Póems

«Póems» is located at 1 Kolokolnaya Street, near Dostoevskaya metro station, with windows overlooking the Vladimir Cathedral. The kitchen here combines European, Italian, and original signature dishes, and for many guests the day begins right here, with breakfast at this café. Behind the project is Denis Rubin, producer and curator of the «Fontanka-69» space. His approach is felt in the interior: the brick walls are left deliberately rough, and the plainness of the room is balanced by a long bar counter — the center of the room and a focal point for guests. On the menu, it's worth paying attention to Venetian cicchetti — small snacks on bread, traditionally served in the bars of Venice. They're accompanied by chupitos — small servings of alcoholic cocktails and infusions, served in characteristic shot glasses. The average check at «Póems» stays around 700 rubles, which makes both breakfasts and evening get-togethers with cicchetti affordable without much deliberation.
