serbian & regional balkan cuisine - since 1984
Beograd: the Original Store
In 1984, Dragan Kecman, who arrived in Chicago from Serbia ten years earlier, had a major event occur. He opened his own deli at 2937 W Irving Park Rd in Chicago. Together with his family, they were to built one of the most successful ethnic businesses outside – at that time Yugoslavia. Beograd Meat Market started as a true neighborhood store, focused on the best Serbian foods, the freshest meats and produce, and service that included interacting with customers on a first name basis.
Growing
In 2002, Dusko Pavlovic, along with his family, became a new owner. His following years were hard in terms of maintaining the quality and service the customers expected. Hard work and effort opened new chapter for the young owners; with new business units: Beograd Bakery and Sweet Shop, House of Crepes, Restaurant and Café, Catering, and Online Shopping, we became a leader in a specialty food industry.
We are proud to be mentioned by numerous newspapers and magazines, TV stations, websites, and media outlets, including Check! Please, ABC7, CBS2, WGN, Time Out Chicago, The Chicago Tribune, Chicago Sun-Times, The Chicagoist, and many more.
