Hadjidraganovite Izbi means the cellars of Hadji Dragan, and the restaurant is the sister of Hadjidraganovite Kashti. Inside it feels like an old cellar: stone walls and barrels line the halls, with wood carvings, old folk costumes, copper pots and wooden wheels with oil lamps on the walls. The benches are covered in Kotlen rugs and soft cushions made from the aprons of old costumes, and on warm days the summer garden opens in the inner courtyard.
Folk musicians play every evening from 20:00 to 23:00, except on Mondays, and guests often see them move from hall to hall between the tables. There is no ticket for the music. To hear it from the start, book your table for 19:30 so you can order first, and tell us when you book if you want to sit close to the band. On a Monday the restaurant is open as usual, just without music.
The cellar has several halls and a courtyard garden, so groups can sit together. Tell us the date, the group size and the occasion, and we ask the restaurant for the right hall.
Hadjidraganovite Izbi is at 18 Hristo Belchev St., next to the crossing with Solunska St. and right by Vitosha Blvd, an easy walk from most central hotels. Do not mix it up with Hadjidraganovite Kashti, the sister restaurant on Kozloduy St.
