One of the newly opened pubs in Minsk, Gaststätte has three fairly spacious halls featuring all sorts of beer paraphernalia, a collection of German beer steins of the previous century and, most importantly, a wide choice of high quality draft and bottled beers. 8 taps pour aromatic beverages brewed in Germany, Belgium, the Czech Republic, most beer-conscious countries, with foamy heads just right. Beer snacks are tasty, though more sophisticated dishes (sausages and shin ;) impressed us less. On weekend nights Gaststätte gives live performance of foot-tapping Latin American songs. Prices are fair by Minsk standards, another excuse to drop in at Gaststätte while in Minsk. Also at Zaharova, 31.
