🇭🇷 Zagreb Coffee Guide: A Taste of Croatian Coffee Culture

💗In Zagreb, coffee isn't just a drink—it's a cherished ritual shaped by Ottoman influences. 💗Locals happily spend half their weekends lingering over cups with loved ones in cozy cafés (typically open 9am-8pm, unlike Sydney's early-bird spots!). 💗 As a coffee enthusiast, I was blown away by Zagreb's vibrant scene. ☕ Top Picks. Monocycle. Ul. Kneza Mislava 17. "If the espresso is good, everything is good." Hidden gem with Zagreb's best handcrafted specialty coffee (credit to barista/owner Mr. Dado). ☕Must-tries: Double espresso (sugar-free) or cappuccino—both exceptional.Bonus: Croatian craft beers, fresh juices, and the best homemade ginger tea of my life. 🍰Vibe: Artsy, smoke-free, with charming square-side seating. Quahwa. *Ul. Nikole Tesle 9/1* 🌿 Third-wave coffee haven,Ethiopian pour-over: Bright, floral, and lightly acidic. 🍰Pair with their carrot cake (heavenly!).Pro tip: Cappuccinos = single shot, flat whites = double (prices vary). Staff speak fluent English and geek out over bean origins. 🌍 Why It’s Special.Croatian coffee culture thrives on slow enjoyment—no rushed takeaway cups here. At these spots, expect:Single-origin beans (medium roast = natural sweetness, no sugar needed) #ZagrebCoffee #CroatianCraftBeer #SpecialtyCoffee #ThirdWave
