For a great cup of coffee, we recommend Kawa, Ministry of Ćejf, Cordoba, Hanuma 2D, and Spazio Café. If you’re in the mood for a longer break and want to relax with a shisha, Damask and Dibek in Baščaršija are the perfect spots.

For drinks with a stunning view over Sarajevo, check out City View de Luxe on the city’s oldest high-rise or City Coffee2Go at the upper station of the Sarajevo Cable Car. Don’t miss Žuta Tabija, Caffe Kamarija, or Vidikovac Zmajevac either, all ideal for soaking in the scenery.

Those with a sweet tooth should visit La Delicia, Baklava Dućan, Ramis, Vijećnica, or the creperie Žuti Kutak.

Take a stroll down Vilsonovo šetalište and unwind at the Summer on Vilsonovo event, which offers entertainment for all ages. For fun and activities the whole family can enjoy, head to the Safet Zajko Center.

In Ilidža, stop by Panna Cotta or Cordoba at Hotel Krone for a nice café-restaurant experience.
