Rated okay as it could be better managed. The art works are wonderful but not enough clientele. The cafe is simply artful. Although you would still have to pay the entrance fee to the museum just to get to the cafe!

Wonderful place to visit, opens till 2100, adult AZN 5, cafe on the second floor only serves drinks. Restricted no photography on temporary exhibit on second level. Well worth a visit. Relax with a latte after browsing through or to take a rest.
