I needed a place to have coffee and do some lap top work. People inside are very cool and welcoming. I love this place. A really chill deuchbag free zone.
Great place with literature in other languages than Croatian. People are friendly and you feel welcome. I would totally recommend.
Jovial people. Great for spending a lot of time on the laptop. They have a good range of teas and will recommend something.
This is not like regular cafe. I was searching for quiet place for work and study so I folowed recommendation of friends and the didn´t lie about the place - Hashtag - quiet place to work, discuss, study + can get coffee ect.
As soon as we walked in we saw a bunch of people typing away on their laptops with comfy trendy chairs welcoming us in. A small window housed the helpful barista. She let us know that this wasn't just a cafe... You needed a membership to order a coffee. She was most helpful and served us a decent coffee, but we felt like we couldn't talk for fear of disturbing the people around us trying to get work done. Cozy place. Come for a coffee, pay a membership to help the local arts scene, maybe read a book or two.
This is a real book club! You can come there, read, work, chat, inform yourself on anything important that happens in cultural life of the city or stumble upon some of their book presentations. There is a nice archive of local independent culture scene which is very lively and internationally renowned. Don't miss to meet the activists which are running the place - they work hard, but also enjoy chatting.
This cafe is both hipster and trendy place. Coffee was fine, they have free WiFi and shelves full of books. What I don't like about it's the atmosphere of the place and the people who are quite awkward and I felt unpleasant.
A very charming cafe/bookstore/club that has live music many nights (performers are usually aspiring young singers/bands), it has a charming atmosphere, with every seat different from the other, people just sitting, sipping coffee and reading a good book, or listening to young singers perform...
Books, nice coffee, alternative atmosphere, nice music....just what else someone needs to feel like home! And Booksa is not just this..it is much much more!
Sorry to say, but I was so disappointed with the service, they were so very arogant and rude, I will never return there.
