Lviv is a city with a special vibe, and in May… When the aromas of coffee mix with the scents of flowers on the terraces and the signature liqueurs from the Drunken Cherry, it’s a special buzz. The center is buzzing with conversations and street musicians playing hits, so you simply have no right to sit in your room. So, before and after a busy conf, you need to have a plan – where to hang out, what to eat, and where to have sweet dreams. Catch the best options we found especially for you:

🍽 Where to eat: top restaurants in Lviv
Baczewski Restaurant
The true spirit of Lviv is Baczewski. Breakfast with champagne and live piano, an atmospheric courtyard and a Pinterest-like presentation. Ideal for a morning meeting with colleagues or a loved one.
Grand Cafe Leopolis
We can’t help but mention this place in the town hall itself! Here, even the coffee has a special vibe and aftertaste… It’s like you’re resting your soul in a space with these high ceilings, a delicate dessert and a feeling that everything is happening slower than usual.
Well, this restic is said to be a favorite among the townspeople. Hmm… You should check out the Atlas Restaurant. Atlas is not just a place, but a whole mood. Here you can catch the atmosphere of “living in Europe, writing a novel, waiting for a glass of wine”. The interior looks like a Wes Anderson movie, but with a Lviv soul: a bit of theater, bohemia, and definitely “leave me here longer.”
Kryivka
Want adventure? Go to Kryivka. The password at the entrance, the interior like in a bunker, the waiters on a roll and toasts “Glory to Ukraine!” – the atmosphere is driving, the cuisine is Ukrainian and delicious, like mom’s.
Mons Pius
Mons Pius is a restaurant in the bank building. It’s cozy and everything is as it should be: the meat is juicy, and the beer is fragrant and Lviv. An ideal place if you want to feel a little bit like a knight and a gourmet.
Tante Sophie
This is a piece of France in the heart of Lviv. The atmosphere is as if you are visiting your aunt in France, who knows a lot about wine, cooks frogs’ legs and snails well, and always has a story for long evenings. Here you want to savor wine and life, forget about the rush.
Ribs under the Arsenal
A classic of the genre! It was here in 2016 that the era of eating ribs with your hands, open fire and long lines for the taste that has become iconic began. The atmosphere is like in a medieval fortress, but instead of swords, there are grills, and happy people with fat fingers and sincere smiles.
And finally…The most expensive restaurant in Galicia
This is not just a restaurant, but a whole shocking performance. You don’t come here by chance, but “penetrate” through a secret entrance on Rynok Square, get an apron and white gloves, and immerse yourself in the atmosphere of Lviv’s Masonic theater. The prices on the menu bite, but it’s part of the game – with a secret “Loyalty Card” you can feel chosen and dine at a completely different price. In general, if you are looking for not only food, but a story with irony, mysticism over a good glass of wine.
🎶 Where to go besides this
Kurgan & Agregat (May 23)
And the next night, where can you go without the presentation of Kurgan & Agregat’s new album?! That is, if you want to dance, laugh and blow the hall away with “Village Drac”. And they always have an interesting show, not just a performance. Lviv, Ukrainian hip-hop, and 100% of the profits going to the Armed Forces of Ukraine – it’s exactly what you need to relax after serious insights from the confab.
🏛 What to see: non-standard locations in Lviv
Lvivarnya
Beer, history and tasting together? This is to Lvivarnya. A beer museum – it sounds like fan Instagram content is already guaranteed.
The legendary Masoch establishment (cafe, hotel and shop)
The lustful side of Lviv with a twist. Ropes, chains, leather and a special charm. There are hints in the menu, frankness in the interior, and freedom to be yourself (or someone else 😉) in the atmosphere. This is a place where people come not only for a cocktail, but for interesting sensations. Both dishes and decor are sexy here.
🛍 Souvenirs: what to bring with you
Vernissage
Look for gifts for colleagues and relatives in the Vernissage. However, it’s up to you to choose which one:
- Vernissage Lviv Mall in the very center with an observation deck
- Vernissage steady market in the center, where you can buy embroidered shirts, souvenirs, interesting handmade with a soul.
Even more must-haves with you
- Nalewki from “Drunken Cherry” – an ideal souvenir and congratulations “with a degree” from Lviv.
- Coffee – Lviv coffee has a separate vibe. Buy a couple of packs in coffee shops like “World of Coffee” or “Lviv Coffee Mine”, it’s also very beautiful in the evening.
- Chocolate from the Chocolate Workshop – looks like a work of art, tastes like a masterpiece. Perfect to enjoy on the road or as a gift.
And finally
Don’t evaluate Lviv as just a city where you came to a conference. It’s a place where you can switch gears, recharge, and enjoy a little fairy tale. Don’t miss the opportunity to explore Lviv for real!
