Editor's note: Caffe Bar Gavella is closed with plans to reopen.
The café-bar of the Gavella Theatre is something of a Zagreb classic, with its smoky ambience, looks-like-marble-but-isn’t-really interior, and odd mixture of dressed-up theatre-goers and garrulous middle-aged men who just popped in to see if the football was on TV. The likelihood of actually seeing any stars of the stage in here are slim indeed – the thespians have got their own private drinking club at the back of the building.
