Hadjidraganovite Kashti – Bulgarian Restaurant with Live Folk Music & Revival Courtyard

🏛️ Four Houses — One Courtyard

In 1866 a merchant named Hadji Dragan commissioned master builders from across Bulgaria to construct an inn unlike anything in Sofia. Four houses were built in the distinct architectural styles of Koprivshtitsa, Zheravna, Melnik, and Bansko — each with its own character, connected by a shared courtyard. The complex was restored and opened as a restaurant, and today it's one of the most unusual dining spaces in the Balkans. The interior is worth arriving early to explore: antique objects, regional crafts, and folk textiles fill every room.

🎵 Live Folk Music — Wednesday to Sunday

A live folk band plays every day except Tuesday, from 20:00 to 23:00. Traditional instruments, background volume that fits the setting without competing with conversation. If you specifically want a music evening, any night from Wednesday to Sunday works. Book in advance — the restaurant fills up on music evenings.

📍 How to Find the Entrance

The restaurant is at 75 Kozloduy Street, near the intersection with Maria Luiza Boulevard and the Ramada hotel. The entrance is inside a building — not visible from the street.
