Taquitos Bandidos Zagreb

Mexican street midnight snacks

Tamara from Zagreb

""Taquitos Bandidos" in Zagreb has set the new standards for street food in the city. I definitely recommend trying their vegetarian quesadillas..."

One has to admit - Zagreb is not big on street food. If you find yourself hungry in the city center but with no time or money to go to a restaurant for a proper meal, the choice is usually limited to grilled minced meat in all its varieties, bakeries and kebab bars. And there's nothing wrong with any of that, especially after a good night out. But Taquitos Bandidos has contributed to filling a very large market gap in the center of town and it seems like others have picked up on the trend. It's quite unbelievable that Mexican food is a discovery to anyone, but the place is a real delight in Radićeva street.

Tacitos Bandidos is a tiny and eccentrically decorated shop with almost no seating area inside. Anyhow, having your Croatian-Mexican snack at the tall tables on the other side of the traffic-free Radićeva is a much bigger delight. Although the taquitos are the obvious attraction of the little street food restaurant, I'll go ahead and suggest you go for the vegetarian quesadillas. They're creamy, filling and come with a variety of homemade sauces to pick from.

Zagreb Spotter Tamara

About me I was born but not raised in Zagreb and moved back to the city in 2010 when I started my university studies. I finished my Master’s degree in Education and Sociology in the meantime and am currently working for an NGO as a project manager and youth worker. While education is my main professional interest, in my free time I love balancing out the pragmatism of my day-job with reading, philosophy and expressing myself through writing and music. If I had the time, I’d spend all my money on travel and activities in the outdoors. Why Zagreb Although it...

Old funicular with amazing view

"Uspinjača" is one of the symbols of Zagreb. It's the first and oldest public transport and the world's shortest funicular ride. So nostalgic & romantic!

"Tunel Grič" in Zagreb was built during WWII. I don't like small, narrow spaces, but this tunnel doesn't make me uncomfortable, only curious...
