About EK Bistro

EK Bistro is on Petkovškovo nabrežje, near the Grain Bridge (Žitni most), downstream from the market. It is a favourite for breakfast and brunch: eggs Benedict, Florentine and Royale made with organic eggs, the “French melt” sandwich with onion, baked mushrooms and Gruyère, smoothies, and cinnamon buns and croissants baked every morning with house marmalade. Our advice: arrive early at weekends.

Why it's on our list

  • Eggs Benedict, Florentine and Royale
