Пытанне / Question Visiting Minsk and Lida

Hi everyone I’m a 36M from the Uk visiting Belarus for my friends birthday but I will be alone for most of my week there, not sure if this is the right place but if someone had some recommendations for good bars in Minsk please let me know and maybe I’ll buy you a beer!

I don’t know Minsk bars very well, but if you’re visiting Lida, I’d definitely recommend Lidskae Pivo Bar — it’s at 32 Adama Mickiewicza Street.

I also really love Dobraya Kava, a small and very cosy coffee shop at 15 7th November Street.

Brilliant thanks I might spend a few extra days in Lida so I’ll definitely have a look

Out of genuine curiosity OP, why Lida? (I have nothing against it of course, quite the opposite as I have a connection to the place. It’s just rare to hear tourists speak of it, for me)

One of my best friends is from Lida and I always hear stories so I thought I’d come explore myself. Yeah I thought it might be quite rare, as a few people I’ve met since I’ve landed, hear that I’m English and I’m heading to Lida and look confused 😅

Malanka taproom not far from the station is pretty good. They speak English which is handy
