Tour overview
Lviv’s coffee-house traditions started during the Austrian time and the obsession continues today. It is not simply a drink you consume for energy on your way to work. Whenever possible, the drink is consumed slowly in a cozy café or at a table outside. Savoring it allows us time to rest or have a tête-a-tête conversation with a friend, while enjoying a pastry, of course.
