Hermtiage Cafe

Description:

• This cafe is surprisingly small for the size of the museum, given that any visitor doing the museum justice will need a rest and a food stop at some point during the day. Once you get a seat (which can be a long wait), you'll see that the light, Art Nouveau hall is a pleasant place in which to eat. The cuisine is essentially Russian fast food, with limp mini-pizzas, roast chicken, and tasty little sandwiches. The Internet cafe across the hall offers hot drinks, sandwiches, and desserts, as well as dozens of terminals set up with links to museums of the world (along with regular Internet access).
