The restaurant is located in the Jacob's Barracks complex, which was built at the end of the 18th century, close to the earth ramparts of the Riga city fortifications. Until the 1990s, the Jacob's Barracks were mostly used for the needs of various armies, until they were rebuilt. Now, the bright yellow buildings of Jacob's Barracks form an important accent in the face of Riga's old town, as if drawing a line between the breath of history and the noisy present. In front of Jacob's Barracks, the historical Powder Tower stands high and the Swedish Gate offers romantic views.
