"Beogradski manijak" in Belgrade gives everyone a much-needed respite. Everything about this bar is without a hint of pretense. Cheap booze, good music!

The old factory of IMR (or Industria Motora Rakovica) in Belgrade used to produce tractors... check out this old socialist façade white it's still there!

Makadam Belgrade collects various items made in Serbia, like T-shirts, cosmetics, books, puzzles etc under one roof. I can't just not buy things here.

Beyond books, Bookastore also offers a variety of products from local designers, such as jewelry, T-shirts, bags, posters, and more.

It's a place where you can sit on a bench, enjoy the beautiful surroundings, take a walk through the garden, learn about plants... Or attend a concert!

Bife Bar has an interesting interior, with a striking pigeon mosaic as the first thing you see when you walk in. Its trademark are the homemade shots!

Fazenda has a pleasant minimalist interior on 2 levels, with large windows that brighten the space. Visit for good coffee, brunch or events in the evening.

"Čarli", a miniature Belgrade bakery, has been in my neighborhood since the Yugoslavian '80s, making kifle day-in-day-out. The lovely ladies have stayed...

What makes the sandwiches at Babalu so exceptional are the various sauces that can be added—my favorite being honey-mustard.

An ice cream machine, one plastic chair next to it, a parasol over it, and a really pleasant person serving ice cream. Opt for a large or small portion.
