Cafés

Coffee is the most popular daytime drink and every single deal in the city is made over an espresso or cappuccino at a café. Do try the Turkish coffee, though indicate how sweet you want it beforehand and wait with sipping till the gunk has sunk. Expect drinks and second-hand smoke, but no food or snacks.

Alpe Bar

Chain-smoking waiters, modern art and a terrace full of thugs seem to be what this place is all about. Handy for people watching, munching pizza and a quick injection of espresso but little else. Read_on (No Comments)

Corto Maltese

Another venue named after and illustrated with blow-ups from an Italian 1970s comic series, in this case one about a valiant captain defending the weak. Read_on (No Comments)

Costa Coffee

Confusing the locals, this is the first self-service café in Montenegro where you need to queue up at the counter to select your coffee and point out the delicious mafin, brownie or pannini sandwich of your desire. Read_on (No Comments)

Crna Gora Café

Overpriced drinks and cakes in Communist opulence inside a massive banquet-style hall, Crna Gora’s monster indoor café is best left alone. Read_on (No Comments)

One of the few places in Montenegro with decent banana splits on the menu, Hahaha sets itself apart from the rest in at least one respect. Read_on (No Comments)

This 'brunch bar' in the modern part of town by the cathedral has purple hints, soft seating and nicely presented food, including dishes from the Montenegrin mountains such as cicvara and kačamak, but also tasty pancakes. Read_on (No Comments)

Nero

The link between the Roman emperor and the large photos of Prague's main square in the hallway leading up to Nero is vague, but the bar is well worth a visit for the jazz concerts that take place every Friday and Saturday from 21:00. Read_on (No Comments)

Another bar that has the Golden City as its theme – do we sense some jealousy for its good looks here? You can wash away Read_on (No Comments)

Rakija Bar

T’ien Caffe

T’ien is a pleasant low-key hangout where you can sip coffee and soft drinks, and have a light snack or two. The café is a quaint two stories, refreshingly devoid of the usual Podgorica bling, and with outdoor seating overlooking the square. Read_on (No Comments)

Titograd

A Commie-retro bar that pokes subtle fun at the time when Podgorica was called Tito City. The bar's logo is adorned with Zastava cars and bulldozers, while old TG car license plates with red stars decorate the walls. Read_on (No Comments)

Part of the Carine complex, the café section facing Trg Republike square has decorations looking like ribbons of pasta and the exact same food and drinks menu as on the mothership. Read_on (No Comments)
