Worth a detour
Zagreb · Ilica, Croatia
Why it’s on the route
Eliscaffe is a small bar on Ilica run by Nik Orosi, a multiple Croatian Barista Champion, who roasts the beans sold under the Eli's Caffe name. It was among the first places in Croatia to bring in proper brewing equipment and specialty varieties. The menu is coffee-only and the room is small, with conversation as much as coffee the draw.
