The price of taxis is what most tourists are afraid of when arriving in an unknown city.
We want to help in preventing you from overpaying for short rides, just because you may not
know about our city and language.Most taxi drivers are honest people, but there are some
predators, who wait for“victims”at the rail stations and airport, and charge two or three
times the going rate.
INTRODUCTION

PROBLEMS
Overcharging by illegal drivers, the biggest problem, impairs the reputation not
only of honest, hard-working drivers, but also the honest Serbians, because the taxi
driver is one of the first persons you meet in our country.
Cab drivers waiting to“rip you off”are often found at bus and rail stations and taxi
stands near nightclubs, shopping malls, big concerts and mass events.
Illegal taxis look like legal ones.
The registration number and the
taximeter are the differences! In
an illegal taxi, the meter keeps
rolling over! If you see something
unusual, tell the driver to stop
and get out of the vehicle. If the
driver is at all threatening, just
call the police! Don’t listen to
excuses, con jobs or tall tales.
Be especially wary of legal drivers calling themselves“independent taxi drivers”.
They are easy to recognize by the white sign with only“taxi”written on it. They offer
you expensive rides in expensive cars.
Such vehicles may cost you 30% more than a ride in a cab belonging to a taxi
association mentioned above.
There isn’t any real protection and you
will have to look out yourselves, the best
option probably is to buy local sim card as
soon you arrive to Belgrade. Price is 200
dinars (less then two euros) and using it
will save you money even if you use it just
for calling a taxi!
CONTACT
The safest way to get a legal taxi is by telephoning. Every taxi association has
dispatchers, who will send you the nearest car, generally within five minutes. Just
tell the operator the address where you want the taxi to pick you up, and you will be
told how soon the taxi will arrive.
Contact phones of the biggest associations are:
All legal taxis have registration plates ending with“TX”
PRICES
Taxi rides have three rates, tariff 1, 2, and 3, which are charged as follows:
TARIFF I – charged from 06.00 – 22.00h, city area
TARIFF II – charged from 22.00-06.00h, on Sundays and holidays, city area
TARIFF III – charged to drive outside the city
For more information about price (which can be changed),
please follow this link.
http://www.beograd.rs/cms/view.php?id=201690
During the ride, look at the taximeter, always visible to the customer, which shows which tariff
is being charged. Keep an eye on the price of the ride. If the driver didn’t turn on the meter or
if it’s turning over too fast, mention it to the driver.
In some taxi companies luggage does cost extra!

Public transportation in Belgrade consists of bus, trolleybus and tram transportation.
Belgrade doesn’t have a subway yet, so this is the fastest and cheapest way of mass
transportation. The city is well covered by bus and trolley service, so you can get to almost
any destination using public transportation.
Many lines start in the city, the biggest hub of public transportation, especially the following
stations: ZELENI VENAC. TRG REPUBLIKE, TRG DIMITRIJA TUCOVICA and STUDENTSKI TRG.
Public transportation is divided in day and night transportation.
Day lines run between 4:00 AM and midnight
Night lines run between midnight and 4.00 AM and run hourly.
Fares differ, depending on whether you buy them on the vehicle or at a kiosk, and
depend on the time of day. Night fares are bought on the vehicle.
Single ticket day transportation, on the vehicle – 145 RSD
Single ticket day transportation, at a kiosk – 72 RSD
Single ticket night transportation – 120 RSD
You can buy tickets at kiosks all over Belgrade. If you don’t
live in Belgrade, buy a PAPER UNPERSONALIZED CARD,
which costs 40 RSD
This card works on a“prepaid”system and you pay,
charging up the card, immediately after buying it.
When the card is depleted, you can charge it up
again, for up to 600 RSD, or a maximum of 8 rides.
If you are in Belgrade often, you can buy PLASTIC
UNPERSONALIZED CARD which costs 250 RSD. You can charge this
card in any amount and however often you wish.
Any driver can also sell you a single ticket.
The driver will print and charge the ticket at your request.
+381 64 194 89 07BELGRADEAPARTMENT.NET
Verification procedure of the fare is very simple:
1. Enter the vehicle at the marked entry
2. Swipe the card on the electronic terminal next to the door
3. If you have done it right you will get a sound confirmation and see a green light on the
terminal, confirming the amount of credit remaining on the card. If there is a problem, you
will see a red light and hear a reject tone.
TICKET CONTROL
Control officers equipped with ticket control devices patrol transit vehicles.
If you haven’t swiped your ticket, you will have to buy an EXTRA TICKET for 3000 RSD. If you
don’t have the money with you, the officer will ask you for identification, and you will be fined
and ejected from the vehicle. You can pay the fine within 15 days, or a judicial proceeding will
be started against you.
If you can’t pay the fine, it is likely to be forgiven. The number of people accruing these kinds
of fines is huge, and the number of payments small, so the possibility of going to court is
minimal.
City Traffic and Bus Plus, because of this situation, often offer people bargains and lesser fines
as it’s the only way to get people to pay them.
Even though it’s not ideal, public transport offers decent, priceworthy service. New
trolleybuses and trams are very comfortable and new buses are coming into service.
Regrettably, some older buses that shouldn’t ever even pass safety inspection are still in
service.
Since the introduction of the“yellow lane”, public transport in rush hours is far faster than
using your own car. Since people that go to work by public transportation don’t have
a problem with parking, they can get to work faster and more inexpensively than their
colleagues who come by car.
If only the outstanding fines were paid, the quality of service would probably be much better!

Parking in Belgrade is becoming a big problem. More, better cars, on the streets cause traffic
jams and make searching for parking spots very difficult.
To address the problem and discourage traffic and long term parking in the city center, the
Parking Service decided to split the city into zones. Also, this way, people who live in the city
center can find a parking spot.
But Belgrade doesn’t have a metro, and busses and trams are disorganized, so a great number
of Belgrade residents still drive into the city center. Belgrade life is harder if you can’t finish
your business in the city center in an hour, two, or three.
PARKING ZONES
Parking in the city center has been split in three
zones:
•	 RED –retention in red zone is allowed
for 60 minutes.
•	 YELLOW - retention in yellow zone is
allowed for 120 minutes.
•	 GREEN - retention in green zone is allowed
for 180 minutes.
Charges apply from 7h until 21h every work day
and from 7h until 14h on Saturday.
On Sundays parking is free.
Payment for parking can be made by text messaging to the
number written on the signpost for that zone. When you open
a new message, depending from zone in which you are located,
you should send:
•	 RED –your registration number on 9111
•	 YELLOW –your registration number on 9112
•	 GREEN –your registration number on 9113.
If you’ve sent a message right, you will get a conformation that the payment has been done.
Save this message, because it’s the only evidence of your payment.
If the time you paid for passes, you must send another massage to extend your parking time.
You will receive a message with a notice that your parking has been expired.
Price for parking depends on where you parked your car:
•	 RED – 56 RSD = 0.46 Eur
•	 YELLOW – 38 RSD = 0, 31 EUR
•	 GREEN – 31 RSD = 0.25 EUR
This amount will be charged trough your phone bill!
+381 64 194 89 07HOSTELCAPTAIN.COM
If you don’t have a mobile phone, you can
buy a parking card at a kiosk or from a
uniformed Parking Service Worker, wearing
a hat, badge, and carrying a PDA device.
Parking Service Workers are hard to catch,
because they are moving all the time!
When you buy a parking ticket, you have to
fill it out and put it on your dashboard! For
each zone there are parking tickets. Parking
ticket should be filled out with year, month,
day, hour and minute when you started your
parking. The best place to put parking ticket
is on your dashboard, where it will be visible through the windshield of your car.
Parking in one of the public garages is safe but very expensive way of parking,
and it cost 50-100 RSD = 0.4 – 0.83 EUR for each started our.
FINES
If you forgot to send a text, or to buy a parking ticket to pay for parking, a supplemental
charge will be on your windshield. (1870 RSD = 15.58 EUR) This ticket allows you parking for
24 hours from the time written on the ticket.
Supplemental tickets should be paid within 8 days; otherwise you will have legal
consequences. They will sue you, and you will pay the ticket and court costs.
If you parked your car properly, on a marked parking spot, your vehicle will not be towed
away. If you parked on spots reserved by a yellow marking, in a green area, zebra stripes…
your vehicle will most likely be towed. The penalty for inappropriate parking and towing is
around 90 EUR.
SHORTCUTS
In theory this system should give satisfying results, make the lives of citizens easier and fill
the city’s coffers, but as in every system, there are loopholes.
Because the Parking Service is not provided by the police or border control, it is very difficult
for them to collect. Tickets are paid, in practice, only by conscientious citizens, or those
frightened by the lawyers of the Parking Service.
If your vehicle has foreign plates, just remove the ticket from front window and throw it away,
because there is no possibility of charging you in other countries. Because of this undefined
situation, Parking Service isn’t capable of taking action against people who don’t respect the
rules.
If this problem is solved, people who have
penalties will have problems, and because
of that many people decide to pay their
parking tickets, for: “it is better to pay
a little money now, than have bigger
problems later on…”

It is really hard to answer to this question cause there are so many places where you should
go and try some of our national specialties. However, you won’t go hungry during your visit.
The offerings is wide ranging, from kiosks to buy burgers, sandwiches, hot-dogs, pancakes,
pizza…. to traditional Serbian“kafana”or restaurants with international cuisine. One thing’s
for sure; nowhere in the world will you find a better price/quality relationship, between first
class service, large portions and fantastic ambiance with prices on the reasonable end of the
European standard.
In all my writings, I’ve tried to be objective and point out all the good points of Belgrade, but
here, as someone who knows how to enjoy good food I’m offering you my best intelligence.
Serbian cuisine is meat-based, so if you are a vegetarian you may have a problem finding a
place that suits you.
Let’s start when you got up and go to breakfast.
BAKERIES
The least expensive option for breakfast is a bakery. Bakeries are practically everywhere in
the city center. For your breakfast you must try BUREK and yogurt. BUREK is a type of pie,
made with meat, cheese, mushrooms, apples, cherries or simply pastry. This high calorie
breakfast will keep you full until late afternoon.
In a bakery you can also buy bread, rolls, pastry, donuts, etc., and you’ll find
it hard to spend more than 2 Euros per person

The New Palace was the residence of the Karadjordjevic family, which ruled Serbia during 19th
and 20th
century. Today it is the office of Serbian president.
These palaces are next to each other.
By following this route, you will pass by many interesting buildings, parks, fountains
and you will walk through some of the most beautiful streets in Belgrade.
If you stay more than few days in Belgrade,
you can take the time to see many other sights as well!

STARA HERCEGOVINA – Carigradska 36 - 44.819008,20.47434 (google maps).

location and good food. A legendary ”kafana”. Even though there are many choices on the
menu, the -ćevapi na kajmaku- are a particular favorite!
Prices vary, but for a complete meal: soup, salad, main course, desert with drinks, you will pay
around 15 Euro per person.
Next to these pubs, Belgraders will recommend others, and almost every city guide will
recommend some of the“Skadarlija’s”kafanas. The oldest one is“?”(Znak Pitanja, or Question
mark) ...
FAST FOOD
If you decide to have breakfast or a snack in a fast food restaurant, you will face a great vari-
ety of different food, including hamburgers, gyros, hot-dogs, pancakes, pizzas or sandwiches.
There you will be able to eat for 2-3 Euros per person. Among the fast food restaurants you
will find chains such as McDonald’s and KFC as well as lots of places with Chinese food.
“KAFANA”(PUBS)
A kafana is a place where you can always buy a good meal and drinks. It’s like a pub, but in a
Serbian way. During the night most kafanas have live music and great atmosphere! Kafanas
with live music are most often found in Skadarlija, the old bohemian part of town. All kafanas
have similar cuisine and prices. But all“kafanas”are not alike. A few serve fantastic food,
with large portions, great service and atmosphere – friendly and relaxed. Three kafanas have
boasted great quality and service for years:
ČUBURA – Makenzijeva bb, Gradic Pejton - 44.797536,20.474349 (google maps)
The best barbeque in Belgrade. Great ambience, in the heart of Vračar. If you decide on this
“kafana”, be sure to try the smoked pork. (dimljena vešalica)

form of entertainment. For 2-3 Euros you can sit in the coffee shop for a couple of hours and
enjoy talking with friends or reading a newspaper and relaxing from work.

If you are coming to Belgrade by bus or train, there are 3 ways to reach the apartment:
•	 Taxi
•	 Public transportation – Tram number 2
•	 By foot
1. If you decide to take a taxi, be very careful! The worst kind of taxi drivers is waiting for you at the
train or bus station. There is a huge possibility that you will pay much more than a regular price.
2. Tram number 2 is cheap and good option since the ride will be very short! Depending on which

Guide for tourist in Belgrade

  • 1.
  • 2. +381 64 194 89 07BELGRADEAPARTMENT.NET • BEOGRADSKI • ZUTI • PINK • MAXISS • PLAVI • GOLD • ALFA • BELL • LUX The price of taxis is what most tourists are afraid of when arriving in an unknown city.

  • 3. +381 64 194 89 07APARTMENTBELGRADE.COM PROBLEMS Overcharging by illegal drivers, the biggest problem, impairs the reputation not only of honest, hard-working drivers, but also the honest Serbians, because the taxi driver is one of the first persons you meet in our country. Cab drivers waiting to“rip you off”are often found at bus and rail stations and taxi stands near nightclubs, shopping malls, big concerts and mass events. Illegal taxis look like legal ones. The registration number and the taximeter are the differences! In an illegal taxi, the meter keeps rolling over! If you see something unusual, tell the driver to stop and get out of the vehicle. If the driver is at all threatening, just call the police! Don’t listen to excuses, con jobs or tall tales. Be especially wary of legal drivers calling themselves“independent taxi drivers”. They are easy to recognize by the white sign with only“taxi”written on it. They offer you expensive rides in expensive cars. Such vehicles may cost you 30% more than a ride in a cab belonging to a taxi association mentioned above. There isn’t any real protection and you will have to look out yourselves, the best option probably is to buy local sim card as soon you arrive to Belgrade. Price is 200 dinars (less then two euros) and using it will save you money even if you use it just for calling a taxi! CONTACT The safest way to get a legal taxi is by telephoning. Every taxi association has dispatchers, who will send you the nearest car, generally within five minutes. Just tell the operator the address where you want the taxi to pick you up, and you will be told how soon the taxi will arrive. Contact phones of the biggest associations are: All legal taxis have registration plates ending with“TX” PRICES Taxi rides have three rates, tariff 1, 2, and 3, which are charged as follows: TARIFF I – charged from 06.00 – 22.00h, city area TARIFF II – charged from 22.00-06.00h, on Sundays and holidays, city area TARIFF III – charged to drive outside the city For more information about price (which can be changed), please follow this link. http://www.beograd.rs/cms/view.php?id=201690 During the ride, look at the taximeter, always visible to the customer, which shows which tariff is being charged. Keep an eye on the price of the ride. If the driver didn’t turn on the meter or if it’s turning over too fast, mention it to the driver. In some taxi companies luggage does cost extra! • BEOGRADSKI: +381 1 9801 • ZUTI: +381 1 9802 • PINK: +381 1 9803 • MAXISS: +381 1 9804 • PLAVI: +381 1 9805 • GOLD: +381 1 9806 • ALFA: +381 1 9807 • BELL: +381 1 9808 • LUX: +381 11 30 33 123
  • 4. +381 64 194 89 07HOSTELCAPTAIN.COM Public transportation in Belgrade consists of bus, trolleybus and tram transportation. Belgrade doesn’t have a subway yet, so this is the fastest and cheapest way of mass transportation. The city is well covered by bus and trolley service, so you can get to almost any destination using public transportation. Many lines start in the city, the biggest hub of public transportation, especially the following stations: ZELENI VENAC. TRG REPUBLIKE, TRG DIMITRIJA TUCOVICA and STUDENTSKI TRG. Public transportation is divided in day and night transportation. Day lines run between 4:00 AM and midnight Night lines run between midnight and 4.00 AM and run hourly. Fares differ, depending on whether you buy them on the vehicle or at a kiosk, and depend on the time of day. Night fares are bought on the vehicle. Single ticket day transportation, on the vehicle – 145 RSD Single ticket day transportation, at a kiosk – 72 RSD Single ticket night transportation – 120 RSD You can buy tickets at kiosks all over Belgrade. If you don’t live in Belgrade, buy a PAPER UNPERSONALIZED CARD, which costs 40 RSD This card works on a“prepaid”system and you pay, charging up the card, immediately after buying it. When the card is depleted, you can charge it up again, for up to 600 RSD, or a maximum of 8 rides. If you are in Belgrade often, you can buy PLASTIC UNPERSONALIZED CARD which costs 250 RSD. You can charge this card in any amount and however often you wish. Any driver can also sell you a single ticket. The driver will print and charge the ticket at your request.
  • 5. +381 64 194 89 07BELGRADEAPARTMENT.NET Verification procedure of the fare is very simple: 1. Enter the vehicle at the marked entry 2. Swipe the card on the electronic terminal next to the door 3. If you have done it right you will get a sound confirmation and see a green light on the terminal, confirming the amount of credit remaining on the card. If there is a problem, you will see a red light and hear a reject tone. TICKET CONTROL Control officers equipped with ticket control devices patrol transit vehicles. If you haven’t swiped your ticket, you will have to buy an EXTRA TICKET for 3000 RSD. If you don’t have the money with you, the officer will ask you for identification, and you will be fined and ejected from the vehicle. You can pay the fine within 15 days, or a judicial proceeding will be started against you. If you can’t pay the fine, it is likely to be forgiven. The number of people accruing these kinds of fines is huge, and the number of payments small, so the possibility of going to court is minimal. City Traffic and Bus Plus, because of this situation, often offer people bargains and lesser fines as it’s the only way to get people to pay them. Even though it’s not ideal, public transport offers decent, priceworthy service. New trolleybuses and trams are very comfortable and new buses are coming into service. Regrettably, some older buses that shouldn’t ever even pass safety inspection are still in service. Since the introduction of the“yellow lane”, public transport in rush hours is far faster than using your own car. Since people that go to work by public transportation don’t have a problem with parking, they can get to work faster and more inexpensively than their colleagues who come by car. If only the outstanding fines were paid, the quality of service would probably be much better!
  • 6. +381 64 194 89 07APARTMENTBELGRADE.COM Parking in Belgrade is becoming a big problem. More, better cars, on the streets cause traffic jams and make searching for parking spots very difficult. To address the problem and discourage traffic and long term parking in the city center, the Parking Service decided to split the city into zones. Also, this way, people who live in the city center can find a parking spot. But Belgrade doesn’t have a metro, and busses and trams are disorganized, so a great number of Belgrade residents still drive into the city center. Belgrade life is harder if you can’t finish your business in the city center in an hour, two, or three. PARKING ZONES Parking in the city center has been split in three zones: • RED –retention in red zone is allowed for 60 minutes. • YELLOW - retention in yellow zone is allowed for 120 minutes. • GREEN - retention in green zone is allowed for 180 minutes. Charges apply from 7h until 21h every work day and from 7h until 14h on Saturday. On Sundays parking is free. Payment for parking can be made by text messaging to the number written on the signpost for that zone. When you open a new message, depending from zone in which you are located, you should send: • RED –your registration number on 9111 • YELLOW –your registration number on 9112 • GREEN –your registration number on 9113. If you’ve sent a message right, you will get a conformation that the payment has been done. Save this message, because it’s the only evidence of your payment. If the time you paid for passes, you must send another massage to extend your parking time. You will receive a message with a notice that your parking has been expired. Price for parking depends on where you parked your car: • RED – 56 RSD = 0.46 Eur • YELLOW – 38 RSD = 0, 31 EUR • GREEN – 31 RSD = 0.25 EUR This amount will be charged trough your phone bill!
  • 7. +381 64 194 89 07HOSTELCAPTAIN.COM If you don’t have a mobile phone, you can buy a parking card at a kiosk or from a uniformed Parking Service Worker, wearing a hat, badge, and carrying a PDA device. Parking Service Workers are hard to catch, because they are moving all the time! When you buy a parking ticket, you have to fill it out and put it on your dashboard! For each zone there are parking tickets. Parking ticket should be filled out with year, month, day, hour and minute when you started your parking. The best place to put parking ticket is on your dashboard, where it will be visible through the windshield of your car. Parking in one of the public garages is safe but very expensive way of parking, and it cost 50-100 RSD = 0.4 – 0.83 EUR for each started our. FINES If you forgot to send a text, or to buy a parking ticket to pay for parking, a supplemental charge will be on your windshield. (1870 RSD = 15.58 EUR) This ticket allows you parking for 24 hours from the time written on the ticket. Supplemental tickets should be paid within 8 days; otherwise you will have legal consequences. They will sue you, and you will pay the ticket and court costs. If you parked your car properly, on a marked parking spot, your vehicle will not be towed away. If you parked on spots reserved by a yellow marking, in a green area, zebra stripes… your vehicle will most likely be towed. The penalty for inappropriate parking and towing is around 90 EUR. SHORTCUTS In theory this system should give satisfying results, make the lives of citizens easier and fill the city’s coffers, but as in every system, there are loopholes. Because the Parking Service is not provided by the police or border control, it is very difficult for them to collect. Tickets are paid, in practice, only by conscientious citizens, or those frightened by the lawyers of the Parking Service. If your vehicle has foreign plates, just remove the ticket from front window and throw it away, because there is no possibility of charging you in other countries. Because of this undefined situation, Parking Service isn’t capable of taking action against people who don’t respect the rules. If this problem is solved, people who have penalties will have problems, and because of that many people decide to pay their parking tickets, for: “it is better to pay a little money now, than have bigger problems later on…”
  • 8. +381 64 194 89 07BELGRADEAPARTMENT.NET 1. KALEMEGDAN 44.824236,20.451175 (google maps) Medieval fortress and the biggest park right in the center of the city. Inside Kalemegdan you can see the Army Museum, the Observatory, the Ruzica church, the Zoo, historical monuments, underground passages, and basketball and tennis courts.

CROSSROADS OF KRALJA PETRA AND KNEZA SIME MARKOVICA STREETS 44.817661, 20.452077 (google maps) At this crossroads, you will see important things on all 4 corners. • Serbian Patriarchate, • The Cathedral Church, • The Residence of Princess Ljubica • The oldest kafana in Belgrade – Question Mark. 3.REPUBLIC SQUARE 44.816261,20.460252 (google maps) Main City Square! This is the most popular meeting point for Belgraders and where to find the National Theater, National Museum and the Prince Mihailo monuments. It’s not easy to choose a few highlights to see during your Belgrade stay. But since your time is limited, why not start with the city center, and enjoy a small taste of Belgrade’s beautiful attractions.
  • 9. +381 64 194 89 07APARTMENTBELGRADE.COM 6. SAINT SAVA TEMPLE 44.797794,20.468381 (google maps) The second biggest Orthodox temple in the world is dedicated to the first Serbian patriarch. It is located in Karadorde park. 7. SKC - 44.80629,20.464733 (google maps) This is one of our best-known sights and a meeting point for young people.

  • 10. +381 64 194 89 07HOSTELCAPTAIN.COM It is really hard to answer to this question cause there are so many places where you should go and try some of our national specialties. However, you won’t go hungry during your visit. The offerings is wide ranging, from kiosks to buy burgers, sandwiches, hot-dogs, pancakes, pizza…. to traditional Serbian“kafana”or restaurants with international cuisine. One thing’s for sure; nowhere in the world will you find a better price/quality relationship, between first class service, large portions and fantastic ambiance with prices on the reasonable end of the European standard. In all my writings, I’ve tried to be objective and point out all the good points of Belgrade, but here, as someone who knows how to enjoy good food I’m offering you my best intelligence. Serbian cuisine is meat-based, so if you are a vegetarian you may have a problem finding a place that suits you. Let’s start when you got up and go to breakfast. BAKERIES The least expensive option for breakfast is a bakery. Bakeries are practically everywhere in the city center. For your breakfast you must try BUREK and yogurt. BUREK is a type of pie, made with meat, cheese, mushrooms, apples, cherries or simply pastry. This high calorie breakfast will keep you full until late afternoon. In a bakery you can also buy bread, rolls, pastry, donuts, etc., and you’ll find it hard to spend more than 2 Euros per person 8. OLD AND NEW PALACE – 44.810499,20.462635 (google maps) The Old Palace was the residence of the Obrenovic Family, which ruled Serbia during part of the 19th century. Today, it houses the City Assembly. The New Palace was the residence of the Karadjordjevic family, which ruled Serbia during 19th and 20th century. Today it is the office of Serbian president. These palaces are next to each other. By following this route, you will pass by many interesting buildings, parks, fountains and you will walk through some of the most beautiful streets in Belgrade. If you stay more than few days in Belgrade, you can take the time to see many other sights as well!
  • 11. +381 64 194 89 07BELGRADEAPARTMENT.NET STARA HERCEGOVINA – Carigradska 36 - 44.819008,20.47434 (google maps). A“Kafana”with great food and service. A large number of tables. No matter what you try on the menu, you won’t make a mistake, but don’t miss out on the pork knuckles! (svinjska kolenica). KALENIĆ – Milesevska 2 - 44.801479,20.476023 (google maps) This place has a long tradition and special charm, with a nice outdoor seating area, a great location and good food. A legendary ”kafana”. Even though there are many choices on the menu, the -ćevapi na kajmaku- are a particular favorite! Prices vary, but for a complete meal: soup, salad, main course, desert with drinks, you will pay around 15 Euro per person. Next to these pubs, Belgraders will recommend others, and almost every city guide will recommend some of the“Skadarlija’s”kafanas. The oldest one is“?”(Znak Pitanja, or Question mark) ... FAST FOOD If you decide to have breakfast or a snack in a fast food restaurant, you will face a great vari- ety of different food, including hamburgers, gyros, hot-dogs, pancakes, pizzas or sandwiches. There you will be able to eat for 2-3 Euros per person. Among the fast food restaurants you will find chains such as McDonald’s and KFC as well as lots of places with Chinese food. “KAFANA”(PUBS) A kafana is a place where you can always buy a good meal and drinks. It’s like a pub, but in a Serbian way. During the night most kafanas have live music and great atmosphere! Kafanas with live music are most often found in Skadarlija, the old bohemian part of town. All kafanas have similar cuisine and prices. But all“kafanas”are not alike. A few serve fantastic food, with large portions, great service and atmosphere – friendly and relaxed. Three kafanas have boasted great quality and service for years: ČUBURA – Makenzijeva bb, Gradic Pejton - 44.797536,20.474349 (google maps) The best barbeque in Belgrade. Great ambience, in the heart of Vračar. If you decide on this “kafana”, be sure to try the smoked pork. (dimljena vešalica)
  • 12. +381 64 194 89 07APARTMENTBELGRADE.COM Iguana – Karadordeva 2-4 - 44.820051,20.448001 (google maps) Enjoy yourselves in a restaurant on the banks of the Sava, offering a whole different concept from most restaurants: food, wine and jazz! An extremely interesting and varied menu! At the end, for those who have a sweet tooth, treat yourselves to a fantastic“urma”cake! Price here depends on many factors. But all of these restaurants are worth the trip and the price! RESTAURANTS For lunch or dinner in a restaurant, it’s hard to make a mistake.
