I recently visited the Well-Fed Traveler cafe in Belarus, and I was absolutely delighted! This establishment is located right by the road, which makes it a great place to stop while traveling.
From the moment I entered the cafe, I was greeted by a cozy atmosphere and friendly staff. The service was top notch — the waiters were attentive and helpful, always ready to help with the selection of dishes.
Now about the food! I tried their famous potato pancakes, and it was just divine! The crispy crust on the outside and the soft, delicate filling on the inside is exactly what I was looking for. They are served with homemade sour cream, which perfectly complements the taste.
Besides the draniki, the menu offers many other delicious dishes, and I couldn't resist the temptation to try a few more. Each dish was prepared with soul and attention to detail.
If you are looking for a place where you can have a delicious meal and relax during your trip, "Well—fed Traveler" is what you need. I recommend that anyone who passes by, be sure to look here! You won't regret it!
My review in 2023 was as follows: 5* Is the best institution in Minsk. Delicious draniki, acceptable barbecue. Conveniently located on the road, you can eat on the road. We always stop here on the way from Minsk to Russia.
As of 2025, I am editing: 1* This is no longer a well-fed traveler, this is a hungry traveler. And if you're driving early in the morning, you can't expect to be fed. One employee, he's a cook, he's a cashier, he's a waiter. I couldn't eat my favorite draniki, and I couldn't even make an order. 04/28/25 Let's go. There is a crowd, there is no one at the cash register, several people are already decently waiting for the order at the tables. It was a failure. We stood for 10-15 minutes, and then left to look for another place. Dear owners of this establishment, indicate the opening hours correctly, this is definitely not a 24-hour institution, there are clearly not enough staff.
It's a great place! We celebrated the new year here, everything is on top! Cool rooms at very pleasant prices compared to other hotels, excellent cafes, delicious food, a large selection of alcohol and not expensive! I also recommend visiting the sauna - a separate thrill) I really liked everything, thank you! I recommend it!
A great place to spend the night! The hotel is clean and tidy, and the room has everything you need, including a refrigerator. The cafe is open around the clock, the food is delicious, everything is fresh, the menu is large. Thanks to this place from satisfied and well-fed travelers!
we stopped by by accident and were stunned, very tasty. The portions are huge . The price is acceptable. There were a lot of people, so the place is popular. Of course, in this regard, we had to wait about 30 minutes for the order, but we were warned about this in advance.
I recommend
I am engaged in passenger transportation. We often stop here for a traveler. The cuisine, the hotel, and the atmosphere are all excellent. There are always a lot of drivers in different directions here, so if you need to get from Minsk to Moscow, Lugansk, Crimea, come here.
Traveling along the M-1, I often stop here to eat. It is always very tasty, the staff is responsive, clean, the food is prepared quickly. The prices are pleasant, the hall is always clean.
An ordinary roadside cafe, the food is reasonably edible, clean, the staff is moderately friendly, without excesses. It's okay to stop on the way and have a snack and relax, but nothing more. The prices are average, not low.
Convenient location. The whole family chose the Dishes for lunch according to their taste. Even a child has something to eat.
Clean and tidy. Everything is delicious!
Very tasty dishes, pleasant staff. The draniki are simply magnificent. If it would be possible to put 100 stars, I would put 200. We happened to stop by and hit the nail on the head. You won't regret it! The kitchen is like home, made with love!
We liked everything very much, we had a really delicious meal, especially everyone liked the draniki, which they did not have time to get tired of during the trip, they even took a couple of servings with them. Meat under a cheese crust, kharcho - everything was delicious, we didn't regret that we stopped for a snack in this particular place.
A simple cafe, tested by thousands of truckers. Delicious and satisfying.
We had breakfast on the way home from Minsk.
You can also take sausages with you. There is a choice for sale.
Of the advantages, a cozy place, a variety of menus, fast delivery, we rented a room (on the 1st floor room 2 for two, clean, linen smells very tasty, everything is ironed, water and chocolates in the room,TV, for a stopover for the night is excellent and not expensive! The cafe has a menu for every taste, we took solyanka, borscht, French fries and fried rice, the kitchen is solid 4. I recommend it, we will definitely come again, since we ride along this highway for long distances.
100 out of 10, we stopped for a snack on the way out, ate delicious draniki, borscht, kalduns, everything was very appetizing and, most importantly, without consequences, we drove home calmly. Thank you 👍
A pleasant, clean place, there is everything you need, a kitchen, a shower, comfortable rooms, there is a recreation area in the courtyard: gazebos, lots of greenery
Yesterday I drove by on December 11, 2024 at about 12 p.m., had 30 minutes left, stopped by to eat.
I ordered soup, bread and coffee (everything can be served quickly). I paid, got the number and waited. The cafe was not crowded, not all the tables were occupied.
There were wet spots on the table (apparently compote).
Bread was brought in 3 minutes later. THE SOUP WAITED 25 MINUTES and still did not wait!!!
In short, I did not have time to eat. I returned the number and thanked them for letting me go hungry. No one offered to refund my payment or hurry up the cooks.
It was very tasty and satisfying: we took soup and a portion of pancakes. Pancakes with sour cream are huge and classic. They ate too much. Everything is clean, cozy, and pretty fast. Served by a cute tattooed boy, I give you a well-deserved five.
A great option for relaxing on the road.. there are rooms for every pocket. Everything is clean and tidy... But the cafe on the ground floor deserves special attention, the menu is huge, everything is always delicious +.. if you are in a car and have rented a room, a guarded parking lot is provided free of charge. The cafe is open around the clock
They are well fed and watered, the compote is beyond praise.
We lived in a family room with a cat.
The beds are great, soundless.
The staff is very pleasant in communication, they are always ready to help with any questions.
I stopped unexpectedly.Menenger provided a free room.The room is clean and cozy.The staff is polite.The cafe has a varied menu.I liked everything I ordered.Thanks a lot to all the staff for the comfort.
We accidentally stopped by this cafe for lunch and did not regret it.
A cozy atmosphere. There are always a lot of people. But it does not interfere.
A huge menu. It's like in a respectable city restaurant. The food arrived quickly. It is moderately beautiful and delicious at home. The portions are large, so the children had enough for one for two.
And after eating, you can take a walk around the cozy territory. And you can continue on your way.
A good cafe, delicious food, and large portions. The prices are acceptable, slightly above average. The first, second, compote per person is about 700 rubles.for Russian money.
A good place, for a roadside cafe there is a low price tag and very decent quality of dishes. The toilet is clean, and so is the surrounding area. The room itself is clean.
The staff is simple and friendly.
We stay here 4 times a year. From the first time, the staff fell in love with themselves with their kindness, attention and politeness. At any time of the day or night in a good mood. The cafe is always very tasty and atmospheric. Thanks!
A great place for travelers, there are rooms, a sauna, and showers. Thanks to the reviews, we came to have lunch and did not lose: delicious cuisine, large portions, there is an opportunity to sit both in the hall and outside. There is a nice pond nearby.
I recommend 100%.
We visited the Well-fed Traveler cafe. I don't recommend it to anyone. I ordered a dranik, supposedly branded with the name Well-fed traveler, and tea in a teapot. They brought a large, tasteless flatbread filled with dry, tough pieces of pork and fatty overcooked onions.
"Tea" in a teapot is a separate song. Imagine a white liquid with no color, no smell, no taste, just something cloudy. I refused to drink it. However, the replacement was made immediately. But what was it?
The diner doesn't respect itself or people! Take care of yourself!
The business's response to all comments is a copy.
A clean, pleasant and inexpensive cafe. Convenient location along the road
In addition to the cafe, the complex has a hotel, a sauna, and billiards. Free Wi-Fi is available throughout the property.
I'm a trucker from Kazakhstan, I stopped by to eat on the way, the place is cozy, the staff is polite, BUT their boss sat down with me or I don't know who he was, he started insulting me with a dog, showing nationalism, and the staff silently looked at this picture,couldn't finish the dish, this place was very disappointed, and I had to change my mind about Belarusians, good luck to all
The food is very tasty, the staff is wonderful. I was satisfied, the name justifies itself, the portions are large and the price is reasonable! I definitely recommend it!!! Thanks!!!
We often stop at this cafe on the way from Brest to St. Petersburg, it is the most decent on the highway. There is a large assortment on the menu, everything that was tasted was delicious. Very fast delivery, which allows you not to waste time on the way.
AGRICULTURAL ENTERPRISES. AND THERE'S NO OTHER WAY TO SAY IT. I DIDN'T EVEN ORDER, THE STAFF IS SO DISRESPECTFUL WHEN COMMUNICATING WITH THE GUEST RIGHT FROM THE ENTRANCE. THIS PLACE IS FOR THOSE WHO LIKE TO GET FUCKED UP FOR YOUR MONEY. IN GENERAL, IT'S A CANTEEN THAT I WON'T COME TO AGAIN EVEN IN A HUNGRY YEAR.
A good option for travelers on the M-1 highway, on the way from Minsk to Russia. A large selection of Belarusian dishes (we chose draniki, sorcerers and baked fish). Everything is fresh and delicious. It is especially nice that the dishes were brought quickly. We waited no more than 10-15 minutes. At the same time, you can buy lard and other delicious "gifts from Belarus" here. In general, we will go there again - we will look again.
I recommend it!
If you pass by, be sure to stop for a meal. Very tasty and not expensive! If you need to spend the night, come here too. Cozy, clean. The rooms have everything you need. Well, if you want something more, then there is a sauna. Great place!
Delicious food, excellent cuisine, fast service, clean enough, you don't have to wait long. The pleasant atmosphere of the roadside cafe. The only thing that pumps up is the presence of flies
The food is very tasty, there are complex breakfasts and lunches. You can relax in the gazebos inside the courtyard. Chefs prepare food with a soul. I definitely advise you!!!
Prosperity and well-being!!!
What should I say? No wonder the rating is 5.0, no wonder! Delicious, the service is fast, the staff is polite. We ate fine. The dishes are hearty! If the pancake is with meat, then it is the size of the entire plate. Pancakes with sour cream- I've tried a lot of places, here are some of the most delicious! ‼️It is very nice that there are such places on the track. We ate for three for about 900 rubles of the Russian Federation.
We had lunch on the way from Grodno, the borscht was delicious, but one potato, a tomato salad with cheese and chicken tasted like something stale, either the chicken or the cheese were clearly not the first freshness. In general, for such a price tag, the quality is three
A great cafe by the road. Incredibly delicious homemade food, really large portions, low prices - a set lunch of only 25 bel. rubles (730 Russian). What else do you need?

It is convenient when traveling from Vladimir, for example, to Brest. We need to spend the night somewhere. The most convenient location. Friendly staff, you can buy groceries and have a good meal (lunch, dinner, breakfast), you can just drink coffee and take a break on the way.
We stopped by for breakfast. Good, but more expensive than the same in the city, as in principle for all roadside establishments. In general, there is a large selection of dishes, but if you are lucky, if a bus with tourists arrives in front of you, then a lot can end. The service is excellent and attentive.
We have never stayed here overnight.
About the hotel: the rooms are quite comfortable, with their own bathroom. There is a TV. Free water, Alenka chocolate. Disposable slippers are available.
The last time we were here in November, the room on the 3rd floor is quite cool, the batteries are barely warm. They told about it at the reception, promised to fix it and it seemed to be fixed, but the stoker turned something off again and as a result it was cold again.
For the inconvenience, we made a 50% discount on breakfast in the cafe. The food is ordinary, the prices are reasonable.
I would like to mention the staff - polite, try to please and help, sociable.
Pancakes with mushrooms are generally a separate topic, very tasty and satisfying!!! We visit often and are very satisfied with the quality of food and service!!! Well done
