Question Mark Tavern (?
Кафана „?”
The oldest surviving traditional tavern in Belgrade, in a building dating back to 1823, named after the single question mark on its sign.
The building was erected in 1823 for Prince Miloš and later converted into a tavern. Following a dispute over its name, a temporary "?" sign was hung, which remains to this day. It is now a protected cultural monument. Inside, low wooden tables and stools are surrounded by old photographs of Belgrade. You can order veal soup, grilled meats, and sarma (stuffed cabbage rolls), while homemade gibanica (cheese pie) is available in the morning. It gets crowded on weekends and during peak seasons, so booking ahead is recommended, as some dishes may sell out. Located at 6 Kralja Petra Street, opposite the Cathedral and within walking distance of Kalemegdan Fortress.
