One of the most popular beer restaurants in Moscow. The interior features the masterful combination of German heaviness, good quality, spaciousness and home-like cosiness. Meals are relatively inexpensive, delicious and very big. The waitresses are usually very pretty and wear ridiculous but sexy “traditional” German costumes which aren’t quite low-cut but still revealing enough to be distracting. The basement level setting is spacious and the bar area is a phantastic place to sit and there is an extra private hall for functions. Schwarzvald has 12 different Czech and German beers on tap and a few more come in bottled version. The average beer costs about £3. The only complaint is that there is no budget beer on offer for the cash-strapped.

The pre-eminent beer restaurant in Moscow, Tinkoff produces Russia’s most famous micro-brewed beer. On top of their seven regular beers (£2.5) they also produce a special beer for each season (£3.5). Tinkoff distinguishes itself from most other Russian breweries by adhering to the 1516 beer purity law from Germany which ensures quality in the selection of ingredients and in the brewing process itself. The result is a fuller, tastier and healthier beer than you will find elsewhere. This spacious and stylish Spartan restaurant also serves up a fresh menu each season. Tinkoff’s business lunches are an unbelievable deal with a £5 price tag buying three courses: a starter, a soup and a main course with garnish. Your choice of tea, mineral water or a 0.33L beer is thrown in for good measure. The rest of the day an average main course costs around £10 but the meals are filling and quite tasty. Tinkoff also hosts some good bands on a regular basis and their Live Beer Festival which runs every year around the same time as Oktoberfest is always great fun.

Descending the stairs you fall into the indescribable beauty of the basement of the old mansion with three halls: beer, Old Russian and VIP. If your heart demands beer and German delicacies – you are welcome to the beer hall. Soup out of Weiseburg sausages with a cheese rissole, Burgundy sirloin, classical rollmops out of soft herring, pork shin, crayfish in beer… If the main course is not so easy to choose then things are very simple with beer: “Siberian Crown” (“Sibirskaya Korona”), 'Spaten', 'Krusovice', 'Hoegaarden', 'Guinness', 'Heineken', 'Lowenbrau' - you may choose according to your taste and mood. Probably you’d like to try favourite dishes of the Russian imperial court? Plain “Country borsch” with a pampushka (kind of fritter), ravioli with mushrooms, burned and not burned pancakes, stroganoff veal and other dainties will be especially tasty here, under the age-old arched vaults. As for the European part of the menu, it is performed by the French cuisine. There are dishes made from fowl, venison, roe and hog.

Wide selection of German beers in an atmospheric setting. Prices are about average for these places but are written in currency units at a warped exchange rate which might be slightly annoying. Huge, juicy sausages, sauerkraut, German brews and a fully acceptable unfiltered house beer.
