Vikbolds Riga

Cheap, fast and mostly tasty

""Vikbolds" Riga is a simple and cheap lunch place which makes for a perfect spot, not just because of the price and food but also the cosy ambiance.."

No, it is not fast food. And you have to be ready to stay in line at lunch time (but we all know that real fast food often is not fast at all). It is one more simple and cheap lunch place for the working force of Riga. We are lucky to have those. 

Vikbolds offer a regular menu with a variety of meat and vegetable dishes. And a special "Lunch offer" where you can have several dishes for a special price. Meal + drink € 2.65. Meal, soup & drink € 3.20.

Do not expect anything fancy, it is not a restaurant, it is for a quick meal on your lunch break. And maybe not everything is always perfect. I say it's quick despite the lines I mentioned, but they are working fast, especially if most people choose their lunch offer.

Although this place is meant to feed as many people as fast as they can, they do not forget about supplying a nice atmosphere.

Motormuzejs

Polished History

It is an experience that takes you back many decades. You can sit in an old-school bus and drive through the Latvian countryside or ring up a soviet-era phone booth to listen to anecdotes.
