Tripadvisor’s approach to reviews
Before posting, each Tripadvisor review goes through an automated tracking system, which collects information, answering the following questions: how, what, where and when. If the system detects something that potentially contradicts our community guidelines, the review is not published.
When the system detects a problem, a review may be automatically rejected, sent to the reviewer for validation, or manually reviewed by our team of content specialists, who work 24/7 to maintain the quality of the reviews on our site.
Our team checks each review posted on the site disputed by our community as not meeting our community guidelines.
Learn more about our review moderation.

Super yummy food on a reasonable price and served with a smile. After eating in, I immediately order some for take-away, too.

We came here as we saw good reviews online and it’s very recommended for a traditional Bulgarian breakfast. The food did not disappoint, we came both mornings on our visit for breakfast and had the makitsi, as well as trying the sweet and savoury benitsa...(preferred the savoury). The coffee is nice although it could of been a bit warmer and less foamy. The staff were very friendly, you can tell they are very busy and under a lot of pressure but still very helpful and polite. Outdoor area is nice and heated in the colder weather. The price is extremely reasonable, as a Brit most things are in comparison but you get a lot for your money. I would definitely come back again.More

Called here because it was well rated on Tripadvisor. The coffee was great and the bruschetta salad plentiful. The desert of the day was also very good. Menus were available in English and the staff spoke good English too. Nice pleasant place to dine.

Very delicious, quick personal, fresh breakfasts, nice customers and workers. Very different original choice of meals. I would like to taste more things. Like cakes and strudel.

Broad menu with plenty options for lunch and brunch. We tried a salad, some local side dishes and a chicken sandwich, which were all just fine. They have a big outside terrace, which comes in handy in corona times.

RF2 is a brief 10 minute walk from the ice skating arena. We thoroughly enjoyed breakfast there twice. The banitza (cheese pancake) mekitza (fried dough), avocado toast, bruschetta and pastures were fresh and delicious, as were the hot drinks. The service was excellent too.

We had breakfast there twice while we were in Sofia. We had the Mekitsa, the mekitsa with cheese and eggs, and the banana cheesecake. Loved everything! The cofee is also really good. The staff is friengly and helpfull. Unfortunatelly, the menu is only in Bulgarian....On Sunday it was very full, luckily we found a table. It is self service, so I had to wait a while, but in the end it was defenetly worth it.More

Nothing special, I have the feeling the products they use are poor quality. Definitely, not worth their prices and reputation.

Me and my colleagues eat for lunch almost every day and the food is really fresh, nicely cooked and everyday has new lunch meal. The staff makes the dish in front of you so everything is hot and fresh but also they seem to have...really great preparation before the start of the lunch time so we never wait. Really nice atmosphere, nice interior and great people!More

Stopped there for a quick breakfast. The food was tasty, the service was fast and helpful. The place is self-service, so you make a reservation at the counter and get you food there then it's ready.

Charming place, in the best part of town. Friendly staff, passion for good service and quality. Great coffee! They offer salads, sandwiches, cakes, great drinks, and all sorts of breakfast and brunch foods. Would recommend this location over their other cafe.
