Secluded, yet in the very center of the city, you can find the jazzy Bruklinski Bistro, with its regular clientèle, jazz bands and mighty vocals that keep you and your bourbon company. A perfect place to go by yourself, or with friends and feel like you just came out of a Woody Allen movie. I usually come here, sit outside and welcome the music to interfere with my conversations, or have a drink inside and enjoy it completely. There are regular jazz events held here, giving you the unique opportunity to get acquainted with the Skopje jazz scene.
Decorated to look like a Brooklyn loft, or bar, with its exposed brick and wooden elements, to me, it is the perfect combination of Brooklyn vibe and Skopje jazz and it all makes for an exceptional Skopje experience.
