Imbir

Kyiv


'Ginger' is a delightfully earthy cafe filled with books, Zen-inspired music and the scent of jasmine. The Asian and European menu is all-vegetarian, including plenty of vegan and raw options, and there's a cosy patio if you prefer to dine in the open air. Great smoothies and lassies as well.

They also run the Imbir health-food store nearby on vul Velyka Vasylkivska.
