Cafe Sowa Coffee Shop

Certainly not your usual coffee spot. Start with the coffee – it’s the kind that makes you ask the barista twice if there's a secret ingredient because it's that good. No pretense, just pure, rich flavor that hits the spot every time. The food, especially the local dish starting with an "h" (you'll know it when you see it), is pretty much the reason I keep coming back. A bonus for my wallet too – the pricing is a pleasant surprise in a city where café bills can sneak up on you. Sure, it's not all unicorns and rainbows, sometimes the service could pick up the pace, but the family vibe and that phenomenal coffee more than make up for it. Worth a visit, and then some.

Visiting this place was like stepping into a hidden gem. The dishes were a treat, each plate a little piece of art, especially the kids' meals - too charming to eat. Prices? Very reasonable for the quality. You’ll need a bit of patience, as meals arrive one after another, but it’s worth the wait. If you’re looking for a spot to savor food without rush, this is the one.

Today’s lunch was a real test of patience. Ordered khachapuri with the promise of a 15-minute wait, but it stretched to 45 minutes. When it finally arrived, the cheese was practically non-existent, stuffed with way too much dough. Left immediately. Not what I expected. 🤨👎

Visited recently with family and had mixed feelings. The kids enjoyed the crafty master classes, but the food didn't quite hit the mark for me. It felt like it needed a bit more seasoning or a special touch. Coffee was solid, though, and the place has a cozy vibe. Owners are friendly, but the overall experience left me wanting more attention to detail in the food department. A good pit stop in the city, but there's room for improvement.

Long waits despite an empty place, and food that left much to be desired. My hachapuri was a letdown, and the khinkali were overdone. Service seemed distracted, with the waitress more preoccupied with the Wi-Fi than with us. A disappointing visit.

Food here is mind-blowing. I devoured two portions of borscht on the spot – it’s that amazing. The beet salad, adzhakhuri, and mixed vegetable salad all hit the mark. And don’t get me started on the sets; they’re incredible. I think I’ve found my new favorite spot. 🥰

Big portions can’t compensate for the uneven service. Visited with a small family group, and while the food was decent, the waitstaff seemed inattentive. The variety in the kids' menu was a plus, yet the overall vibe did not impress.

Neutral faces betrayed no warning—Cafe Sowa served us the shock of the trip. A bowl of mushroom soup, like a school cafeteria's distant cousin, barely made the cut. The Georgian salad held up, thankfully. Khinkali? Gas station vibes. But the takeaway kebab—opened on the beach—was the true heartbreak. Yesterday's leftovers or dumpster diving? Who knows. All smiles and cute decor aside, better off elsewhere if you're reading this in English.

Если вам не жалко своего времени, приходите сюда. Хачапури — долгий разговор с пустым тестом. 45 минут ожидания и одно разочарование. Даже кофе не спас посетить это место снова. 🥲

Сочный стейк, барашек с картошкой, кебаб... Даже наш малыш нашел, что поесть — редкость среди кафе. После знатного обеда я унес с собой не только сытую пузу, но и тепло. Приду еще.
