Good food club
The best taverns in Niš are easy to spot: a full room, live music and great food. At Porta - Crveni Pevac the charcoal burns every day, the music plays and the food arrives the way it should — fresh, carefully chosen, prepared traditionally and without a rush.
Live music every day
Yes — live music plays every single day. From 16:00 to 20:00 Maestro Žarko Bajagić Baja performs, a legendary member of Daltoni. From 20:00 to midnight the acoustic group Crveni Pevac takes over.
Starogradska, folk and entertainment music — a repertoire you know in a room you will remember. The music is here every day. You don't have to wait for the weekend.
Renovated 2025 — the Skadarlija of Niš
Porta - Crveni Pevac is in the same neighbourhood and the same spirit as before. We renovated the restaurant in summer 2025 with one idea: a place where service does not sacrifice soul, and soul does not sacrifice quality.
Journalists call us the Skadarlija of Niš. We don't complain.
Celebrations & private events
We have two separate halls, each seating up to 30 guests, available for private hire. Slava, birthday, graduation, engagement, business lunch or family celebration — we organise it with grill, cooked dishes and music until midnight.
Both halls are air-conditioned, comfortable and equipped with air purifiers, so they are pleasant for longer celebrations too.
