Looking for brunch in Vilnius? These three places offer different starting points: a bakery-led breakfast in Paupys, specialty coffee and food in the Old Town, or sweet and savoury pancakes in a social-enterprise restaurant. This guide identifies the specific branches, so you can find the right address rather than a different cafe with the same name.
This is a practical shortlist, not a citywide ranking or an account of meals personally tested by our editors. The choices reflect their distinct food focus and the information published by the operators. Addresses, contacts and menu information were checked on 5 October 2026. Menus, prices and breakfast service times can change: check the linked operator page or contact the branch before making a special trip.
Druska Miltai Vanduo: the Paupys branch
Druska Miltai Vanduo means "Salt Flour Water". The operator describes its sourdough bread and long breakfasts, alongside changing seasonal lunch menus. For this guide, use DMV Paupys at Aukštaičių g. 7, not the separate branches in Ogmios, at MO Museum or elsewhere in Vilnius. Paupys is a useful choice if you want to combine breakfast with a walk around that neighbourhood.
Before you go: The official contacts page lists the Paupys branch as open daily 09:00-18:00; opening hours do not guarantee that every breakfast dish is served throughout the day. Use the operator-linked map to find it, or email paupys@druskamiltaivanduo.lt for the current menu, dietary options and table availability. The operator's linked Paupys reservation page was unavailable during our check, so this guide does not rely on it. We have not confirmed a current branch-specific dish list or prices.
Backstage Cafe: coffee and food at Vokiečių g. 6
Backstage Cafe at Vokiečių g. 6 is the Old Town location, not Backstage Roastery Cafe at T. Ševčenkos g. 16h-9 in Naujamiestis. Choose the Vokiečių branch for a central coffee stop with food. The operator describes breakfast, weekend brunch and lunch across its cafes, but also says dishes can differ between locations. That is why a menu from another Backstage branch should not be treated as a promise here.
Before you go: The official cafe directory gives Vokiečių opening hours as Monday-Friday 08:00-20:00 and Saturday-Sunday 08:30-18:00. Call +370 698 58588 to confirm today's food menu, breakfast service and table availability, or use the directory's map for this branch. For specific dishes and prices, ask the Vokiečių team rather than assuming that everything described in the chain's general menu is available at this address.
Pirmas Blynas: pancakes in Ramintoja Church
Pirmas Blynas is a social-enterprise pancake restaurant employing people with disabilities. Its address is Savičiaus g. 15, on the ground floor of Ramintoja Church. Look for the restaurant in the church building rather than expecting a conventional cafe frontage. Its pancake focus makes it a different choice from the bakery or coffee-led stops above.
Menu and booking: The operator's menu includes sweet and savoury pancakes, with examples such as chocolate, smoked salmon and burrata; it also identifies vegetarian and vegan options. Ask the staff about ingredients and allergens rather than assuming every dish meets a dietary requirement. Reserve or check opening and service times by calling +370 645 62593. Older directory hours differ from the operator's schedule, so confirm your planned visit directly. Use the linked menu to work out your budget; prices depend on the dish and drinks you choose.
Brunch is the easy introduction. For the dishes people actually mean when they say Lithuanian food, cepelinai and šaltibarščiai included, see the guide to traditional Lithuanian restaurants in Vilnius.
How to choose and plan your visit
Choose DMV Paupys for a bakery-led start in Paupys, Backstage Vokiečių for specialty coffee and food while exploring the Old Town, or Pirmas Blynas if pancakes and its social-enterprise mission are your priorities. Check the exact branch, the time its breakfast menu is served and table availability before travelling. For families, wheelchair access, dietary needs or a larger group, ask the venue directly about your requirements; this guide has not independently verified facilities or accessibility. No fixed brunch price or guaranteed table availability is implied.
