Great place to try traditional Bulgarian food from Rodopi region. The place offers very delicious meals, soups and desserts. The atmosphere is amazing even if I'm not a big fan of hunting trophies. Great hospitality! When you enter, you will receive warm and friendly welcome, which is very topical for Bulgarian restaurants in the small cities. For me personally small disappointment was the size of the meals, nevertheless it was enough. Would recommend!

I am truly delighted!
It was one of my best experiences in the Rhodopes! Traditional cuisine, a warm welcome and lots of smiles. A nice aunt welcomed us and told us what was fresh. It fed us pretty well for a pretty decent price.

Excellent restaurant. Food was great, as close to home cooking as it gets. The beef ribs were outstanding.

It's a place where you're going to experience the traditional bulgarian dishes and atmosphere. The home-made dishes were perfect.
If you're not bulgarian speaker it might be hard for you to order but you'll not be sorry for whatever you end up eating. Keep in mind that the lady is really carrying bulgarian woman. She's really sweet. I liked her.

Very good place to be, if you like to experience the extraordinary taste of the local cuisine. Everything seems to be home made and fresh. The food is so delicious you can't get enough.

I highly recommend this restaurant!

Everything was perfect. One of the best places to have traditional food in Bulgaria! So delicious ....

Delicious, fresh food with meat and cheese from local farms. Quick and friendly service

Great atmosphere, warm welcome and tips on the menu from staff. Food is amazing and tastes like homemade.

The food and ambience is superior! Super high quality home made food offerings! The best home made wine I’ve tried in a long time! Strongly recommended!

Delicious meals and very friendly (and chatty :D ) owners. Try the ayran with homemade goat yoghurt.

A hidden paradise. The meat is local, the ingredients too. They even offer home made bread. The food has apparently been blessed by some godly diety, because I couldn't stop myself from the moment the first bite reached my mouth. The staff is just lovely and really show pride in their work. 10/10 would come again.
P.S. The cake is home made as well.

Good tasty food felt like homemade and lady there was very nice. Interior decoration made the place look cozy.

Great service, kind staff, delicious local homemade food!

We came across this restaurant while searching for a place to have lunch in Batak and could not have been more happy! We were greeted with a kind smile and felt very comfortable since the beginning. We had the chips, rodopi salad, bean soup, chicken kavarma and lemonade. Everything was delicious and freshly cooked. Definitely a place to visit again!

The food is very delicious - everything is home made. Definitely try the “patatnik”, the salads, their sourdough bread and the lemonade :)
The owners are very warm and polite.

Came here with guests from different countries...the food, atmosphere, and everything in between is great, can't believe who would leave a bad review for this place below, they do not know what good for taste like nor they know the Bulgarian hospitality. Amazing sausages, potatoes, soup - everything is fresh and tasty. Thanks, we will visit again!

The lady is really nice. The food is delicious, especially the beans! Definitely will visit again when in the region. Very nice place!

Very nice place with tables next to the river, delicious and beautifully served cuisines. Quick delivery, I recommend it.

Very good local food and an amazing and lovely waitress. We didn't had to wait long until we got what we ordered and the food was very delicious. But keep in mind that the menu is only in Bulgarian at least what I know.

If i say this was the best place ive been since alot of time, wont be enough 11/10!!
Highly, highly recommend!!
