A guest book, open since 1965.

This is not a history page. It is one continuous list: who sat here, what they ate and what they said — whether that was in 1965 or last Friday.

1960.

Đorđe Stanisavljev buys a Peugeot 203. The nickname it earned him — Bata Pežo — would outlast the car.

1965.

His first kafana. By the end of his life he would host, by his own count, over five million guests; Andrić, Ćopić and Crnjanski sat at his table.

“A kafana is not made of walls, but of the people who come.”

2000.

The restaurant bearing his name opens at Kamenjar 5, on the left bank of the Danube, by the marina. Twenty-six years later it is still there — the dining room and terrace literally above the water.

Dining room above the Danube — set tables, napkins with the Pežo signature, water in the window
2024.

The Đukić family takes over — Danilo as owner, his sister Anastasija as manager; the same family behind Priča Concept Bar.

“We refreshed the interior, added comfort and elegance, but kept the spirit of tradition.”

“Fish is the heart of our menu.”

Carp, catfish, pikeperch — all our fish comes exclusively from local fishermen. Pikeperch Orly is a nearly forgotten speciality and we keep it on the menu on purpose.
