The Best Pastry Shops of Moscow

The pastry shop at Cafe Pushkin opened its doors back in 2006. The dessert menu provides its visitors an opportunity to choose the best extraordinary cakes, biscuits, sherbets, and candies decorated with berries and gold leaves, which are the real masterpieces. This is a very famous place among tourists and locals as well, however, the prices are expensive. All the desserts are prepared only with premium quality products delivered to the shop directly from France. This is one of the best places for a warm family tea ritual, a romantic date, and meetings with friends.

One of the most interesting creations of Novikov, in the capital of Russia, Tchaikovsky Cafe is a local institution for so-called “cultural food” right near the building of the Moscow State Academic Philharmonic Hall, near the Tchaikovsky Concert Hall.

Here they specialize in fruit tarts with buttery crusts, honey cakes, dark brown croissants with cream and jam centers, and pain au chocolate with crisp. While you’re here, pick up a loaf of Russian bread and put jam on it, it’s a delicious treat!
