At Grandpa Stavrа's Roastery
Our Story
Roastery "At Grandpa Stavre's" isn't just an ordinary restaurant; it's a roastery with centuries-old tradition dating back to the time of Karađorđe.
After more than 200 years, we've decided to awaken the memory of Grandpa Stavre and his charcoal pit, and to convey to you the true meaning of "At Grandpa Stavre's" in a modern way, yet in the spirit of tradition.
The story begins in the distant year of 1779, in the vicinity of the village of Viševac, the birthplace of Karađorđe. Along the road leading to Belgrade, known as a trading route, there stood an old charcoal pit where weary travelers could find refuge for themselves and their horses. It was "Grandpa Stavre's charcoal pit."
Grandpa Stavre, a man of advanced years and small stature, always welcomed guests with a big smile on his face, a smile that couldn't be hidden beneath his long, thick mustache. Anyone who stepped into the charcoal pit could feel the warmth emanating from Grandpa Stavre's smile. Various stories were told, legends recounted at Grandpa Stavre's, all accompanied by sips of homemade brandy and hearty meals. Anyone who once spent time in this charcoal pit talked about it for years afterward.
However, Grandpa Stavre's charcoal pit is also known for something else. Namely, Karađorđe, from a young age, used to visit the charcoal pit with his father and often spent time in front of the entrance, sitting on a stump of a cut poplar tree, watching the trade caravans pass by.
Many years later, after battles or when he returned to his homeland, Karađorđe would gladly stop by the charcoal pit to refresh himself with roasted lamb and homemade brandy. He was a welcome guest because, as he himself would say every time he entered Grandpa Stavre's place, "Finally, home."
Grandpa Stavre's charcoal pit was long the center of all events, but in one raid by the Turks, it was burned down. However, more than 200 years later, we've decided to revive the memory of Grandpa Stavre and his charcoal pit, and to convey to you the true meaning of Grandpa Stavre's place in a modern way, yet in the spirit of tradition.
The roastery "At Grandpa Stavre's" is distinguished by the tradition from the heart of Serbia, with dishes prepared in a traditional way that nurture the taste of the past and desserts like those our grandmothers have been making for centuries. Come join us in continuing the tradition together, sharing new stories, and writing the history of Grandpa Stavre's charcoal pit.
