Now, after Georgia and Northern Cyprus, Ukraine or Turkish citizens will be able to travel without a passport. With the paving of passport-free travel to Ukraine, which has not asked for a visa from Turkish citizens for a while, a Turk will be able to go to any Ukrainian city with only his identity card, as if he were going to Antalya.. This will make Ukraine a little more attractive among the visa-free countries. Here is Lviv, which should be at the top of this list of Places to visit in Ukraine.. Especially we Turks. To see this more clearly, it is enough to sit in one of the Lviv cafes and restaurants and count the people who speak Turkish.

What is this Lviv, everyone is leaving, when I find cheap tickets (THY’s) from 365 TL) I pasted the ticket and went. Although Turks prefer this city especially for Lviv nightlife, I think this is a city misunderstood by Turks.. In my Current Information About Lviv and Lviv Travel Guide I explained in detail why I think so.. Even how I got around this city spending $100 in 6 days.. Anyway, back to our topic. Lviv is a very rich city in terms of food and beverage. Although vodka is the first thing that comes to mind when Ukraine is mentioned, Lviv is famous for its chocolate and coffee.. You can go here even just to visit Lviv cafes and coffee shops.

About Lviv Cafe and Coffee Culture

I generally take care to travel with very low budgets.. Therefore, I may not have the chance to explore many places to eat and drink outside.. However, when the prices in Lviv were quite affordable compared to Turkey, I changed some of my rules here.. This is the most expensive city in Ukraine due to the intense interest of tourists.. However, the price of a coffee on the street is usually 15 hryvnia (2TL). Depending on the type and size of coffee you buy, it can go up to 35 hryvnia (4.7 TL). By the way, we found the cheapest one at the kiosk right next to the Opera House for 10 hryvnia (1,34 TL). By the way, this 10 grivna coffee is not mud. It’s not Nescafe.. You know, americano coffee.

There is no Starbucks in the city (at least I didn’t come across it in 6 days), but there are local coffee shops and coffee kiosks in the city every step of the way.. You can also drink quality coffee in most Lviv cafes and coffee shops.. The price of coffee in a cafe in the city usually starts from 25 hryvnia (3.35 TL) and I paid 50 hryvnia (6.7 TL) for the most expensive one.. I’ll tell you when it’s time. I paid there for the show, not the coffee.. I said take it, pilgrim make the money anyway :)))

The Best Lviv Cafes and Coffee Shops

I think Lviv cafe concepts are at a level that can set an example for many cities. Every cafe or restaurant in the city tries to differentiate through a beautiful concept.. Most of these venues are owned by a company called Kumpel Grup.. Where we see a nice concept, a little Kumpel logo when we look to the side. I even looked if Kumpel had a beautiful daughter so that I could be the groom, but she didn’t exist.. These works are of course destiny Also, an important part of the places are located in Rynok Square and its surroundings.. So you can go to all of them by walking.

In this article, you can find the names of the cafes, as well as the Ukrainian names with googlemaps links.

Lviv Coffee Mining Manufacturer

The first address that comes to mind when you try coffee in the city is Lviv Coffee Mining Manufacturer (Мануфактура кави). If I say this is the Kuru Kahveci Mehmet Efendisi of the city, it would not be a wrong analogy.. The arrival of coffee in the city also dates back to the Ottomans.. A Ukrainian captured in the Battle of Hotin learns about coffee from the Ottomans and brings it to Ukraine.

This is actually a coffee chain, but my advice to you is to go to the one in Rynok Square, because this place is different from the others.. They sell you coffee beans on the ground floor. A side room gift shop. Next to it is a cafe. There is also an outdoor area where there can be live music in the evenings.. All this aside, there is also the ground floor of the place, which is the main event.. Downstairs is a mine. They give you a hard hat when you enter here.

It’s like a museum inside a coffee shop.. Their coffee is good, usually at the level of 25-35 hryvnia. However, my suggestion to you is to buy the special coffee of this place and watch the fire show in the presentation.. The barista prepares this coffee with a special fire show.. This coffee is only served on the mine floor. This coffee costs 50 grivna. It’s not over-the-top taste, but I think it’s a reasonable price to watch that show.

Blackwood Coffee & Burger

If you ask where did you have the best coffee in the city? One of the two addresses I will tell you is Blackwood Coffee. Here, too, coffee prices are at 25-35 hryvnia. A very small and cute cafe. Her specialty is coffee and burgers.

Strudel Haus (Штрудель Хаус)

This was one of my favorite breakfast places in the city.. One omelet and one coffee in the morning was a total of 59 griva (7,9 TL). This is one of the venues belonging to the Kumpel Group.. Small but very nice place. Especially the apple and vanilla strudel is very famous.. Strudel with a coffee in the morning was also 59 hryvnia. Their coffee is also very good.

Street Coffee Shop in Rynok Square

A mobile coffee shop opens in the morning in front of the Ratusha Tower in the city’s most famous square.. This coffee shop has prepared one of the two best coffees I’ve had in the city.. Prices also start from 15 hryvnia. A large latte costs 30-odd hryvnia. If you like coffee, I’d say you should definitely try it.

Lviv Handmade Chocolate Factory

One of the must-visit places before you go to the city Lviv Handmade Chocalate (Львівська майстерня шоколад). Just as Coffee Mining Manufacturer comes to mind when you think of coffee, this place comes to mind when you think of chocolate.. The distance between the two is either 100 meters on foot or not.. You see chocolate being made on the ground floor of a 5-6-floor building.. 2. and 3. There is a chocolate store on the ground floor.. The upper floors serve as cafes.

You can make Karatay angry by throwing almonds in white and milk hot chocolate on the top floor.. You only need to pay 50 grivna for this. On the terrace floor of the place, you can enjoy your chocolate by watching a panoramic view of the city.. We looked at it because it was too windy and then we ate our chocolates downstairs.

Lviv Mapa Cafe (Мапа)

By chance, we don’t come across this cafe that we usually see about the city. We were very pleased to enter.. It is a pleasant and nice cafe that is generally preferred by Ukrainian students rather than tourists.. Their coffee is good and their tea is not bad. Of course it’s not a smuggled tea. By the way, tea comes in a jug you know.. Coffee is also 25 grivna, and apple strudel served with ice cream is 49 grivna (6.6 TL).

Dim Legend (House of Legends) ( Дім легенд)

Lviv cafes and restaurants know no bounds when it comes to different concepts. One of these cafes is Dim Legend. Even the front of the building makes me wonder where I came from.. Each floor has different concepts. On the roof of the building, a lucky chimney sweep and a winged car await you.. Another interesting aspect of this cafe is that all the waiters are dwarfs.

Gas Lamp Cafe (гасова лампа)

Gasova Lampa (Gas Lamp Cafe), a cafe dedicated to the inventor of the kerosene lamp. You see a lot of gas lamps inside. You can think of it as a cafe during the day and a restaurant in the evening.. Even in front of the venue, tourists are queuing to be photographed.. This is one of the most interesting concept cafes in the city.

Svit Kavy Coffee (Світ Кави)

There is a very modern cafe in Rynok Square right next to the Beer Museum. The coffee shop is waiting for you. This is more our 3. reminiscent of generation coffee makers. Prices start from 25 hryvnia.

Mazosh Café (Masochist Café-Мазох кафе)

German-born author, known as the father of masochism, Leopold von Sacher-Masoc was born and raised in Lviv. That’s why they set up a cafe with a masochistic concept dedicated to him.. Here you know they beat and whip you. It’s an interesting concept but I didn’t go because it didn’t attract me that much.. Should I get beaten up with my money bro :)))

Krivka ( Криївка)

Maybe it would be a clue about the concept of the place if I said that you need to find it before you can enter. It is one of the top cafes to be seen in Lviv.. It is on the ground floor of a building in Rynok Square, but there is not even a sign at the entrance of the place.. You click on the door and someone asks you for a password. Password: Slavia Ukraine. When you say this, a soldier greets you with a gun.. He gives you a shot, you have to drink it and go inside. I didn’t try it because I don’t drink alcohol, but inside is an interesting concept about the war days.

Left Bank Restaurant (Лівий берег)

Left Bank Restaurant or any other We discovered the Opera Underground Restaurant with the recommendation of an older brother from Galatasaray High School, who has been a guide in Ukraine for a long time.. You have to enter next to the opera house, go downstairs and find this cafe there.. I say cafe, but it can be a different alternative for both eating and drinking.. This was actually a place under the Opera House where the artists ate and drank after their performances.. Everyone can use now. If you can find. :))

Other Lviv Cafes and Coffee Shops

I don’t like to write about every place I went, so you should definitely go too. It is useful to write with the good and the bad.. That’s why, I’ll write you here what I said would be okay whether you go or not, or what I tend to go but can’t spare time for.

Lviv Croissant

Morning croissant break If you want to have something to drink and drink my coffee with you, there is a chain called Croissant in Lviv in many parts of the city.. It has little to do with croissants in France, other than appearance.. The coffees are normal and the prices are reasonable.

Centaur Cafe

This is a place I went to after the eulogy I read on the internet last morning and I was not very satisfied.. A little expensive place that sells an omelette 2 steps away for 59 grivna along with coffee for 90 grivna. It was also funny that they bought extra cheese for the omelette.

Glory Cafe

This is the choice of those who cannot separate from Turkish breakfast.. The owner of the place is Turkish. It used to be Gloria Jeans Cafe, I think the name deal is over and they changed the name to Glory Cafe. Even scrambled eggs are made in the place.. Frankly, the Turkish experience in Ukraine did not surround us, so we did not go.. The prices were also a bit more expensive than the city’s prices.. We are also liars of those who left.

Rocket Espresso

This was our last Lviv cafe stop. We had our last coffee in town at Rocket Espresso next to Ivan Fronko University. Prices are reasonable, coffee is normal but service was the slowest we’ve seen in town. Generally preferred by university students.. Since we were going to the airport by bus passing in front of the university, we decided to spend our last hryvnia with coffee in this cafe.

Posthane Museum (ПОШТА НА ДРУКАРСЬКІЙ)

Posthouse Museum (Post Office Museum) office on Drukarska street) is one of those cafes that we pass by all the time and never have time to spare.. This is both a museum and a cafe restaurant.. A very large collection of stamps is also exhibited inside the venue.
