This cozy place is called "City Cafe 317" (1/2 Gluboky Lane). A small room was quite roomy due to the mezzanine, one of which is located above the bar, and the other - in the opposite side of the hall. They set the basic geometric rhythm of the interior. An elongated podium with a wooden bench and a glass entrance cube help in this. Parallel lines of the podium, a number of tables, wooden slats in the entrance decoration, metal bars with lamps on the ceiling create the illusion of the prospect of a city avenue. The walls are decorated with works of foreign photographers on the theme of the modern metropolis, which bring unexpected jazz notes to the atmosphere. And finally, why 317? Troika means the basis on which the cafe rests - it is faith, hope, love; the unit is exclusive of the interior, and the seven says that the cafe is open to the public seven days a week.
