From Citysearch

In Short
Antique tables, tin ceiling, velveteen couch and mismatched chairs suggest a rosy-walled cafe in Kiev, circa 1930. A rush hour crowd gulps bottomless cups of java, espresso drinks and chai tea, while others sip Turkish coffees and indulge in European-style tea service. The menu includes daily changing pastries, plus bagels, ham and cheese croissants, deli sandwiches, gourmet salads and soups.
