Radost Skopje

Ice cream goldie

Boban from Skopje

About me An Engineer with a passion for sports and travel. A foodie who never sleeps, loves to hang out in restaurants and bars with the crew and to go clubbing later in the night. I’m a huge sports fan, football, basketball, tennis, NFL, skiing, you name it. Been playing all of them too. Love to travel, to experience different nations, cultures and traditions. Why ...
""Radost" in Skopje is translated into 'happiness' and this exactly what I feel when I get ice cream from this shop under the 40-degree Celsius sun..."

Summer is here. And as the temperature rises, the desire for ice cream grows each and every day. So you know we've got you covered, right..?

Newly opened in the downtown center, you will easily find "Radost" on Maksim Gorki street, just a couple of minutes from the Main Square. It's the street with Cherry blossom trees, so you can't miss it. The name literally translated means Happiness, and that is exactly what this place will bring to your mouth, while you're sweating under the 40 degrees Celsius Skopje sun. 

You can pick vanilla or chocolate ice cream and combine it with dozens of different toppings, biscuits, sprinkles (cherry, mango, caramel, to name a few). Get a cup of coffee while you're at it, and get that energy boost midway through the day. The place has only a couple of tables, so it's basically To Go, but you will find numerous benches only a few metres away. So, enjoy!!

I’m a huge sports fan, football, basketball, tennis, NFL, skiing, you name it. Been playing all of them too. Love to travel, to experience different nations, cultures and traditions. Why Skopje? This is the place where I was born and raised and lived all my life. It has the Buzz of some big Metropolis, but in essence it is still a very small city. You can go out all by yourself ...

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!'

Not only a shop—it’s a story, a community

"Badu Bar" is easily one of the best places in West Skopje. They have awesome hip hop parties and DJ sets here & the view through the windows is amazing...
