Absolutely summer: the best verandas of the season. We open a summer cafe according to all the rules: no complaints - no problems

This season, according to the Moscow Department of Trade and Services, 26 summer cafes should appear in parks, including such large ones as Sokolniki, Gorky Park, VDNKh. Also, verandas can be placed on lawns, but not on the roofs of houses and at transport hubs. Seasonal verandas also cannot be placed closer than 25 meters from metro entrances and closer than 5 meters from underground pedestrian crossings. However, the latest rules were in effect last year. But the area in which there are uniform standards for the design and installation of summer cafes, approved two years ago, has expanded.

“In 2014, the standards applied only to seasonal establishments that opened within the Boulevard Ring,” Alexei Nemeryuk, head of the Moscow Department of Trade and Services, told RG. “In 2015, to cafes located within the boundaries of the Third Transport Ring. Starting this year standards have reached the borders of the Moscow Ring Road.

According to the head of the department, 2,047 objects were included in the territorial scheme for placing open verandas this season. But this does not mean that just as many cafes will open. “So many catering establishments have the appropriate permits,” Nemeryuk explained. “Let me remind you that now in Moscow there is a rule: permission to open a seasonal cafe at a stationary establishment is issued once and for all. A month is allotted for issuing permits, not six months, as before” .

Nemeryuk clarified that not all restaurateurs equip their summer terrace during the season. The reasons may be different, for example, there is no money for additional staff. According to the head of the Federation of Restaurateurs and Hoteliers Igor Bukharov, as a rule, they do not use the main staff to work in summer cafes, they hire seasonal workers - usually students. But they also need to pay.

As in the past year, restaurateurs do not intend to spend money on decor. Individual projects of summer verandas, as explained in the Moscow Committee for Architecture, where they are agreed upon, are ordered by a few owners of stationary cafes. “Revenues of stationary cafes are falling,” Bukharov notes, “here, as they say, there is no time for excesses.” Therefore, most summer cafes will consist of wooden terraces with flooring or metal structures covered with awnings made of waterproof materials. Or restaurateurs simply arrange tables with chairs under umbrellas and flowers in tubs around the edges.

Such minimalism is typical for many European capitals. But as for smoking on summer verandas, it seems that we will have to forget about it after all. Last year, restaurateurs whose summer cafes consisted of tables and chairs were not forbidden to display ashtrays. This issue has not yet been resolved. As explained in the Department of Trade, Rospotrebnadzor is against smoking in summer cafes.

WG / Maria Pakhmutova / Olga Ignatova

Restaurants one by one open their summer verandas - the most impatient ones started doing it at the end of April, the most cautious ones are waiting for the beginning of June. We welcome the movement of absorbers under awnings, awnings and tents and have selected 30 of the most interesting restaurants with terraces for them.

The picturesque summer terrace of the restaurant is one of the sights of Moscow. Its marble naiads, green park columns, arches and fountains create the atmosphere of a trellis park of the late 18th - early 19th century. It perfectly matches the new function of the terrace: to become the summer residence of Veuve Clicquot champagne. Until May 31, in the entire restaurant, and on the champagne terrace until May 11, each guest is offered a tasting set of dim sum as a gift - in the restaurant, where 23 types of steam dumplings are cooked, there is a festival of this dish. An exceptionally luxurious place.

Three floors of the temple of meat on Prechistenka were crowned with an elegant cherry - the terrace on the roof of the mansion turned to face the Cathedral of Christ the Savior. For a friendly company, cold cuts are suitable, and for a romantic dinner under the metropolitan sky - the Café de Paris steak with porcini mushroom sauce. However, the choice is unlimited: the main menu of Voronezh and Meat Club and an updated bar list are available on the terrace.

The appetite of Muscovites for seafood is not weak. It was decided to add another veranda for 150 seats to the two hundred seats of the main hall. In the midst of pavilions, pergolas and other green beauty, oysters with champagne, hedgehogs and all sorts of shrimps and bears will go like a song.

The atmosphere of serenity and peace surrounded by plants and flowers makes you blissfully squint in the sun, and the cat's feeling of happiness only progresses when meeting with the kitchen of Adrian Quetglas. Rabbit thigh with coconut bulgur and carrot puree or citrus creme brulee with almond biscuit were clearly invented by him on a sunny day!

Anton Kovalkov is now torn between the chef's table and the tree-lined veranda in the courtyard of the restaurant on Tverskoy Boulevard. For those who can not sit still, they offer a menu of dishes and drinks to take away. By the way, chef bartender Denis Kryazhev updated the cocktail list for the opening of the terrace. Musical passions will rage here on Thursdays, barbecue brunches and films will be shown on weekends. Fahrenheit, it seems, seriously swung at the title of the best restaurant for golden youth.

Most of the dishes in Novosti are prepared and served in an average of 5 minutes, which means you can have a quick bite here and continue your walk ... or still stay longer and relax in the shade with a glass of cold white or an author's cocktail from Katya Efimova.

The veranda is open on weekdays from 12:00 to 00:00. Opening hours will be extended on weekends.

Placement of a seasonal (summer) cafe, regulated by Decree No. 102-PP of 03/06/2015
Decree No. 102-PP

Is your cafe included in the deployment?

First, you need to find out if the restaurant is included in the layout of non-stationary seasonal facilities. Check if the address of your cafe or restaurant is included in the layout of seasonal cafes. For example, if there was another restaurant at this address, the previous owner of which submitted documents for approval of a site for a summer cafe, or you know that the veranda was in accordance with the law, then you, as a new owner, just need to submit your package of documents and a project for a summer cafe to approve this territory to its own legal entity.

There is another option - you want to get a large area for summer cafe verandas or considering an additional site for a seasonal cafe, you can collect the necessary package of documents, develop a project for a new area and submit it for approval. Examples for summer cafe placement

Summer cafe location season

Where can you place a summer cafe or what can serve as a playground?

Now let's find out where install a summer cafe and how to choose a platform for it.

Sidewalk

The simplest and most standard is to place summer cafe on the sidewalk, along the facade of the building in which the restaurant is located. An outdoor cafe should be adjacent to a stationary catering facility or stand at a distance, but not more than 5 meters, from the entrance group in a straight line. We draw your attention to the fact that if you have an entrance with steps, a porch, then this distance is measured from the last step to the summer platform.

Important! When equipping a summer cafe on the sidewalk, it is necessary to leave a passage for pedestrians. This distance is calculated according to the type of street where the summer cafe is planned to be located.
Maria Andreeva

Lawn

Very often, the lawn is not even considered as a platform for a summer cafe. But it is possible. Placing a summer cafe on the lawn allowed only with the installation of technological flooring, podium. Let's consider this option in more detail. What part of the lawn can be occupied to accommodate a summer cafe. If trees and/or shrubs occupying less than 50% of the lawn area grow on the lawn, then it is possible to install a flyer, if more than 50% - then it is impossible. If there is only a lawn on the site, occupy at least the entire one, but do not forget a few important points:
- the area of the summer cafe cannot exceed the total area of the restaurant, cafe
- when arranging a summer cafe on the lawn, it is necessary to provide a wooden podium
- the veranda should not go beyond the boundaries of a stationary enterprise

Not allowed! Placement of seasonal cafes using structures (equipment) arranged around (above) trees, shrubs and leading to full or partial enclosing of their crowns, trunks directly inside the seasonal cafe.
Maria Andreeva

Roof

Maybe you are on the top floor of the building and you have direct access to the roof, which offers a stunning view of the capital? Do you think it is possible to put a veranda? We answer - if according to the documents the roof is operated and the building is not residential, then installation of a summer cafe on the roof possible!

Territory of business centers and shopping and entertainment centers

If your restaurant, cafe is located on the territory of a business center or shopping center, you can place the veranda of the restaurant on the stylobates and other open areas adjacent to them, the main thing is that your cafe has a separate entrance.

Do not forget! The summer cafe should be located at a distance of no more than 5 meters from the entrance group.
Maria Andreeva

Is the restaurant or cafe not on the ground floor?

If a stationary catering establishment is located in the basement of a building or located above the first floor, for example, on the second floor of a non-residential building. Install a summer terrace for a restaurant perhaps in case you have a separate exit to the street.

Do not forget!
- Place boundaries placement of a seasonal cafe should not violate the rights of owners and users of neighboring premises. The summer cafe should be located clearly within the boundaries of the restaurant. These boundaries are visible on the plans of the BTI, which are attached to the lease agreement for the premises.
- The area of the summer cafe cannot exceed the total area of the restaurant, cafe.
- If there are several catering establishments in the same building, then the outer border of your veranda should not go beyond the borders of the already established verandas of neighboring cafes and restaurants. At the same time, summer verandas of restaurants should be decorated in the same style.

Environmental factors that influence the placement of a summer cafe

Public transport stops, pedestrian underpasses, subway technical facilities, station lobbies and subway pedestrian underpasses. In the presence of these factors, it is necessary to observe a certain distance from these elements to the boundaries of the summer cafe. Otherwise, when planning summer cafe placement, it is necessary to calculate the distance for the passage of pedestrians in accordance with SNiP 2.07.01-89 * Urban planning. Planning and development of urban and rural settlements.

Elements of urban improvement

These include city lighting masts, bins, bicycle parking, flower beds, benches, etc. When planning the placement of a summer cafe in areas near which these elements are located, it is necessary to provide a passage for pedestrians. The streets and roads of the capital are divided into categories: streets and roads of main and local significance, as well as main streets. Depending on the category of the street where the summer cafe is planned to be located, the distance for the passage of pedestrians will be calculated in accordance with SNiP 2.07.01-89* Urban planning. Planning and development of urban and rural settlements, p. 6 "Network of streets and roads."
