👍👍 Polite staff and nice ambience! Sitting directly on the streets of Baščaršija and sipping the hot coffee brings out the feeling of old times. Hookah mix that they prepared for us was amazing blend of grape, watermelon, mint and raspberry, definitely worth trying! People often mention waiter, great, wine,

    Very unfriendly service, exploiting tourists. When we sat down and asked about payment options, the - generally disinterested - waiter told us he would accept both KM and EUR to the normal exchange rate. When we paid, he requested us to pay an additional 2€ of "provision" and was not open to other solutions. He was clearly trying to exploit the situation of tourists. In addition, the toilet was not clean and the coffee was rather average.

    Small cosy place in the Bascarsija. Better to go in groups. Solo travellers like I was might get bored.

    They don't have a menu with prices (??). They have only 0,33 beer. Place is shabby and not very clean. The waiter wasn't very professional and didn't care a lot about our needs (for exemple, we wanted him to bring more coal for our hookah, he didn't). Shisha quality was average.

    Bosnian coffee is ok but the fresh juice is really bad and the prices tooooooo HIGH!

    Very sad experience. I asked for a glass of sparkling wine, they didn’t have any, so I ordered a glass of house white wine. Everything was strictly from the menu. The wine was not amazing, but I didn’t expect much from a house wine, so I was happy with it, thinking if I should get another one or not (cause Wi-Fi is almost not working there and I needed to send some messages). At this moment the waiter asked me to pay in a quite rude manner in the middle of my first glass and charged almost twice more than house wine was in the menu. I mean I understand that his shift could be over and they ran out of all cheap wine. But the way how it’s done - you explain it to the guest. If he politely asked me to pay because he needs to leave, but his colleagues would help me if I need something that will be TOTALLY normal. But I just felt that they kicked me out and asked to overpay. Strange place.

    Comfy chairs but don’t expect your half liter draft to be a half liter. See pic. Waitstaff seems to be preoccupied with something other than taking and fulfilling orders.

    What a great café! Prices are from 2-8 KM (1-4 €). The coffee comes with rahatluk (those red and yellow cubes), and they are very good. The location of the café is very good.

    Bad drinks and even worse shisha. We waited for it 30 mins and it was just bad. No taste, just choking on smoke. Noisy and dusty interior. The waiter was trying to be helpful, but overall the level of service was simply terrible
