🍇 New in Sibiu in OCTOBER

One of the most anticipated restaurants in Sibiu's Historic Center is getting ready to launch: FAIN, in the former Zara store. The restaurant spans 3 floors, and each level brings a new concept: on the ground floor you can stop by the reimagined pub, with a selection of craft beers, wines and drinks; the first floor will be a full-fledged food court with different cuisines; and the second floor will be multifunctional – restaurant, event space or venue for private parties. We can't wait for the opening!

A new grocery store has opened, born out of a love for traditional Romanian products. We know more and more of us appreciate goods from local producers, so we encourage you to put everything that comes to mind on your shopping list (vegetables, fruit, cold cuts, cheeses, jams, pastries, honey and more) and pay them a visit. You'll find them in the Ștrand neighborhood, at 8 Doljului Street.

Craft beer lovers, good news! Casa Berarilor Artizanali is just the place if you're on the hunt for new beers from Romanian microbreweries. They have over 100 varieties in stock – enough for plenty of fun evenings ahead. Plus, if you drop by their store in the Carrefour Gallery these days, you can enjoy a free tasting.

Sibiu's new shopping center has officially opened: Prima Shopping Center, on Calea Șurii Mari, on the way out of Sibiu towards Mediaș.

Starting today, you'll find both new stores opening in the city for the first time (Numero Uno fashion, SuperZoo, Agroland, Sportissimo) and stores you already know, which will delight people living near the new center (C&A, Deichmann, Takko, Pepco, KiK, Flanco, JYSK). The good news is that the second development phase will add a Jumbo store, furniture stores and other services, plus restaurants, so by 2023 Sibiu will have a brand-new shopping hub.

Roastery 29 is a specialty coffee roastery that wants to become your energy supplier, morning after morning. What we love is their focus on quality and sustainability: the coffee comes in small batches and is always from a recent harvest.

Right now they have 4 single-origin coffees, each tested until they found just the right flavor profile. You can get them at their shop at 1 Gh. Dima Street or online. Which one will you start with? 🙂

Gatsby is the restaurant taking the place of the former The Gallery. It has already opened in the heart of the old town, right at 37 Nicolae Bălcescu Boulevard, and promises a rich gourmet experience in a setting full of lush greenery. Since the best opinion comes after a first visit, we say don't forget to add it to your list of places to try!

Coffee Story is a café and a coffee roastery at the same time. The best part is that whatever you taste at their spot at 30 N. Bălcescu Boulevard, you can also take home as specialty coffee beans freshly roasted right there. Trying a new coffee is always a pleasure!

The Italian restaurant Enzo has reopened in a new location. You'll still find it on N. Bălcescu Boulevard, but now at number 13. It welcomes you with the same variety of authentic dishes: homemade egg pasta, original recipes you'll only find there, plenty of fish and seafood dishes, pizza with a textbook crust and a relaxed, Italian-style atmosphere.
