I liked Fabrika the moment I entered - massive mural on the side of the building, colorful lamps above the patio, many benches and tables outside, different bars, board games, food, drinks. It's a very nice ambiance and it seems like all young people come here to hang out. Totally full at weekends.
Good selection of craft beers and great view of the bay. Interesting collection of scuba gear and classic diving movies on their TV, if you are a diver you need to check it out. The menu is limited but everything on it is great. Friendly staff and cozy atmosphere.
