Darbas:
dishes. You also have to admire the Khrushchev-era TVs converted into speakers, which play classic tunes at humane volumes.Cabare Užeiga: Didžioji 21. Another success for the Cabare guys, simple and fun cellar café/bar with a good menu featuring local specialties. Great for a relaxing beer or a stopover on a pub crawl.
Café de Paris: Didžioji 1, in the old city. A stylish French-owned café that comes complete with the quick-footed, harried waitresses trying desperately to keep a lid on things as Café de Paris becomes more popular and crowded and fresh roses on each table. On a recent afternoon, a Miriam Makeba CD was playing for background music. They serve lovely salads, crepes and sandwiches; the food isn’t absolutely earth-shattering—but it’s probably not meant to be. This is an easy-going venue ideal for long, heartfelt talks with a friend or lover.
Choco Lux: Gedimino 12. Decorated with different chocolates. Suited for quick lunches.
Drama Theater
Gabi: Šv. Mykolo 6. If you think the wrought-iron chairs in this non-smoking café/restaurant are heavy, wait till you see their stuffed cepelinai! Country atmosphere.
Gryčia: Tilto 2. In the old city, across from Cathedral Square. Heavy-duty farm cuisine in a laid-back café done up surprisingly well for a virtual hole in the wall. Old lanterns, saddles, menus fashioned from wood and the smell of home cooking. The Cottage is perfect for a cup of coffee or a quick lunch. Lithuanian fare, including pea soup, smoked ribs and Lithuanian dumplings. Good prices.
Kavinė F: Aušros Vartų 5. In the old city. Kaviné F is attached to the National Philharmonic building, hence the F, for Filharmonija. The perfect place for a before-concert coffee and cake. Clean and spacious, if not cozy. There’s a grand piano here that sometimes sees action.
Konditerija: Odminių 3. Excellent cookies and cakes at an otherwise quite ordinary café in a side street near the Cathedral. Clean and uncomplicated, with rather oblique service.
Kukarieku: Vilniaus 21. If you can stand the sweet, doll-house decor, you’ll like the cheap salads and candies. Perfect for a coffee and danish. Another outlet is across from the fine Stikliai Hotel—which owns this good café.
Literatų Svetaine: Gedimino 1. Next to the Cathedral Square. See Dining Out for detail about this fine café/restaurant.
Magdė: J. Basanavičiaus 3. Just outside the old city, this rustic, wooden-bench café serves great garlic bread. Quirky ensembles play country to Frank Sinatra on the weekend.
