Amelie

Amelie is a little pastry shop on a perfect spot, near the very main square. It's terrace is in a shadowy spot alongside the old city walls of Kaptol, one of the oldest parts of the city, dominated by the cathedral spires. Romantic decoration blends with the tastes so wonderfully.

Mountain top with a view of Zagreb

Sljeme

16

It takes most people just 2 hours to get to the top of the Medvednica mountain, meaning you don't have to be a hiking pro or anything to experience the magnificent view of Zagreb and nearby counties. You will sort of orientate once you get there. Romantic, healthy, educational and a different kind of day in Zagreb.

A most unusual garden

It has a tree house, it is in the garden and it is really unusual. Also it has a breakfast made of natural ingredients cause garden, just like its name says is really a garden. My favorites are freshly made juices and a really good espresso. One things is to consider, it is really difficult to find parking there.

The meat has this superb juicy taste with specifically great aroma of grill and spices, the formula known only to the chef. The size is not king size but if hungry order chips as a side dish, it will keep you full and satisfied.

Best beer selection

The Beertija

If you like beer, look no further - Beertija really offers the best selection in the city. This bar has recently joined forces with nearby Klub. They're both situated in the same lovely yard, known as Joe Strummer Square, and together they make a great alternative nightlife center.

Noir chic coffee place

Velvet

7

This entire passage has successfully captured the spirit of old Zagreb. Velvet contributes to that fact with its interior's details (books, paintings' frames and furniture)that look as they belong to an old Zagreb apartment. The cafe is one of the favorite gathering spots of young artists. It offers great coffee and tasteful cakes.
