Bar Reviews
According to customer reviews, the bar has a good reputation. However, most guests in their reviews do not tire of repeating that the protection here is really from the 90s. This minus in service is noted by almost all visitors.
Visitors say on online forums that the institution has a very specific security. Some of the clients do not want to let in, some are rude and rude. Guests in the reviews note careless service and unskilled security at the institution.
Another part of the guests in the reviews write that they go to the club constantly.
This incendiary atmosphere of the 90s they really like. The institution has reasonable prices and delicious food. A wide range of drinks at the bar. Of the minuses indicate one - a small dance floor.
Craft station
In Moscow, on Strastnoy Boulevard, Building 4, Building 2, one of the most beloved men in the city opened. Nearby are the metro station "Pushkinskaya" and "Chekhovskaya", so getting here is not difficult.
The network of these establishments is designed for an audience that loves beer. There are more than sixty varieties here, both draft and bottle. "Kraft" bar ("Pushkinskaya") offers its guests many snacks for beer, as well as a sufficient variety of main dishes.
The institution operates from 12:00 to 24:00 on Monday, Tuesday and Sunday. But on Friday and Saturday, guests can stay in the bar until 06:00 in the morning.
The interior here is brutal and not at all girlish. There are many metal accessories, decor in the form of weapons. The paintings on the walls are made in black and white. The furniture resembles ordinary kitchen tables and chairs. In general, you will not find any tenderness and femininity in the design of the restaurant. All for men. It seems like you are entering a garage or workshop.
Guest opinion about the establishment
Regulars speak well of this place. They say that a simple and unobtrusive Irish-style interior is quite comfortable. It pleases a large number of different beers that give a try before ordering (if in doubt). Well prepared snacks (burgers, deep-fried potatoes).
Visitors note that this is not the first time they have come to the institution. Many enjoy the service and decor. In general, the place is decent and attractive. Guests will advise the place to friends and acquaintances. However, customers notice that the bar should work until the last guest, and not until a specific time (this is a small minus, which is desirable to fix).
"Last straw"
On Strastnoy Boulevard in Moscow, there is another good establishment that visitors praise in their reviews. Bar "Drop" ("Pushkinskaya") is located at Strastnoy Boulevard, building 4. The workers themselves say that the bar was originally opened for themselves. Friends and acquaintances came here who had a good time with a glass of their favorite alcohol.
Of course, many institutions can present themselves in this way. However, not everyone can boast that waiters, cleaners and bartenders have been working in the institution for more than 10 years.
In the bar "The last straw" people come to drink. An evening in good company here smoothly develops into morning. Visitors themselves say that in the institution you do not notice how time is running and alcohol is being poured.
What visitors say about the bar
Customer reviews about the institution are always different. However, most “Drop” like it. There are regular visitors who celebrate almost all holidays here. No one denies anything to himself, and the average check is 1,500 rubles per person. Prices in the establishment pleasantly surprise. When booking, guests indicate their preferences in accommodation, and they are always taken into account by staff.
However, customers do not like the terms and conditions accepted at the restaurant. On weekdays, for pre-order, you must personally come and make an advance payment at the rate of 2,000 rubles per person. Those who visited the “Drop” know that for 2,000 rubles on a weekday it is simply impossible to rest here (it will be much less). Such tough demands and distrust on the part of the administration are very distressing. The rest of the institution is just beautiful. The cafe has a lot of good alcohol and decent snacks.
"Cocktail"
In the alley on Stoleshnikova, building 11, you can drink the most unusual cocktails. The bar is open by a young and enterprising team of Andrei Kalagin. The institution is very small and with a peculiarity - there are no waiters. The bartenders behind the bar periodically fulfill their role and take food out to the hall. The menu and cocktail menu are also miniature. Bartenders can mix something personally to your liking. The menu includes traditional baked pepper and walnut muhamarra, beef tartar with horseradish and beetroot juice, fragrant Wellington salmon with mushrooms, baked gherkin with potatoes and pickled cabbage, stewed pork ribs with porcini mushrooms, pork mustard with glazed vegetables. In general, there is something to drink and eat.
In such an institution, there is close communication between bartenders and customers, so all the preferences of the guests are taken into account. A daily bar and cocktail are available at the bar.
Reviews about the institution are only good. They say that this is a little-known and unremarkable place. For a certain circle of people - yes. But those who have visited here at least once will definitely come again.
It is worth noting that the interior in the "Cocktail" is light and laid-back (according to guest reviews). Cafes and bars (Pushkinskaya) are always distinguished by their internal style. But in this institution a simple finish, but everything is very cozy. Most likely, this is due to the friendly atmosphere in the cafe, which is created by well-chosen staff.
"Mendeleev"
This is one of the best bars serving secret cocktails. It is located on Petrovka (20/1), on the ground floor. It should be noted that first you will go to a restaurant ("noodle house").
