    Absolutely excellent experience. Authentic kompleksny obed served in the canteen for the workers of the Chernobyl power plant. I was a big fan of the food which was excellent. Some people may be put off by the mystery meat but that's the fun of it! Big meals for hungry workers! Radiation inside the building is a mere 0.15uSv/hr and we were assured the produce was imported into the Zone. It was served hot but not "hot" if you know what I mean. Would 100% recommend dining here!!

    To be honest this is the most discusting meal I ever had in a ”restaurant”. Totally tasteless and the pasta had been cooked for at least twice the time it should (and we came early). Reminds me of the school lunches, but in a bad way. We were warned before, but it was supposed to be bad in a funny and a bit charmy communstic way, but it was neither funny or charmy - just plain bad.

    Definitely include this on the price of the tour! The food was yummy. You eat the way the people that work at the power plant eat! The drinks that they give are pretty good!! You have a choice of three types of meat! They even have stuff for Vegans!! It will most definitely fill you up. You won't have to worry about eating for the rest of the tour!

    This was a very special dining experience :) The only place to eat within the Chernobyl area is this Soviet 60's style restaurant. The food is authentic from that era and is actually surprisingly good. Having to do a radiation test before being served food add to the experience :)

    This is the same cafe used by the workers at the nuclear power station, it's cheap and cheerful cafeteria food which is tailored to the local palette so a bit strange, but interesting, tasty, and reminded me a little of school dinners. There's a slightly scary radiation screening on entry which is obligatory and you aren't getting in if your readings are too high. The toilets were a little substandard (more than a little really) but the cafe is an experience not to be missed. Oh and don't forget to put some bread in your pocket to feed the giant catfish at the river later.

    Obviously this isn’t Michelin quality and we never had high expectations but all in all it was good and simple in a way that fulfills your hunger and gets you the energy you need for the trip.

    We went on a day tour with go2chernobyl (which was really good) and as with other tours you get to stop here for a meal. The food is canteen food, so if you don't expect the finest cuisine then hopefully you'll enjoy this as part of the experience. There are toilet facilities and if you don't fancy the canteen food they don't mind you eating your own. When we visited there was a selection of salads, liver (which we had) or pork, about five different coloured drinks, borschch and buns.

    Was brought here on the Chernobyl tour. Canteen was still stuck in 1986 so added to the atmospheric surroundings. Staff were friendly. I had veggie option and ended up with more plates of food than my husband the meat eater! Food isn’t labelled in English so hope you like to try new dishes.

    First, surprised Google even prompted for a review of this. It is not like there are many places around here to eat. It may have been food, unsure. I did not check if the food was locally grown / culled.
