SOME INTERESTING FACTS ABOUT BELGRADE
BELGRADE NIGHT LIFE
 Experience
the verve and vibrancy of Belgrade’s nightlife with
a visit to some of the numerous and very liberal and friendly
clubs, discothèques, pubs and bars, cafés and
coffee shops all offering lively conversation, lots of fun,
the chance to make new friends and even the chance of seduction,
to its good- humoured revellers!
What sets this City apart from so many others is just how
many of these establishments boast beautiful gardens, a setting
on temperate evenings, for relaxation or buzzing to the sound
of lively entertainment.
With Jazz, Rock, Reggae, Cuban and Irish clubs, just some
of the music clubs waiting to welcome you, everyone will find
something to their taste!
The City Centre has certainly the liveliest action, but
don’t ignore the riverbanks of the Danube, Sava and
Ada Ciganligi with their floating bars and restaurants, which
will certainly leave a lasting, wonderful impression.
The Golden Cross restaurant showed the first film in Belgrade
in 1896 and was followed in 1906, by the opening of the first
cinema in the City.

FAST FOOD
We recommend:
Belgrade is also famous for its exquisite restaurants, cafes,
coffee shops, as well as for fast food restaurants. In case
you need a canteen, we recommend the restaurants which have
fed many generations of Belgrade University students.
 1.
Duff – although not original in name, this
fast food restaurant is undoubtedly No.1 restaurant as concerns
fast food. Excellent service, house delivery, frequent discounts
and promotions, an assortment of various free dressings (which
you yourself choose and add freely) and, what is most important,
top quality at a bit higher price than average are the main
reason why there are constant queues in front of these reasturants.
Locations: Autokomanda, Ustanicka, Novi Beograd
Make sure you try: Krastyburger
 2.
Stepin vajat – a cult grill restaurant
for the time before, during and after a famous football derby
(Red Star vs. Partizan). 24-hour crowd at Autokomanda, the
beginning of Vojvode Stepe Street, speaks itself of the status
Stepa enjoys. With more moderate prices and the quality towards
which neither Lotar Mateus nor Mile of Cubura can remain indifferent,
for Voždovac students this restaurant has no competitors.
3. Grill UNO – A system of fast food
restaurants networked over the whole city. It has no such
a long tradition as the above-mentioned restaurants, but with
the quality it offers and multi-presence in the market it
has become a serious competitor to satisfaction of the army
of customers.
4. Banjalucki cevap – also has a few
restaurants in different locations. During the 90s it was
a casual place for an after-hour when going out. The menu
presumes only Small and Big portion, although no one ever
objected to that. Find out why?
 5.
Bucko pizza – the only representative
of divine pasta at the TOP 5 list, stole the sympathies of
all Belgrade people since it has invented a dressing as a
garnish to pizza. From that time on the queues are ever present
in Francuska and Beogradska streets where Bucko restaurants
are situated.
You will certainly not regret if you visit the following
restaurants as well: Orao, Giros.gr, at Loki’s, at Cica’s,
at Nišlija’s, Pingvin (raft restaurant), Aca Bakery,
Toma Bakery, Amica, Keops and Pinokio.
| Since it does not belong to fast food restaurants category,
the restaurant Žuta greda (General Horvatovic Street)
has no competition. Moreover it is one of a kind since
it offers restaurant service, top-quality cooked dishes
and grill at the price of fast food assortment. Therefore,
students who usually lack money, cherish special relation
towards this restaurant. |
