"Ministry of Ćejf is a gorgeous place that I wholeheartedly recommend. It truly feels like the entire family runs this beautiful café, and that warmth is present in every detail. Located in a perfectly quiet spot at the start of the hill, it’s peaceful, welcoming, and full of character. The family-style service comes with great energy and genuine good mood, you can see how happy they are enjoying the place they’ve created. The atmosphere is deeply authentic, and the Bosnian coffee was the best I had in the city. The sweets were also excellent. I even came back later for a tea on the balcony. Both spaces are wonderful, and overall it’s simply a happy place"

"Really tasty Bosnian coffee, friendly people and a cool rustic interior. Beautiful little terrace situated on the hill for ideal people watching and enjoying the street vibe, but i preferred to chill inside and enjoy the company of this sleeping kitten. Sort of makes for a makeshift cat cafe vibe. After coffee i tried one of their house specialties, the rose sherbet and it was very tasty! Great spot that’s open late and in the heart of everything on this side of town."

"Friendly waiter and nice location. We were lucky and there were not many visitors at the time we went and hence we could enjoy our coffee and their cejf cake while relaxing on their terrace."

"A very nicely decorated café. The tables are old sewing machine tables. It's still located in the old town, giving it a completely different feeling. Since it's a bit higher up, you can enjoy the view and the street atmosphere. The Bosnian coffee was delicious, and the rose sherbet was very pleasant. The staff were very nice and friendly. The evening feels even different."
