❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
Excellent selection (quality over quantity) of Serbian craft beer particularly given the size of the bar.

Décor
❤️❤️❤️❤️
A retail unit in an alleyway/arcade turned into a bar. Well executed with a mezzanine level above the bar, and space in the courtyard in the evenings to socialise.

Surprisingly buzzing, this is a popular neighbourhood social spot. Fewer city boys and posers, not just beer monsters either. Very chatty and social inside and out.

Takeaway options, snacks, smoking permitted, outdoor seating
Value For Money❤️❤️❤️
Still pretty good value all things considered.
DescriptionCheck opening times and don’t be deterred if you visit and you can’t find it – the bar occupies the central courtyard of an old shopping arcade next to a laundrette and a massage parlour at the back. It’s a tiny little retail unit they’ve built a mezzanine area inside and put benches and barrels in the courtyard to expand it. The execution of this bar is very good and attracts a local, friendly and social crowd. This is where you could easily meet new friends and make connections, and benefits from being just far enough outside the centre to feel like it isn’t trying to impress anyone. The beers are local, Serbian and craft in focus, meeting a high standard. All in all, if you enjoy beer without the hype and marketing b.s, this is an essential stop off in Belgrade. (Added June 2023)
