Hotel Beograd Cafe Belgrade

Third-wave coffee done right

"Belgrade's coffee scene is booming, with minimalist cafes dominating. Hotel Beograd Cafe stands out with its sunlit, warm decor and delicious coffee."

Lately, Belgrade has been experiencing a true boom of coffee shops popping up all around the city on a seemingly daily basis. While I like that there are now plenty of places to get a good quality cup of coffee all around the city, it seems that a lot of these places follow the well-established trend of a minimalist interior with clean lines and limited decor.

Hotel Beograd Cafe is one of my favorite exceptions to this trend — it is a recently opened, modern and minimalist coffee shop, but done right. Whenever I visit this place it is bathed in sunlight, its big windows allowing the natural light to shine through its tastefully decorated interior. The place is almost picture-perfect, with little details that break the white walls and light wood furniture with splashes of colors, and that add a warmth to the place, which goes really well with their coffee, which is, of course, delicious.

One thing I also love about Hotel Beograd Cafe is the people you meet there. Every time I visit, I'm greeted by a different group of people of all ages and backgrounds, both local and foreign, more often than not, with a cute dog waiting patiently for their owner to finish their cup. Everyone comes here for the same reason — to drink a quality cup of coffee in a relaxing and bright space and recharge for the rest of the day.

Dobra Pljeskavica

Mile's True Pljeskavica

Pljeskavicas are like Serbian burgers, but much bigger and tastier. Mile makes some amazing pljeskavica, some of the best in Belgrade in my opinion...
