Blokić Belgrade

Coffee in a sea of concrete

Sava from Belgrade

"Between the long stretch of stepped concrete giants hides Cafe Blokić, a tastefully decorated café, almost exclusively frequented by locals."

If you are into brutalist architecture and have researched places to explore in Belgrade, you might have stumbled upon blocks 61, 62, 63 and 64 – a nearly 2 km long stretch of stepped concrete giants marking the western end of New Belgrade. If you can get past the initial punch of greyness, you'll find that these buildings and the beautiful green areas between them offer some pretty cool spots to explore, one of which is Blokić (Serbian for 'little block'), a coffee shop tucked into the ground floor of a huge concrete residential building.

Blokić is one of those places that I stumbled upon by chance, walking around block 64 and enjoying a rare winter sunny day. The place is well hidden, small, but cozy and tastefully decorated. I was greeted by the friendly barista and got the chance to pet a cute four-legged neighbour while waiting for my coffee. The coffee itself is excellent, and the place offers plenty of milk alternatives for those who prefer their drink dairy-free.

Cafe Blokić is one of those places that is almost exclusively frequented by locals. Its location is slightly out of the way for the average tourist, but, as mentioned, it is well worth a stop if you are doing some urban exploring in the area. After getting your caffeine fix, head on over to TC Piramida nearby to do some alternative shopping.

Belgrade Spotter Sava

Hi! I'm Sava. I was born and raised in Belgrade, and have spent a good chunk of my life exploring and learning about the city I grew up in. I'm a doctor by profession, and I spend most of my free time either reading about my hometown or meeting up with friends for a coffee, usually on a quest to find a new favorite place to hang out at. I am most fascinated by stories from people who also grew up in Belgrade, and who each have a different place in the city they love most. It's really fun to find out about new places popping up all the time, especially when you think you've seen it...

Ljutić

Backyard coolness

"Ljutić" Belgrade is hidden and there's little to announce that it's an ever-growing popular spot. But it's a low profile bar, and I love it for it.

Chillton

Chill at will

"Chillton" is not yet another classic Belgrade apartment club. The atmosphere is shabby, chilled, completely unpretentious. You can be yourself here...
