Nowadays, the Soviet modernism is one of the most unexplored areas of the Russian and world architecture, which can cause the loss of objects of the cultural and artistic value. The public catering was an important branch of the national economy of the USSR. It led to the mass construction in the country. Purpose: The aim of this work is the multi-aspect analysis of the trends of Soviet modernism used in the design and implementation of public catering enterprises in Rostov-on-Don during the 1960s and 1980s. Design/methodology/approach : The scientific, journalistic literature and archival materials are used in the work. Full-scale studies are performed in relation to preserved buildings of canteens, cafes and restaurants in Rostov-on-Don, dating back to the period of Soviet modernism. Research findings: The soviet modernism is studied for the period of the 1960s and 1980s, and the author's reconstruction of partially or completely lost structures is suggested herein. Practical implications : The obtained results confirm the cultural and artistic value of the architectural objects of the Soviet modernism era and can be used for their preservation and further studies.
