According to Chat GPT: A “hipster” is a person, typically in their twenties or thirties, who embraces an alternative or countercultural lifestyle characterized by distinctive fashion, interests, and a rejection of mainstream trends.
Dracula is the first hipster, and I think I know better than GPT!
Artichoke Social House – Easy-going cafe

Zona libera butic – An upgraded Beer Garden
Located in the oldest park in Bucharest it gives out a bohemian vibe, you just want to go there and discuss literature.

J’ai Bistrot – Brunch garden by day, pub by night
When I don’t want to hear traffic and just want to relax somewhere that doesn’t feel like Bucharest, this is the place where I can retreat.
