It's good to see you

Named after the artists' café in La Bohème

In Puccini's opera, Momus is the café where poets and painters gather — loud, warm, and in no hurry to close. We built the same idea on a Tirana street: excellent coffee, an Italian-leaning kitchen, and a room that belongs to everyone.

The identity — a face drawn in the spirit of Picasso — runs through everything we make.

Our story

Why guests love Momus

Simple, generous, and made with care — from the first espresso of the day.

One of the first cafés open in Tirana each morning. Eggs, avocado toast, fresh pastries and proper espresso — beloved by early risers and travelers on their first day in Albania.

Italian & Mediterranean kitchen

Truffle pasta, risotto nero, paccheri ai frutti di mare, burrata and the MOMUS burger — cooked with care, praised across hundreds of five-star reviews.

Work-friendly by day

Free fast Wi-Fi, plenty of outlets and a calm atmosphere make Momus a favorite of digital nomads and remote workers in Tirana.

Vegetarian-friendly

A wide selection of vegetarian and vegan-friendly dishes made with fresh ingredients — consistently highlighted by our guests.
