"Stolle is all about pies, which is pretty clear from the spread of yummy-looking pastry concoctions that greet you as you walk in. Their many varieties of homemade pirog, from apricot to chocolate to cabbage and even rabbit (!) all go down a treat with a cup of coffee or two."
"The puff pastry-like crusts are beautifully decorated in floral patterns almost too pretty to cut into. Almost. Where to get it: Stolle Cafe."
"Returning to the city centre, we call in at Stolle, the best pirog (pie) shop in town. From savoury chicken and succulent salmon to sweet redcurrant and apple, the mouthwatering creations of this St Petersburg institution are a good advert for Russia’s sometimes-maligned cuisine."
"It is large, solid, nourishing. By eating a pirog, you forget the gastritis, the regimes or ungrateful love."
"This chain specialises in Ukrainian pies (Pirog). Pie is a very complex affair in Ukraine with a variety of vegetarian, meat, fish and fruit centres. Pie is a meal in itself. The fillings combine vegetables and meat and flavours."
"The successful formula combines attractively designed outlets with interiors modeled on late-19th century fashions and a menu based around the great Russian pie. Fresh-baked pirogi with sweet and savoury fillings are served by the slice and available for delivery or takeout."
"Pirogi (stuffed dough cake) is the Russian national dish par excellence. The best in St. Petersburg (or perhaps all over Russia) is at Stolle."
"We then headed to a restaurant called Stolle, famous for its pirog (Russian pie). Whether you opt for savoury or sweet (it was a hard choice we all had to make), you won’t be disappointed."
"Lightly toasted crusts with glances of strawberry, sour cherry and apricot promising treasures to whoever would be so fortunate as to penetrate the light, slightly crunchy surface with their teeth, spreading the insides along their taste buds, providing immediate gratification for their efforts."
