A bar and restaurant in one place. The menu is short but well-chosen and they change it often. Great garden, too!

1 ulitsa "Elin Pelin"Very good place where you can taste real Bulgarian cuisine.
Mediterranean food at its best. Some will call it a gourmet restaurant, but for me, it is not exactly.

Raketa is a traditional Bulgarian restaurant with a unique atmosphere. The menu is typically Bulgarian with a modern twist. The interior provides an ironic perspective of communism and its symbols.

One of the few bars with large and very cozy garden. Definitely try it if you are visiting Sofia during the summer. But this place isn't just a bar! They have an amazing menu with a variety of food.

Used to be a bar now it is a brunch place at the day and bar at night. And because of that it is not in my personal favorite list anymore, but still a good and popular place.

Cozy bar right next to the "Raketa Rakia Bar" (which is not a bar actually) and that is pretty convenient because you can eat first and then drink. Both places are next to the "Zaimov Park", so you can end up drinking beer on some bench with your friends just like the locals do.

Brunch
The best brunch in town. Period. Almost always full, because it is super famous among tourists, but locals love it too. Try traditional Bulgarian breakfast food - mekitsi and banitza. "Rustic breakfast" is another gem in the menu.

One of the most popular burger places in Sofia. It might be strange, but there is no burger place in Sofia that I would recommend 100%. Each one of them has its advantages and disadvantages, so my advice is - if you're a burger fan try them all and decide for yourself! :)

Italian
Nice and cozy Italian restaurant. It is located on one of the main cuisine streets and right next to the bar that I also suggest - The Cocktail Bar. If you're wondering what to order - start with the pizza!
