Café · Samarkand
A compact bakery café on Mirzo Ulugbek Street: coffee, desserts and pies, house-baked bread, European dishes and gluten-free options.
Hleb House — “hleb” is Russian for bread — is on Mirzo Ulugbek Street, about 130 m from the El-Merosi theatre coffee house. It is small but cosy: people drop in for coffee, desserts and pies, and the bakery also sells its own bread, gluten-free loaves included.
The menu features European dishes such as slow-braised beef in ciabatta, baked trout and a chicken bowl. There is an English menu, and laptop users are welcome.
Information checked: October 2026. Prices and hours can change — call ahead before you go. We do not take bookings: contact the venue directly.
