Takeaway coffee doesn’t exist in Montenegro. Coffee is something to enjoy slowly, preferably with friends, with your face in the sun. It’s absolutely not something to be gulped from a paper cup on the way to work. Montenegro’s vibrant capital has lots of places to linger over coffee and get brunch with your friends. From cozy to chic, Podgorica’s top brunch spots are made for enjoying the weekend — Montenegrin style.

Forest

Restaurant, European, Italian, Mediterranean, $$$

A cozy little place with an Italian influence, Forest is a trendy joint in Podgorica.

Also in the Atlas Centre, Elit Restaurant and Lounge is a very popular place, day and night. They specialise in cocktails, and as anyone who’s ever watched Sex and City knows, brunch isn’t brunch without a Cosmo. Their pancake stack and vegetarian omelettes are ever popular, but it takes a strong will to walk past their cake stand without indulging!
