiter is a darling. 🤗
An interesting place. But May 11 left a lot of butts.
At 3 p.m., a queue formed to enter. And after standing for half an hour as the second in this queue, we escorted the first ones first into the hall, and then out of the hall. They left with the words that they would be preparing their order for more than an hour. We were surprised, but went to the gym. And the employee who came up told us the same thing. We were surprised, but we made an order. Our order was ready in 25 minutes. Delicious soup-solyanka, delicious grandmother, and half-dried croutons. Delicious local beer. In general, this place left a double impression. It seems like delicious food, but a strange attitude towards customers. Apparently, because of the popularity, the kitchen is not coping. In general, well done, but it can be better.
Мою любимые Васiлькi. Люблю кухню, атмосферу. Очень приятно видеть, как много туристов приходит и им точно нравиться то, что они кушают. Появляется гордость за свою национальную кухню. Очень впечатляет что много и белорусов. Кухня вкуснейшая, такая домашняя , мне всегда после посещения ресторана тепло и уютно на душе. Как раньше было, когда приезжала к бабушке в деревню.
Great chain restaurant! Fast, tasty, high quality. Alcohol is also pleasant, the price tag is not low, but nevertheless democratic.
I am glad that no matter what institution you eat, cornflowers keep the quality - you always know what to expect.
For me personally, this is one of the iconic places in Belarus, no trip here will do without going to Cornflowers. :))
Гостили с семьей в Минске 4 дня. Лучшего места не нашли. Меню обширное и аппетитное, подача быстрая и яркая. Посещение данного заведения-это замечательная возможность совместить национальную кухню и отличное обслуживание. Цены приемлемые. Помимо всего прочего, 3 раза были на завтраке-вкусно, питательно, полезно. Однозначно рекомендую к посещению всей семьей!
Everything was great, good service, the waiter did everything that I love in the service. The dishes were stunningly huge and delicious, but the pancakes were 50% potato. It was like pancakes with a pinch of potatoes
Great place, delicious food, fast service. Very pleasant atmosphere and interior. National music is playing. There are a lot of people, you may have to wait for a place
Delicious food, very cool waiters, beautiful and soulful interior. They cook quickly. The prices are acceptable. I recommend this one, it is a little further from the center and there is no queue on the street))
