CAFÉS NEAR TINKTANK COWORKING

You will find numerous cafes in the immediate vicinity of TinkTank coworking. These are what Croats call "kvartovski kafići" (transl. neighborhood cafés), with a limited selection of beverages and a basic setup. While this is all part of the local experience, we decided not to give you an extensive list of those cafés as you will easily find them yourself. Instead, here are two of our personal favorites when it comes to coffee in the area.

UTOPIA

  • Distance: 9 min walk

  • Menu: specialty coffee, croissant

  • Price: 2-5 euros

A comfortable 9-minute walk will take you to Utopia, our personal favorite when it comes to specialty coffee. In this pleasant and cozy café you will find not only many types of tasty coffee, but also matcha, teas, lemonade, cookies, and croissants. Beautiful and minimalist, the interior of this cafe itself is worth the visit!

TINEL

  • Distance: 2 min walk

  • Menu: coffee and other beverages, sandwiches, and simple pastries.

  • Price: 1.5. - 3 euros

This cozy cafe with an industrial-style interior and plenty of outdoor seating is a perfect option if you are in need of a quick break from your work. To get there, when you exit TinkTank turn right, go down 3 flights of stairs and then turn left. Don't follow Google Maps because there is a much shorter way to get to the cafe.

FOOD NEAR TINKTANK COWORKING

BOBIS BAKERY

  • Type: bakery & and pastry shop

  • Distance: 1 min walk

  • Menu: savory and sweet baked goods, sandwiches, cakes, pizza, bread

  • Price: 0.50-4 euros

Bobis Bakery located right next to Tommy grocery store has plenty of delicious baked goods for a very affordable price. If you are looking for local favorites, ask for burek. Pro tip: from 10:25 to 11:00 local school kids line up in front of the bakery during their break, so it's best to avoid the bakery in that period.

RESTORAN KAMPUS (AKA MENZA)

  • Type: canteen

  • Distance: 4 min walk

  • Menu: soups, pasta, meat, vegetables, desserts, etc.

  • Price: 3-7 euros for a whole 4 course menu

If you are looking for a proper home-style meal for a very affordable price, this canteen has many options. You can choose between set menus (both meat and vegetarian options) which include a 4-course meal for only about 6-7 euros. Students wait in line (their meals are subsidized and thus even cheaper), but you should go to the tables where you can get table service. To get to Restoran Kampus, do not follow Google instructions as it will give you a much longer route. Instead, turn right when you exit TinkTank, go down several flights of stairs and turn left as indicated on the map:

CALYPSO

  • Type: pizzeria

  • Distance: 5 min

  • Menu: Italian and Croatian dishes

  • Price: 7-15 euros (mid-range)

If you are craving pizza, Calypso is the perfect place for you. You can choose from several pizza styles and sizes. You will also find some traditional Croatian a la carte dishes and street food there, too. To walk to Calypso it will only take you 5 minutes, but follow our guidelines below as Google Maps offers only the longer route.

You can also try sarma (sauerkraut rolls) which is a traditional dish in these areas, or gravče na tavče, a traditional Macedonian baked beans dish.
