Bura Bistro & Bar

Beside Dubrovnik Cathedral with its glittering treasury, Bura Bistro & Bar is a recently opened top spot in the historic Old Town serving sensational seasonal food, innovative wines and quality cocktails. Named after an Adriatic wind, Bura is overseen and co-owned by professional sommelier Marin, who has travelled the globe inspired by good food. Bura’s concise menu changes throughout the year, underscored by the long-standing relationship Marin and his team have developed with local farmers and producers. The daily catch is just that, fresh fish and seafood arriving every morning from the Adriatic lapping close by. In summer, tapas-style dishes come into their own, most notably ceviche, here prepared with authentic expertise. The wine list is particularly well-chosen, sold by the glass whether red, white, sparkling or rosé. The speciality is orange wines, produced by leaving the grape skins and seeds in contact with the juice, resulting in a deep orange-tinted finish. Equal care is taken over the cocktails and live jazz every evening only embellishes the experience.
