Spetema Caffe

Great little gem in a beautiful park, minutes away from the Alexander Nevsky Cathedral. Food was amazing, coffee was superb, and the service impeccable. Have in mind the place is self serve so you’ll have to go get your order placed at the top of the stairs and then collect it when the bell rings. You’ll ask have to pickup after yourself and leave your table as you found it - cleaning spray and table towels can be found on top of the garbage disposal island. Prices are unbeatable for the location!
Overall, amazing find!!!

As you stroll west from the Nevski Cathedral you will encounter a small triangular parking area in sight of the National Museum of Natural History.   Just along the side of this building, almost hidden from view, you will find a small tree covered area filled with tables and chairs...   This is the location of Spetema Caffe.

We stumbled upon it by accident and decided to take a short break before exploring the joining Royal Garden...   You have to look for it but you will find a very small kiosk at the left rear of the table area.    We ordered two cups of coffee, one with milk.   The price, 2.20 lev.   That's just $1.29 (€1.12) for both!

Of course the Spetema area offers much more - the menu is in Bulgarian - but there are photos of sandwiches and other available offerings.

A very pleasant way to spend a few minutes in a very beautiful park.

Had a fabulous coffee and hot chocolate. Would recommend for a quick stop-off whilst exploring.

One of the best self-catering Caffe in Sofia. They have sandwiches, pizzas, other breakfast options. Great selection of tea. The coffee is very good.

Good sitting in the park, quiet and relaxing, self-service, Expresso 1.40 BGN. Recommend this Bar in Sofia!!!!

Very cheap, lots of locals, nice place!

Cute to go cafe with shelter from the unforgiving Sofia sùmmer heat, order through the window and sit amongst the trees. Located right in the center of the city between all the major sites. Prices are ridiculously low.

Comfortable location for a quick stop and relax

The best kind of informal place to get something to drink

Cute Cafe for a short break with coffee or beer . They have some snacks and simple food too.

A quiet cafe in a great location.
Very reasonable prices too.

Loved it! Just opened the frappe season

small place in the middle of the city and nature, no tourists

Good coffee and a shady place to sit

Cool

Fantastyczne miejsce na drinka, piwo, lub miętę 🙃😉 w ciepły letni dzień. Miła Pani z obsługi lekko zaskoczona słowem Hello 😃 raczej więcej lokalnych mieszkańców niż turystów. Fajne, polecam.

Явно има много фенове ...но аз не съм кафеджия.
С тоалетната имаше малък проблем.

Precios populares. Un ambiente muy tranquilo rodeado de naturaleza.

Disfrutamos de un rato muy agradable tras hacer un tour por la zona principal de la ciudad.

Приятно място, зад Двореца/минало/, пред Общината /настояще/.. Тихо и уютно...Добри цени, вкусни сандвичи, кафе и аперитиви. Открито място през всички сезони

Непретенциозно място в центъра на града, където на сянка и сред прохлада можеш да изпиеш домашно приготвена лимонада.
