Coffee without milk or cream.
خلفية ثقافية
Coffee is often served with a small glass of water and sometimes a tiny biscuit or a piece of Turkish delight (lokum). The 'kafené' is a social hub where people spend hours over a single cup of black coffee, a practice known as 'бичене на айляк' (chilling). The tradition of strong, dark coffee comes from the Ottoman era, though the modern 'черно кафе' is usually an espresso. Specialty coffee shops in Sofia now offer 'черно кафе' made with various brewing methods like V60 or Chemex, not just espresso.
The Default
If you just say 'кафе', you'll get a black espresso. Use 'черно' to be 100% sure.
Sugar is Separate
Black coffee doesn't mean 'no sugar'. Sugar is usually provided on the side. If you want no sugar, say 'без захар'.
