Travel Cafe Dobrodruh Bratislava

Adventure in the air

Lenka from Bratislava

About me After living in France, UK and Germany for a couple of years, I moved back to my city in 2012 and keep rediscovering it ever since. I love exploring local history, learning about urban planning and design and looking at the city as a living organism. I would like to write more about places outside of the centre of Bratislava, where tourists rarely tread, such as Bratisl...
""Travel Cafe Dobrodruh" is a secret gem in Bratislava. This place seeps with holiday mood from faraway lands; it's dedicated to adventurers and good mates!"

Located outside of the city centre, a hop from the nearest tram stop, this cosy cafe is a secret gem in the neighbourhood. Dobrodruh looks like an oasis in the concrete desert, where you can sip tea or coffee while preparing your next expedition. There is Wi-Fi and enough sockets for everyone.

This place seeps with holiday mood and faraway lands: props from expeditions, a large map of South America on the wall, travel guides on the bookshelves (including Antarctica), photo books, coffee bean bags hanging from the ceiling and their own t-shirts for fans. It's dedicated to travellers and if you are not one yet, surely this is the place to get in the mood.

Their menu will make you travel with their specialty coffee from all over the world. Don't hesitate to ask the helpful staff for recommendations, I really liked the Colombian kind. There's also local wine, beer from small breweries (Stupavar, Jam) and a wide selection of tea. Small snacks go well with all sorts of drinks - yummy cakes or marinated cheese, prepared locally.

The passion for travelling is present almost daily with photo or video presentations by real adventurers, so make sure check their Facebook page beforehand as it can get quite busy on those nights.

Check the notice board with messages from fellow travellers who buy or sell something travel related or who are looking for a travel mate – you see, Dobrodruh doesn't only mean adventurer, it literally means a good mate.

I love exploring local history, learning about urban planning and design and looking at the city as a living organism. I would like to write more about places outside of the centre of Bratislava, where tourists rarely tread, such as Bratislava's suburbs, each unique with their own history and cool places. Why Bratislava? Bratislava has an ideal location. You can cross the border of four different countries within a da...

Buchtáreň

Lovely traditional Slovak buns

"Buchtáreň" is the best thing that could possibly happen in Bratislava. It's the first place to offer the traditional Slovak steam dumplings that we love.

Kapitulská street

A medieval walk

"Kapitulská street" is one of my favorite places in Bratislava because it's so unspoilt and underdeveloped, an authentic street in the Old Town.
