| EBG Rating: | 7.5/10 |
| Choice/ Quality of Drinks | ❤️❤️❤️ A reasonable selection of beers by Croatia’s standards when factoring in the fridge options. Mainstream back bar for alternatives. |
| Style/ Décor | ❤️❤️❤️❤️ Unusual place for old town Zadar, straight off the stone into a small bar with a raised area at the back for further seating. Green walls decorated with classic rock n’ roll/heavy metal ephemera. |
| Atmosphere/ Character | ❤️❤️❤️❤️ A clear ‘alternative’ space for those who aren’t quite down with the otherwise mainstream coastal bar going options in old town Zadar. As a result, there are some locals here even in peak season. While difficult to believe (given this place is hardly Szimpla Kert) there really is nothing much else like it in the city. |
| Amenities/ Events | ❤️❤️❤️ Occasional music, snacks, limited outdoor seating, smoking permitted. |
| Value For Money | ❤️❤️❤️ Fair value given the central location. |
| Description | Raw, smoky and local despite the old town location, there is a fair bit of charm to this place that is made more stark by the absence of anything even remotely similar to it around the city. A classic rock bar in some respects with the usual memorabilia and music decor. A small bar room with seating in a raised area to the back which still attracts residents as well as tourists, possibly on account of the unpretentious surroundings and fair value overall. It isn’t entirely a loss when it comes to drinks either, with Pivovara Medvedgrad bottles alongside the more mainstream fare. If you are in any way inclined towards the alternative then this is the place you need to check out while in Zadar. (Added August 2024) |
