Vintage Sofia Sofia
Vintage style dresses
Vintage Sofia is a small shop a one minute walk from the famous Vitosha Street.
The owners are Ilka and Todor - admirers of retro fashion, style and culture.
Vintage Sofia is for unique designed clothes and accessories created in small quantities. The fabrics are gorgeous - colourful, with floral, animal or other funny prints.
Useful tip: check their Facebook page before you visit the shop. Usually they upload photos of the available stock for that exact day. There are no more than 10-15 dresses but online you can see a great variety of clothes and you can always place an order (it usually takes about 2 weeks).
Ilka and Todor create a couple of seasonal collections during the year, which are presented with a beautiful photo session, so I recommend you check them out on their official site.
Also if you are into Dr. Martens shoes, you may find a couple of pairs there, as well as other accessories and jewellery.

Q-ftetaria
Food classic not to be missed!
The meatballs are usually served with cabbage salad, lyutenitsa dip & fries. As a Bulgarian, I find kyufte to be a comforting dish that never disappoints.
