This lovely little place is located on Kabanbai Batyr Street near its intersection with Dostyk Avenue, which is the center of the city. The 'Dandy Breakfast' I ordered was beautiful and delicious. The price, I'd say, is slightly higher for that amount of food you would spend at a more budget-friendly cafeteria or pastry shop, but it was done very quickly and nicely decorated with lots of greenery. I enjoyed the quick service!
The interior is aesthetically attractive, very clean and cosy, and there are outdoor tables. Dandy positions itself as a 'pastry studio', so it's more for lovers of sweets, there are different kinds of cakes, croissants etc., however, having some 'light' breakfast (they serve them like snacks) there is also a good idea!
