In the center of Belgrade, Serbia there is the Rajiceva Shopping Center with a lot of shops, food and entertainment. The Starbucks is great to start the shopping tour as well as celebrating the shopping tour afterwards. There are some seats more comfortable than others and it is very popular, so fingers crossed that one of them is free and you will stay longer time. Meanwhile there are at least 3 coffeehouses in Belgrade with hopefully more to come.
