RETRO CasCade

Retro Cafe Cascade
Retro Cafe Cascad 
Retro is one of the trendiest cafes of Yerevan. This is a local café that started with only a little place near Cascade but later opened the second branch in the center. The café is one of the most favorite places of the youth.
Let’s start from the place and the interior. So as I mentioned there are 2 Retro Cafes in Yerevan: One near Cascade and One near Opera. Even though both of them are the same café, they somehow differ from each other. I will try to explain why.
So the Retro Café in Cascade was the first one to open couple of years ago having only little space and couple of chairs and table. Despite little space and lack of privacy because of little space between the tables, the place was very loved and trendy: everyone started to go there very quickly, the place was always full, and it did not matter when you went, there was no rush hour, it was a rush day every single day. Reason? Nice food, staff and interior.
The Cascade Retro has an inside place and an outside place that is opened up in spring and is then closed at the end of the fall when sitting outside starts making no sense because of cold weather.
So the inside of the Cascade Retro is as already told very small but very pleasant: old-style walls with big pattern print, black and white photos hanging on the wall, old posters in frames and wooden furniture. The atmosphere is very warm and cozy. Does not matter when you go here you always feel very comfortable.
The staff is very nice and friendly. The most important thing is that they are very helpful: It happened couple times that I went there but unfortunately there were no available tables. In these situations the waiters try to fit you somewhere, find a free spot and in extreme cases when there is no chance, they take your phone number and call you when there is a free spot. This is a very nice trick to attract visitors because as you see does not matter how busy they are they do not want to miss even a single client. And this does not just concern the very generous clients that make long orders and leave nice tips but in general every customer gets this treatment. Today, agree that this is a very rare thing.

In warm seasons they open the summer porch that is really the greatest place ever. Imagine it in spring or summer you are sitting near CasCade at a nice place enjoying your meal or drink. Tempting right? Then get up from your sit right now and visit this place.
