Karosta is a really unique and rare place not only in Latvia but also within the
historical, architectural and urban construction framework worldwide. Karosta
is one of the most unusual sightseeing spots in Latvia. You may or may not like it, but it will definitely leave an impression on you.
In our authentic prison buffet we have warm pies and aromatic coffee, and also a variety of hot meals. And do not forget to try our special refreshments! You will be served by a real soviet-time buffet-lady.
