Three-storeyed building at the corner of O. Kobylyanska and O. Dobry streets was an adornment of the street. The eclectic was applied: Romanesque, classic style, and empire style are combined. In the design the classical pilasters and arched ceilings, chapiters are used. As a coffee house, it was known from 1883, furnished with taste and, according to its visitors, produced a good impression. Here citizens met and spent time pleasantly. At the services of guests were offered English, French, Romanian, Polish, Hungarian and other newspapers. Yet at the beginning of the XX century, approximately in 1903-1905, the premises of this café was redesigned and redecorated, the interior was changed completely. The largest hall to the right of the entrance, was decorated with large mirrors, the wall opposite the entrance – so-called dead wall (without windows) was adorned with two mirrors in very good, expensive frames of modern style. On the side walls the Bohemian glass mirrors were installed on gilded bronze mounts without frames. The rooms of the best restaurant were lit by exquisite bronze chandeliers. Oval niches in the wall between the columns are now empty, and they were created by the architect specifically for lamps – once there were two large lamps here, each of which illuminated a separate room. Both halls were beautifully furnished with exquisite modern furniture. The doors were made of precious mahogany with the addition of polished Bohemian glass. Almost a complete mirror design of the walls created a feeling of space and light and adorned the premises of the restaurant a lot. In the Soviet period the building was known to Chernivtsi citizens as “Dniester” restaurant (is not operational now). Architectural memorial of local significance.
