    Beautiful garden, good choice to sit outside in the summer. Food is above average, despite servings being a bit small for its price. Some of the waiter staff are nice and friendly while others are not. Fast service, even when place has gotten busy. Nice interior, too. Nearby parking.

    Massive, delicious portion for the equivalent of about €12. The outdoor garden is lovely as well.

    Very nice restaurant close to the Archeology museum. They have an extensive menu. The food is good and the service is quick. They don't have much vegetarian option if you don't want salad. We had the cheese pot and it was very tasty. They do desserts but the pancakes were a bit rubbery. The rose wine was really good. Go into the restaurant and see all the items adorning the roof and walls. It's quite amazing. I haven't been in a restaurant in Plovdiv where the toilets are so amazingly designed and so clean.

    Amazing local experience. Very cheap, well served, and tasty food. The menu has several options of local dishes. The bathroom is a must-visit, looks like a mini museum. They also have vegetarian and even a few vegan options.

    Food is fine, some different stuff like duck hearts. Service could be better. I tried to make the waitress smile and failed. Come for a beer in a nice shaded area next to the water mill on a hot day.

    Really delicious food at great prices. Service was not amazing, but ok. Pets were also welcome outside.

    It was kind of mediocre. Don't have enough speaker and they raised the volume on the one on top of our table. Just so the other part of the restaurant can listen to a decent volume of music our table had to yell to hear each other.

    Please clean the yard! All full of dist, dirt and rubbish when passing by. Food is too expensive for this surrounding dirt. Is it too hard to perform cleaning? Diseases may occur

    Nice food, all fresh and good. Amazing traditional decoration. We had some communication problems, pointing to the menu helped, although we couldn't get any recommendation for tipical or best dishes. I recommend this place.

  • 5/5 Tomasz J. 2 years ago on Google
    Delicious food fairly priced and the place itself give you the vibes of the “XIX Century” :) A must go if you’re in Plovdiv.

  • 4/5 Kostadin A. 1 year ago on Google
    Good local restaurant with traditional Bulgarian meals on good prices! It’s old wood style inside but it’s needed some renovation I think. The lunch menu is also with traditional meals and it’s good option. Overall it’s nice place

  • 1/5 Christie E. 1 year ago on Google
    If you want to eat not fresh food it is the place... Everything is without taste : Tarafor, industrial fried cornflakes cheese and chicken with mushrooms ( the worst thing I had never ate). Shame!

  • 5/5 Sandra L. 6 months ago on Google
    Ivan, the waiter, was very nice and kind. Food was ok and the place is very warming. I would recommend it. Nice and friendly.

  • 4/5 Slagyana R. 2 years ago on Google
    The decor is rustic and interesting to look at. The food is the same you would get in any average traditional restaurant. The place was drafty because they keep the door to the patio smoking area open.

  • 5/5 geneva m. 1 year ago on Google
    Food and the presentation of the place was awesome. Big portions of salad and food were served.

  • 5/5 IL L. 2 years ago on Google

  • 5/5 Jonathan K. 4 years ago on Google
    Really enjoyed the Shopska salad. The garlic and dill potatoes could use more garlic, but overall they were great as well. Really a very peaceful spot at the corner of 2 very busy streets. Loved the little water wheel. The Zagorska IPA was really nice as an accompaniment to lunch as well. Recommended for a visit for sure.

  • 5/5 Clinten P. 3 years ago on Google
    Just across the road from Hotel Ego. A broad choice of snacks, salads, meals & drinks. Freshly prepared to order. We ate here a few times and were extremely pleased with the service, quality of the food and the excellent value for money! The staff is very nice and polite. Nice atmosphere and garden.

  • 3/5 Petar P. 3 years ago on Google
    Nice garden. Tasty meals but in lunchtime should prepare more in numbers because finishing too fast.

  • 1/5 Delcho V. 3 years ago on Google
    (Translated by Google) We ordered food for you from home and the shock is great !!! There is no lower than one star, unfortunately .... The Easter salad, which supposedly has radishes and is flavored with lemon and olives, also had no croutons for mouse mash and spinach surprise, I have no words, the most disgusting thing we have ever tried. I wouldn't give it to my dog! I hope you are aware that your kitchen is UNDER ANY CRITICISM !!! I HIGHLY NOT RECOMMEND PS: another time you put the "food" in a box, at least close it (Original) Поръчахме от вас храна за вкъщи и потреса е голям!!! Няма по ниско от една звезда за жалост.... Великденската салата в която уж има репички и е овкусена с лимон и маслини една на брой също нямаше и крутони за миш маша и спаначения сюрприз нямам думи най- отвратителното нещо което сме опитвали дори и на кучето си не бих го дал! Надявам се да сте наясно че кухнята ви е ПОД ВСЯКАКВА КРИТИКА!!! СИЛНО НЕ ПРЕПОРЪЧВАМ ПС: друг път като слагате "храната" в кутия поне я затваряйте

    (Translated by Google) Today we were there ... under any criticism. Chicken livers were disgusting, even the cat under the table does not eat them ... not to mention the blonde waitress, who serves as if the whole world and is guilty. (Original) Днес бяхме там...под всякаква критика.Пилешкиъе дробчета бях отвратителни,дори котката под масата не ги яде...да не говорим за русата сервитьорка, която сервиране сякаш целия свят и е крив.

  • 1/5 Bili S. 3 years ago on Google
    (Translated by Google) I do not recommend it to anyone. The waitresses look at you with disgust because their seat is interrupted, and they themselves are disgusting. He rounded up his account by 70 cents without me wanting to leave a tip (Original) Не го препоръчвам на никого. Сервитьорките те гледат с отвращение, защото им се прекъсва седянката, а и самите те са отвратителни. Сметката си я закръгли със 70 ст. без аз да съм предявил желание да оставя бакшиш

    One of my favorite places in Plovdiv, a haven in the midst of the city! Wonderful all year round with their garden and interior dining rooms done in traditional Bulgarian style. Ivan the waiter is great: professional, efficient & speaks English. I highly recommend 19th Century!

  • 2/5 sean b. 1 month ago on Google • 1 review New
    Food was really really good. My serving was massive and good for the price. The service was terrible though. The waiter seemed annoyed with our existence there, and when paying they did not bring back any of our change, which meant a 15% tip. Good food but go elsewhere for Bulgarian food if you want to feel welcome and not be ripped off.
