The fresh new facade of Cinderella Russian Bakery & Cafe
Cinderella Russian Bakery & Cafe at 436 Balboa must have gotten an invitation to the ball recently, because she’s all dolled up!
The cafe underwent an exterior face lift and added a new awning, tables, chairs and window coverings, giving the cafe a fresh new look.
The cafe was established in 1953 and is a neighborhood favorite for its authentic Russian pastries, meat pies and selection of entreés, soups and specialties.
According to their website, they are also now offering hot and cold sandwiches, and salads. You can even email or call ahead for curbside pickup.
Take that wicked stepsisters! Cinderella is stepping out. 😉

Inset: the before shot of the cafe’s exterior.
well I guess I’ll have to go down there and try a sandwich
Looks awesome!!..Piroshki time!..Then Uncle Boy’s for dinner! W00t!
What a beaut! Their pelmeni is rockin (esp doused in white vinegar & topped w/ sour cream).
I love their poppy-seed cake; we also noticed they now carry not only two kinds of sliced bread, but more variety… and of course, Brain Toniq! 😉
Clear Noodle Pie! Oh!
Wish they still did breakfast like they did years ago — omlette with mashed potatoes and a pickle! That was crazy awesome.
Very nice!
WHAT A GREAT NEW LOOK, COMPARED TO THE LOOK OF THE 50s. BARBARA AND I GO THERE EVERYTIME WE COME TO THE CITY. THE PIROSHKI’S ARE TO DIE FOR. WE TRY TO BE THERE AT 10AM WHEN THEY COME OUT OD THE OVENS HOT AND JUICY. LOVE THEM.
