  1. A

    Akvatoria

    For all its obsession with fishing, Astrakhan is short on places cooking fresh fish from the Volga. This floating restaurant is a pleasant exception. Choose between local specialities, such as sazan,bershik,vobla, catfish or pike caviar, then admire the Volga sunset view.

  2. Fish Market

    The lively fish market is worth a visit to pick up some snacks or to witness the vibrant trade in produce and fish. Try oblyoma, the local speciality, a salty fish complemented by beer (or vice versa). Head north of Kommunisticheskaya ul until it becomes Pokrovskaya pl.

    La Vanile

    Flower pots abound, water streams down a glass wall and a canary sings favourite French pop tunes. We tried salmon salad with quail eggs, mushroom profiteroles, and the psychedelic-coloured cherry and almond dessert. Chef Patrice Talbotte instantly became our hero of the day.

    Sharlow Coffee House

    A popular spot for those seeking a caffeine fix. The colourful ceiling and gigantic coffee-themed murals lend an artsy atmosphere to this cheery place. A few soups and sandwiches are available, in addition to the sweet stuff.

    Horseshoe Grill

    If the weather drives you inside, try this place, which is along the naberezhnaya. The atmosphere is pleasant (although a bit dark in summer) and the menu is more varied than its outdoor counterparts.

  6. Scharlau Coffee House

    This friendly and competent café-cum-canteen is located inside a former chocolate factory built in the 19th century by a German whose name it proudly bears.
