Welcome to Bar Gjahtarët, a charming art cafe nestled along the scenic shores of the lake in Tiranë, Albania. Perfectly situated under the natural shade of trees, this cafe offers a tranquil atmosphere that invites you to unwind and appreciate nature's beauty.

He mentions, however, that while dining options are minimal, the setting itself compensates remarkably. Doris Kole appreciates the quick service and the overall relaxing atmosphere, echoing that the cafe's true magic lies in its location.

Despite the charming environment, it’s worth noting that some patrons have pointed out areas for improvement, particularly the condition of the bathrooms. While Bar Gjahtarët excels in creating a welcoming space, addressing these concerns would elevate the overall experience even further.

Top location. Place in natural shade of trees, just next to the lake in park. You cannot eat here, only basic tost sendwich. Weiter is totaly unproffesional, only reason that I cannot give 5 star.

The view here is so relaxing. They don’t make the best coffees and they don’t have food options besides a simple toast. Despite that, their service is quick and the perfect location is the major advantage it has.

Very nice stuff. Prices are fair. The location is directly on front of the lake. All in all a nice place to sit in the sun

I stopped by this spot near the lake with my litte doe buddy for a quick break with some water and a toast. The toast was simple and homemade, nothing extraordinary, but the peaceful atmosphere more than made up for it. When it got chilly, the server kindly turned on the heating, which was a thoughtful touch. However, the bathrooms were a major downside. They were in such poor condition that I couldn’t even stay inside for a moment and had to find another place to go. As someone with a high tolerance for such things, this was especially disappointing.
