About Us

After travelling the world for a year and falling in love with Uzbekistan, best friends Angelica and Luisa from England decided to open Samarkand's first vegan/vegetarian friendly cafe.

Inspired by the beautiful produce in the markets and the gorgeous crafts of the Silk Road we felt that we could offer other vegetarian and vegan travellers a comfortable retreat full of home made delights using local, seasonal ingredients.

In the heart of the old town of Samarkand we found our perfect location, next to the stunning Bibi Khanum Mosque and Siyob Bizori (Local market) here we made a haven with considered decor, curated playlists and delicious food. We hope you can visit us soon!

We hope you'll enjoy your visit to Samarkind, we have designed the space to be warm and inviting, comfortable and modern but with nods to the local crafts and history of Samarkand City.

With vintage handmade suzani embroidered pieces, local pottery, photographs, art and wall hangings we hope you'll find something inspiring to rest your eyes on whilst enjoying something delicious from the menu.

We also curate our music playlists which we hope will provide a relaxing and nostalgic backdrop to your visit.

Our staff speak Uzbek, Russian and English and we have menus available in all the above plus, Italian and French.
