Booze & Blues

Zagreb


It does what it says on the tin. Perched at the top of the buzzy Tkalča strip, this haven of jazz, blues and soul rhythms stands out with its weekend live-music line-up. The interior is designed in the tradition of American blues and jazz clubs, with music-history memorabilia, and Heineken on tap flowing from a functioning saxophone.

Check out their superior list of spirits, especially the beat boilermakers, such as Irish Car Bomb.
