Izzi Cafe Skopje

Amazing simplicity

This one is easily one of my favorite spots in Skopje. At first glance, it may seem like a regular cafe, part of a small shopping mall close to the center, but once you have the first coffee there, it's immediately clear that it's different.

The regular, unpretentious clientèle, often consisting of those urban, casual types of people, along with the nice staff, the great coffee and the sunny location will always, always make me come back. 

Izzi puts up with you if you're dressed up and if you just came back from the gym. The atmosphere in the evenings is just as pleasant as it is during the day.

What's convenient about it is that it's located next to an Italian restaurant, where you can have a meal later, afterwards you can shop for groceries, cosmetics, sweets, even small pieces of furniture and call it a day, all within a radius of 50 meters.

The parking is validated if you spend MKD 100, or more, anywhere in the mall that Izzi Cafe is a part of.

About me Writer, blogger, columnist, coffee lover, frequent Paris dweller and in love with Skopje.

Why Skopje? Its soul and old spirit that still manage to walk hand in hand with the fast-pacing world. It's small, but it can easily be compared with its larger colleagues in terms of fashion, creative people and things to do, all the while making everyone feel like home. &#...

Speakeasy

Cocktails with a Macedonian twist

"Speakeasy" in Skopje isn't really illegal (in fact, maybe we should have stricter laws about alochol!) but it's this new type of retro bar I like so much.

Aero Club Skopje

Fly over the city

"Aero Club Skopje" is my preferred way of looking at Skopje. After all, 'it's perfect when you look at it from above!' Protip: remember to ride 'shotgun!'
