If you are wondering where to drink a great cup of coffee, here you can find the selection of coffee places in Belgrade that offer excellent beans and flavors. And along with coffee, most of them also offer a pleasant atmosphere, friendly staff and wonderful ambient.
Coffee culture in Belgrade is similar to one in France, if I’d have to compare it with any other country. Everyone is taking time with it and it’s a true social activity, which makes people bond while savoring the nice cup of coffee.
In Belgrade, like in other big cities there are coffee chains such as Starbucks, or local/regional ones like Kafeterija, Cafe&Factory, Coffee Dream etc, but this article is focused on local neighbourhood cafes. Nevertheless, considering the number of amazing coffee places in Belgrade, it’s hard to select only a few. But, let’s start with some suggestions you’ll love.
