As much an historical landmark as a restaurant, Moricá Han is a traditional tavern built in the mid-16th century and financed by the same sponsor as the famous Gazi Husrev-beg mosque.

In the center of the Old Town is Kolobara Han, a surprising garden restaurant offering a quiet and tranquil experience in the midst of the hustle and bustle of Sarajevo’s main tourist area. Most of the tables are outdoors, surrounded by shady trees and trellises, and the menu offers a range of brunch items including Bosnian coffee, omelets, and flatbreads. A lovely spot for a slow brunch in a quiet but central setting.
