Delicious ćevapi plate with homemade bread and onion. The owner served us - he is very kind and attentive. A hidden gem in the old city of Karlovac. If you are driving near Karlovac, highly recommend to turn off the highway, park and eat.

Super juicy meat, warm and soft bread | 7€ A bit of a language barrier but food and sing language unite men. Literally finger licking delicious

Great hosts, excellent simple food and fair prices. Perfect. Hvala vama!

PIPO Grill is a rustical little bistro with wide offering of continental and traditional grill food. As a vegetarian the only thing I can order is pizza and I must admit that pizza fungi with cheese and onion is the best pizza in Karlovac and surrounding.

This bistro is not on the main street, but well worth the short walk. Prices are very fair, food is good. Simple but fresh. The owners are very approachable and friendly. The whole place, from the tables to the kitchen to the toilets, is very very clean. Thanks
