This restaurant doesn't really have an address since it's located in the arch between buildings 26 and 28, on old paving stones laid in 1905. Inside the restaurant there are moss-covered peeling brick walls. This is believed to be the city's first building. At one time it accommodated the administration of Siberian and Kazan-based industrialists.

The restaurant has a huge takeaway menu, which includes grilled food. There's something for every taste, from chebureks(fried meat pasties) to chicken wraps, steaks and calf cheeks. The diners can watch the food being prepared. To add to all this football fans will be able to choose from a whole variety of craft beer.

The restaurant's most popular takeaway is "double chebureks" and the 26/28 signature burgers. Juicy beef patties are grilled and served in fluffy potato buns with tomatoes and lettuce. To make them even tastier and juicier Dorblu or Cheddar cheese can be added together with gherkins and onion rings.

Another hit to sample at Grill is calf cheeks. This dish takes three days to prepare: first the cheeks are slowly stewed at low temperature and then roasted in their own juices with spices until they are very tender. The meat is served with new potatoes roasted with garlic and herbs, and grilled vegetables.
