Fresh Corner at INA Celebrates a Decade as Croatia’s Top Coffee Stop

Celebrating 10 years and 8.5 million coffees, Fresh Corner at INA has quietly become Croatia’s most popular place to grab a cup — even more than any café

A decade ago, it was just a pit stop: fuel, fumes, and maybe a half-hearted sandwich. But today, Fresh Corner at INA has brewed its way into Croatia’s cultural map — quite literally.

With a staggering 8.5 million coffees sold in 2023 alone, this roadside café concept now pours more coffee than any other chain in the country.

At Vukova Gorica, Croatia’s busiest Fresh Corner, the smell of 100% Brazilian arabica greets travellers before the engine cools.

From crisp pizza wraps to custom-built hot dogs and creamy iced lattes with a scoop of pistachio gelato, Fresh Corner has redefined what a roadside break can be.

Celebrating its 10th anniversary, with 95% national recognition, INA plans to upgrade 40 locations this year, offering even more comfort and choice.

Fresh Corner isn’t just a retail success — it’s a ritual. A smile, a good coffee, and a brief pause in the fast lane.

Croatia’s best-loved café doesn’t have a barista behind a counter.

It has thousands of them — working roadside, one espresso at a time.
