Restaurants, bakeries and coffee shops

Where to eat in Bar

Where you eat in Bar matters almost as much as what you order. Local cooking is concentrated beneath the walls of Stari Bar, while seafood, pizza, breakfast and coffee are spread between Obala kralja Nikole, the centre and Šušanj. This guide gives you a verified venue for each kind of meal.

Short answer

Local cooking in Stari Bar, seafood and pizza by the waterfront

Choose Bedem or Kaldrma in Stari Bar for lamb, veal and local cheese. Stara Čaršija and The Sons Eatery offer broader menus in the same old quarter. Restaurants by the waterfront cover seafood, Greek cooking and pizza, while bakeries, coffee shops, patisseries and Sushi Market are found in the centre and Šušanj.

Lunch in Stari Bar and dinner by the sea are two different experiences. Beneath the fortress, the old bazaar is the place for lamb, veal, local cheese and dishes rooted in Bar's cooking traditions. Obala kralja Nikole and the marina offer more seafood, Mediterranean food and pizza, while most bakeries, coffee shops, sushi and cakes are in the modern town. The guide is therefore arranged by area and by the kind of food you want. See what specific meals and drinks cost.

The venues in this guide are divided between the Old Bar bazaar, the centre, the waterfront and Šušanj. Stari Bar is separate from the modern town, and the central and waterfront venues are also spread across several streets. Open the map on the chosen venue card before setting out.
