Breakfast in Sarandë,
the Albanian way.
Fresh fried dough, eggs, halal sausages and warm bread — on a sea view terrace near Mango Beach. Every morning from 08:00. Free parking.
Before the heat sets in, Sophra serves a genuine Albanian breakfast on a fully open sea view terrace near Mango Beach. Not a hotel buffet. Not a tourist menu. The kind of morning spread Albanian families put on the table — made fresh every day, open from 08:00.
