Food was extraordinary. We had snails for beginners: hot, smooth and well cooked. As good as escargot I had in France. I had badly cooked, also Snotty snails, so I know the difference. Bone marrow, and soft shells crabs for main. Delicious, rich and tasteful. The place itself is small and cozy with a great atmosphere. Book a table on weekends.

What User doesn't like about Cafe Antikvariāts:
Service is really nice and welcoming, and their choices of gin are amazing. But it is really overpriced for a city like Liepaja, and portions are small. Keep that in mind before you go there. View all feedback.
This place is open on weekdays between 16-22. We booked a place the next day at 16.00. When we arrived at the place on the day of the reservation the place was closed, but the local worker waited for us with a letter of apology from the owner and a bottle of wine. We ordered a place again the next day. We arrived on time, but the owner who was there threw us out by saying that the restaurant was invited to a group of 15 people and there was no place. Such places have no right to exist and will soon be bankrupt. It is also what we wish them
Food was extraordinary. We had snails for beginners: hot, smooth and well cooked. As good as escargot I had in France. I had badly cooked, also Snotty snails, so I know the difference. Bone marrow, and soft shells crabs for main. Delicious, rich and tasteful. The place itself is small and cozy with a great atmosphere. Book a table on weekends. Service was friendly and welcoming if not entirely up to UK “Silver Service” levels of attention. But the boss/owner has checked us. We had a great time and would definitely recommend this place and come back to Liepaja for the next time. Thank you.
This is a must in Liepāja. We finally had the chance to visit this small but unique wine bar, and I must say – it is perfect. French vibes, super artistic and stylish, but cozy. Had good coffee and delicious French red wine. The waiter was kind too. The music – at the point. Really big vibes, can't emphasize enough.
I am always about good service! But this time I saw how too much “good service” can be very bad. My friend and I went to the restaurant for lunch. It was around 4.30 pm at Friday. The waiter told me that she is not sure that the kitchen is working. Really? Not sure? At Friday? After we got the table the owner of the restaurant did’t gave us even five minutes to check the menu. He was very intrusive and persistent and didn’t listened, when I declined the snails 3 times and that I asked to give us some time to decide... after one minute he was back and started the same with the drinks pushing us to chose his preferences. The prices are very high. Pasta with shrimps 15 EUR! The pasta was good, but not for that price. My conclusion this place is overrated. Liepāja is very nice city and you can find lot of some others places to have lunch or dinner.
Best participation in Latvia and large wine collection. Just go, sit down and get away from the food experience. PS. I would recommend booking a table. (depending on when you are in Liepaja)
