Zlatna Ribica
Even the entry suggests a specific arrangement and once you pass through the door you’ll be greeted by the unique décor. The interior is full of decorative details – coins, needlework, photos, various framed items, postcards, love letters, posters from festivals and plays – all of which are arranged randomly to give rise to a sort of “organized chaos”. When talking about this establishment, the toilet deserves special mention and it’s sure to generate a smile, given how unusual it is. You can see for yourself when you get there!
The café staff are dressed up in classic retro costumes and they always offer a hearty welcome and do their best to help you feel the warm and pleasant atmosphere.
Zlatna Ribica is located near the main walking street and Vječna Vatra, one of the city’s attractions.

A very unique place with a unique decor and limited seating. Definitely worth a visit.
Wir waren an unserem ersten Abend in Sarajevo hier und was für eine wunderschöne Bar. Alles ist sehr detailverliebt eingerichtet, die Cocktails schmecken hervorragend und man fühlt sich in die 1920er zurückversetzt. Ein absolutes Juwel unter Sarajevos Bars. Ganz großartig. Am Wochenende empfiehlt es sich definitiv zu reservieren, weil es sehr voll werden könnte und die Bar klein und urig ist.
If you're visiting Sarajevo, this is a bar you absolutely must stop by. I heard locally that it's been ranked as one of the top five bars in Europe. Upon actually visiting, I understood why; it's a stylish and unique space. Stepping inside, you enter a world completely different from a typical bar. You're surrounded by countless antiques and intriguing trinkets: old furniture, mirrors, clocks, picture frames, tableware, lighting, telephones, and more. Despite the abundance of objects, the whole space comes together as a cohesive world, with new discoveries everywhere you look. Zlatna Ribica is a small bar located just a few minutes' walk from Sarajevo Cathedral. The interior isn't very spacious, but its compactness creates a special, hidden-away atmosphere. The lighting isn't too bright, allowing you to relax and enjoy your drinks surrounded by antiques. I also heard locally that the same owner runs five bars around the world. I couldn't confirm the exact locations, but it suggests a strong commitment to creating these unique spaces. Despite its wonderful atmosphere, the drinks were surprisingly affordable when we visited. Considering the interior and location, the overall satisfaction level is very high. Because the bar is small, it can get crowded during peak hours. I wholeheartedly recommend this bar to anyone who appreciates antiques and unique interiors, as well as those looking for something different from typical bars. It was one of the most memorable places we visited in Sarajevo. If you come to Sarajevo, this is definitely a bar you should visit.
