The Magic Lantern is located on a picturesque square near the Dominican Cathedral. The establishment bears a part of ancient Lviv with a cosy atmosphere. The name derives from a legend in the middle ages. It is a Romeo and Juliet type of story with monks from the cloister leading the young lovers with a lantern underground to get married against the wishes of others. An important part of the interior is the stylized lanterns and cobble stones. It’s an outdoor cafe, but inside! The menu is in English and reasonably priced. It includes an exquisite variety of more than 50 sorts of the coffee made from original recipes, some with alcohol. For tea lovers this is heaven, nearly 100 items to choose from. There are more than 15 sorts of black tea, over 15 of green tea. Desserts include cakes, ice cream, and chocolates in abundance.

  This is our favorite cafe (near the Dominican church) with a original interior ) Huge selection of teas and coffee. A home-baked cakes are very tasty. We ordered 5 - 6 kinds of cakes (by 100-150 grams) ... Everyone was incredibly delicious!!We recommend this establishment!
