Where to eat in Herceg Novi
The best place to eat in Herceg Novi depends on both the meal and the part of town. Škver is the first choice for seafood, the steps above the harbour lead to one of the best-known grills, and Njegoševa Street covers a full breakfast and speciality coffee. In Igalo, a bakery and patisserie with two city branches works for burek, bread and cakes. This guide connects each type of food with a specific venue, exact address and dish worth ordering.
For seafood, head to Škver; for grilled meat, take the steps above the harbour
Konoba Feral and Konoba Škver are two established seafood restaurants by the town harbour. Tri Lipe is known for ćevapi and other grilled dishes, Bife Beograd serves breakfast and a broad all-day menu, and Koffein and Fabrika Coffee focus on speciality coffee. Peter's Pie & Coffee has a vegetarian menu, while Amber in Topla serves Georgian food.
Herceg Novi has no single dining district.

The guide below matches each type of food with a specific area and a restaurant known for serving it well. See what specific meals and drinks cost.
