The moment you take a seat, the sound of laughter and the aroma of freshly prepared dishes envelop you, creating a perfect environment for relaxation and indulgence.
On the menu, you'll find classic Ukrainian staples that evoke nostalgia and warmth. Come hungry to savor their iconic borscht, a rich beet soup bursting with flavor and served hot, perfect for any weather. Don't miss out on vareniki – delightful dumplings stuffed with a variety of fillings that melt in your mouth. For something heartier, the отбивна (breaded cutlet) paired with crisp, golden-brown картафля (potatoes) is sure to satisfy your cravings.
Many visitors have shared their experiences, noting Svitlytsya's exceptional value and quality. Customer ivan semchuk aptly points out, “Пока это лучшее место в округе по сочетанию цена/качество/благоустроиство” – a testament to the café's commitment to delivering great taste without breaking the bank. Whether you're cycling in from Kyiv, as Сергей Бойко notes, or just enjoying a quiet morning, the fast and friendly service will ensure a memorable dining experience.
One of the highlights is Svitlytsya's cozy terrace, where you can unwind with a delicious cup of coffee, praised by Ніна as “Смачна кава!” and soak in the local ambiance. While some like Maks Fedorchuk mentioned it being a bit on the pricier side for a small town, most would agree that the quality and experience more than justify the costs.
