Trapeznaya restaurant is hidden inside Voznenskaya Hotel, a mere stone’s throw away from the Lavra. This buffet-styled restaurant serves hearty portions of those Russian homemade classics, so prepare yourself for salads, soups and starch galore - all served with a generous portion of meat of course! With juices, hot tea, coffee and fresh monastery bread, this kind of dining takes you back to basics. The simple food and modest price range reflects the religious nature of Sergiev Posad; this is a place where the emphasis is on monasteries, not materialism! Located less than 200 metres from the Lavra it couldn’t be any more convenient.
