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 center and Šušanj. This guide gives you a verified venue for each kind of meal.
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 center 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.
Where Bar's restaurants and coffee shops are located
The venues in this guide are divided between the Old Bar bazaar, the center, 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.
Choose Bedem or Kaldrma for lamb, veal, local cheese and other regional dishes. Stara Čaršija combines Mediterranean, Oriental and Montenegrin cooking, while The Sons Eatery serves breakfast, meze, pizza and a more contemporary dinner menu.
Le Petit Chateau serves breakfast and an all-day menu by the waterfront, El Greco is inside Marina Bar, and Ciao is beside the promenade. This is the most useful part of town for a waterfront breakfast, Mediterranean lunch or pizza by the sea.
Cezar, Pulena, Horošo, Pascucci and Figaro are located on Vladimira Rolovića Street, Makedonska Street and Revolucije Boulevard. In the center you can pick up burek or pastries, sit down for pizza and finish with coffee or cake.
Your Time at 10 Maršala Tita serves breakfast, waffles, salads and poke bowls. Sushi Market on IV Crnogorske proleterske brigade Street serves sushi, rolls and wok for eating in, collection or delivery.
