Retro (Batumi)
რეტრო
A well-known Khachapuri restaurant near the Seaside Boulevard, featuring a dedicated Khachapuri section on the menu and offering extra-large portions.
Located at 10 Takaishvili Street, near the Seaside Boulevard, Retro is one of the most famous Khachapuri shops in Batumi. The menu features an entire Khachapuri section with various fillings, and the six-egg-yolk "Titanic" is perfect for sharing. The small size is often enough for two people, and you can request "utsomoti" to remove the thick dough in the middle. It gets crowded during peak season, so you may have to wait for a table. Reviews are mixed: some praise the rich cheese and crispy crust, while others complain about the food being served cold, service issues, and billing discrepancies. Be sure to confirm the size and price when ordering, and watch out for the roughly 15% service charge. The average cost is about 20–30 GEL per person. There is another shop with the same name on Gogebashvili Street, so do not confuse them.
