Pekara Anton Plus

Top choice in Niš


Prepare to hurry up and wait for the Serbian breakfast of champions: burek (hearty filo pastries stuffed with veal, cheese and other tasty fillings). This slick pekara (bakery) does the best in Niš. Four versions are available – veal, cheese, spinach and pizza (ham, cheese and mushroom) – and the Nišlije can't get enough of them.

They have another location at Jovana Skerlića 16.
