Dzyha
This café-cum-art gallery in the shadow of the Dominican Cathedral has a relaxed vibe. It’s particularly popular with bohemian, alternative types, but seems to attract pretty much everyone, really. If it’s full there are other attractive options for a nibble or a cuppa joe nearby on postcard-worthy vul Virmenska. If you just can’t get enough, Dzyha has also been writing its vibe large at the ethnic music festival Pidkamin (pidkamin.ridne.net), south of Pochayiv.

Pid Synoyu Plyashkoyu
With its nostalgia for the Polish-Austrian past and its dark interior, this tiny café at the back of a courtyard has a cosy, secretive atmosphere. It serves sandwiches and fondues, as well as wine and coffee with pepper. It’s hard to find; look for the blue bottle.

Zoloti Dukat
The mirrored ceiling in this faux bat-cave creates all sorts of optical illusions – this place would be a real hit in Amsterdam. No cannabis here, just what may be Lviv’s best (and best-smelling) coffee in a mercifully smoke-free environment.

Italyansky Dvorik
Even if you decide to skip the Lviv History Museum, it’s worth popping in for a coffee in its aptly named inner courtyard. You usually have to pay a cover charge, which in principle is an outrage, but it is only 50 kopecks (10¢).

Kabinet Café
Despite the nationalist symbols plastered on the walls, there’s still a brown wrapping-paper, Soviet atmosphere. You can curl up with a book (there’s a small library) in a cosy antique throne, or have a game of billiards.
