Josephine takes its name and its look from Josephine Baker and the 1920s, a cocktail bar and restaurant on Kralja Milutina in central Belgrade fitted out in glamorous Art Deco with meticulous attention to detail. The house calls the aim a world both modern and timeless. Behind the bar sits a long cocktail list of what it calls authentic formulas, backed by a deep spirits shelf and a wine selection that rotates through producers from around the world. The kitchen runs all day, from breakfast to dinner, with a lavish and eclectic seasonal menu built on fresh ingredients and house made delicacies. Service starts at noon and runs late into the night.
Rakia Bar calls itself the first and the original rakia bar, and the room on Dobračina in central Belgrade is built around rakija, the Serbian fruit brandy. The house sums up its own offer as rakija mixology, and the drinks follow the spirit: plum, quince, raspberry and the rest of the fruit brandy range. Alongside the bar the house runs what it describes as an unusual gift shop, stocking rakija sets and miniatures, medovina, gin and liqueurs, wines from small Serbian producers, and jams, compotes and preserves made to traditional recipes without chemistry or preservatives. Rakija glasses, decorative vessels and Belgrade souvenirs fill the shelves, sold through the house's own online shop.
