Why students go
Together with bul. Ruse 6, this is the Life branch closest to the university — the everyday shop for most students living in the area. Open from 07:00 to 22:00 every day, so it covers both the early-lecture coffee run and the after-lectures dinner shop.
Life is the Pleven-based chain, so shopping here supports a local business rather than an international one — prices are competitive either way.
Other Life branches

Good to know
- Kaufland, Lidl and Billa are the international alternatives for big weekly shops.
- Fresh produce is usually better and cheaper at the city market.
- Bring your own bag — plastic bags are charged for.
