This romantic hotspot is located within the Kornjakt Palace on Rynok ploshca (Market Square). Lvivians, visitors to the palace’s museum and random pedestrians are magnetically drawn to this open-air coffee lover’s oasis. Completely severed from the complexities of the outside world, the carved stone and shaded balconies reek of Italian Renaissance. Mellow music, delectable fragrances and stunning art and architecture make for a truly special café experience. The coffee is rich and tasty. Throughout the summer patrons beat the heat by sipping frosty beers, cool cocktails and frothy milkshakes. If it all looks familiar, you’ve probably seen this courtyard in one of the many local and foreign films that shot scenes here.
