About Allcafe
Allcafe is a restaurant guide. We help you find the right place for any occasion, cuisine or neighbourhood: we build a directory of restaurants, cafes and bars, calculate ratings based on real guest reviews, and write honest reviews.
We don't sell rankings. Allcafe's restaurant critic Boris visits venues incognito and pays for everything himself — that's been our approach from day one. We verify venue details against primary sources and keep them up to date, and every editorial piece is signed by a real author.
Why we do this
We believe a great evening starts with choosing the right place. Behind every dinner is a meeting, a conversation, a moment worth remembering. Our goal is for everyone who opens Allcafe to find not just "somewhere to eat," but their place — for a first date or an anniversary, breakfast with a kid or a night out with friends.
That's why we've spent more than twenty years doing one thing: building the most honest restaurant guide in the country. We don't sell spots in the rankings, we don't inflate scores, and we don't hide flaws behind nice words. We go ourselves, taste for ourselves, listen to our guests — and tell it like it is. Russia's restaurant scene is vast and talented, and we want the world to know it: from the great dining rooms of Moscow and Saint Petersburg to the small bakery around your corner.
