Belgrade is known for its nightlife, history, and hospitality. But for visitors, pizza has become part of the city’s dining landscape. Whether you are here for a short weekend or a longer stay, pizza is one of the easiest ways to get a taste of the city’s mix of influences. This guide highlights where tourists can find good pizza — from quick slices to refined dining experiences.
Street Pizza and Late Nights
Belgrade has a strong street pizza culture. Places like Bucko are open late and serve large slices with flavored sauces. It’s inexpensive, fast, and part of the city’s after-hours rhythm. For many tourists, a visit to Bucko is less about the pizza itself and more about the atmosphere of a busy Belgrade night.
Neighborhood Pizzerias
Local pizzerias such as Majstor i Margarita and Pietra focus on wood-fired or Neapolitan style pizzas. These restaurants are popular with residents and often fully booked on weekends. Tourists looking for a sit-down meal with consistent quality should plan ahead and make reservations.
Crust Belgrade
Crust Belgrade is positioned differently. The focus is on 48-hour fermented dough, seasonal toppings, and calm service. It is a fine-dining pizzeria rather than a quick stop. For tourists, this means a slower meal and a chance to experience pizza as part of Belgrade’s growing contemporary dining scene. Located centrally, it’s easy to reach on foot from major sites.
Family-Friendly Options
Pizzabar and similar casual spots serve a wide variety of toppings and offer easy service for groups and families. These restaurants are practical for lunch breaks during sightseeing.
Tips for Tourists
- Make reservations for dinner in popular places.
- Expect different styles — from thin and fast to slow and fermented.
- Combine pizza with Serbian wine or craft beer to round out the experience.
- Use Google Maps reviews to check current opening hours — they can shift seasonally.
Summary
Pizza in Belgrade reflects the city itself: energetic, diverse, and evolving. For tourists, it’s not just about food but about the kind of evening you want. From street slices at Bucko to artisan fermentation at Crust Belgrade, the city has a style for every visitor.
