Testimonials

"15 years since we started The Moscow Times and I cannot imagine starting my day without the newspaper. It's become so much part of my life - and of the lives of so many Muscovites that we take The Moscow Times for granted - and we forget the enormous effort that goes into it every day- from the splendid editorial contents to the driver who delivers The Moscow Times early each morning at my doorstep.
Thanks to you all!"

Also available is a range of handmade pastries and other confections. Beverages include a selection of nonalcoholic juices, smoothies, lemonades and ice teas. The brunch costs 2,500 rubles per person, children aged six to 12 eat for half price, while those under six eat for free.
