Konoba Daniela

Some five kilometres outside Poreč, the Daniela provides a classic rustic Istrian experience, its arcaded terrace full of birdsong in spring, its fireplace warming in winter. Here, peka dishes are the way to go – phone ahead to order succulent octopus or meat, slow-cooked for several hours under hot coals. Most dishes are locally sourced, using fresh, seasonal ingredients. It’s a guesthouse, too, so the welcome is particularly warm, with affordable rooms available.
