Restaurants near our home

The restaurants we recommend here are all close to our home, accessible by foot from 5min to 30min walk (or 5min by car max).
New place that open on a long time local restaurant location (used to be “Konoba pizzeria Perun”) just down our road (only 7min by foot from our home). It’s so far a pure hit with locals and foreigners, especially if you are a meat lover and want to try it the croatian way. Great burgers, steaks (tomahawk steak especially) and local specialty “Cevapi” (a local beloved specialty of minced meat, usually served in a round bread pita) that I recommend you try once while staying in Croatia as it is a beloved local specialty (if you like meat). Only local products (meat is from north of croatia in Slavonija, and potatoes and vegetables from nearby villages), large portions, with plenty of choices on the menu including a good choice of beers as well as local Croatian wines. With also a great friendly staff and decent prices, I believe Chevap House is worth a visit (I would recommend sitting outside on the large terrace), if you are looking for a simple family/friends lunch/dinner close by foot to our home or right after an afternoon at the beach.

Restaurant is located just down our road across the street (4min by foot) on the roof the "Hotel Split". On the roof it offers a stunning view of the bay, sea and city. Fine dining, great service and very good food, but be aware that prices are above average. They also have accessible tables by the beach on the ground floor.

New place that is super successful with locals and foreigners, 16min by foot from our home but also has parking places if you want to go by car. They prepare local specialties (black risotto, pasticada, grilled meat and fish and vegetables etc...) . Large portions, (great price/quality ratio), with plenty of choices on the menu, great friendly staff and decent prices, it's the best to taste some delicious local food not so far from our home (accessible by foot 16min or by car as there are parking places in front).

My favorite restaurant close to home, really great food espcially seafood for which I go there each time! Full of locals! Really recommend you to go there at least once! My favorite dishes are (skampi buzara (=langoustines with pasta & delicious tomato sauce), lignje na zaru sa pommes frites (grilled squid with fries), and for dessert some rozata (a local specialty sort of creme caramel). Located in Stobrec (5min by car, 30min by foot from our home).

In the Marina of Hotel Meridien Le Lav, some 15min by foot/3min by car from our home (I recommend a walk along the beaches down our road), a new restaurant with delicious food, offering a sort of culinary adventure through regional Croatian cuisine (you can choose menu per region of Croatia). Expensive but worth it!

The food (BBQ grill for delicious seafood and steaks), wine, and service is very good. Live music at dinner is an added bonus.

Restaurants further away from our home: traditional countryside food

Here I put a list of Restaurants further away from our home (15min-35min by car) and not by the sea that are more traditional "countryside" : they offer traditional food that Croatians love to eat especially for events, like family parties, weddings etc. If you want to try traditional croatian food, above all try the traditional Dalmatian meal of lamb slowly fire roasted (real wood) on a rotisserie spit ("janje na ražnju" or « janjetina na žaru ») roasted local dalmatian lamb, that is a delicious local specialty that you must try. It's mostly meat grilled and also we recommend you try "Peka" cooked meals, that can be either meat or fish like squid.
By far the best restaurant in Podstrana! Locals favorite and real traditional croatian food and gastronomy ! Everything is amazing: the view, the food, the staff. It's a must do but only downside: not so close and accessible: 15min drive and you have to go by own car or take a cab. But it's really worth it for experiencing the finest local cuisine whilst enjoying breathtaking views! It's a family owned business for generations, everything is fresh, homemade and home grown. Reservations are absolutely necessary: don't just show up, you have to be sure to get a table!

Lovely excursion recommended on this site located in a pristine natural environment. Has a restaurant, a small river and plenty of open space for children to play around. It is an old family mill from 16th century but today the mill is a beautiful hidden restaurant that offers delicious, traditional Croatian dishes, in the beautiful surrounding of its garden next to the Žrnovnica river stream. I recommend you make reservations! PS: some game of thrones scenes were filmed here!

If you are planning a visit of the Klis fortress, I recommend having a meal at restaurant Perilica in Klis before of after, above all to enjoy the traditional Dalmatian meal of lamb slowly fire roasted (real wood) on a rotisserie spit ("Janje na ražnju"). It is their specialty, really delicious and an important part of local gastronomy.

New name: "VICKO". Super popular among locals to get delicious « janjetina na žaru » roasted local dalmatian lamb, that is a local specialty that you must try. They also make traditional bread under the "peka". Changed name recently to "Vicko". Family owned business. Not so close to our home: 30min drive on the way to Sibenik from Split, but is so popular among locals that I definitely recommend you stop there especially if you go to visit Sibenik and/or Krka National Park as it is on the way there!

Fast food & treats (patisserie, ice cream etc) near our home

Located right in the sandy beach close to our home and the other fast foods, it is great to try local specialty called "burek". There are salty ones filled with cheese or meat or vegetables, to sweet ones, filled with Nutella or strawberries, or jam. Give it a try for a quick bite and you can sit and walk by the benches on the sand beach next to it.

Coffee spots by the beach near our home

The coffee spots we recommend here are all close to our home, accessible by foot from 5min to 30min walk (or 5min by car max). Most of them are along the beaches just down our road.
Locals favorite spot for coffee&food located directly on the main beach down our road (300m, 4min walk) offering a lovely view on the beach and sea. Now also goes by the name "Bastard’s kitchen&bar". Coffee&drinks and also as restaurant offers enough choices on the menu, simple but tasty dishes for affordable prices and a friendly staff! Recommended especially if you are spending the day on our beach and want to have a break for food&drinks, you can also get ice creams, pancakes and drinks there during whole day.

The nicest beach club close to home (15min by foot), in the marina of the Hotel Meridien Lav. Expensive but beautiful spot directly on the beach! Definitely recommend for a coffee to hang out during day or a cocktail in the evening, they also serve some simple dishes: snacks/tapas that are a mixed of asian and mexican inspired dishes. You can also book their lovely cabanas/beach hut for the day (from 2 to 8 people) and spend the day there in front of the beach and get drinks and food served directly at your cabanas! I recommend booking in advance especially if you are a large group to be sure to get one of their bigger one.

By far my favorite coffee&bar spot but further away from my home in Stobrec neighbourhood! Beloved terrace with magnificent view above the sea! Full of locals. Nice staff. Justmore far away: 30min walk from home, or 5min by car! Also recommend getting a swim at the beach just under the coffee, a lovely beach with pines, less crowded

Really nice.

There is also a sand beach just down our road (on the left side), it is lovely for a promenade as it was well equipped (benches, chairs along the promenade), and easy to grab something to eat and drink on the go at the small fast food shops there while watching the sea. For swimming and spending day at the beach I prefer the small pebble beach just on the right nearby, and this one for grabbing food and a nice walk. There you'll also find the playground for kids, 2 beach volley courts and a bike lane.

This is a beach I definitely recommend especially if you go to visit Omis or Makarska, as it is located 15 min by car from our place on the way from our home to Omis, it is one of my favorite beach by far, hidden from the road with great cafés&restaurants over it. More precisely it is located at the end of village Dugi Rat and right at the beginning of Duce. It is a beautiful pebbly beach with crystal clear water which is also the only fine gravel beach in Duce. Next to this beach, in a natural shade, there is a famous restaurant/tavern" Bracera" that I also recommend for lunch, and a coffee bar "Grota" where you can find refreshment from the heat. Above the beach, behind the gas station Euro Tank there is a big parking space where you can park, so to reach the parking lot, turn right by the gas station and there you go. All along this road and after, from our home to Omis, there are many beaches known as "Duce beaches" but "Glavica" is my favorite!

The beach is a large sand beach located in Omis and surrounded by mountains, which makes the view breathtaking. Beautiful view, coffees and bars nearby and parking not so far (6kn/hour). Definitely recommend and take the time to visit lovely old Omis if you stop here.

Žnjan is the name of the neighborhood, located 5min by car from our home, along the sea on the eastern shore of Split center where you will find several beaches next to one another connected by a lovely promenade. There is a lot of parkings and large parking spots so it's a beloved local people spot! There are also a lot of bars and restaurants, but also playground for kids (trampolines, bouncy castles and electric scooters for kids). It can get crowded but at least it is really huge and you can just walk from one beach to another to find the best spot for you!

If you are travelling with your furry family member ;) you can bring him to this beach dedicated to dogs. Located 7min by car from our home Duilovo beach is a great spot where you can let them swim alone or join them, around is also a lovely walkway where you can go walking and even unleash your dog freely. Duilovo beach is also the first beach of the Žnjan neighborhood along the sea where you will find many beaches next to one another connected via a lovely promenade with a lot of parking places.

Essentials: Supermarkets, Bakeries and shops (ATM, pharmacy etc)

Here I'll start by listing the supermarkets closest to home and go further away up to big shopping malls: there are 3 supermarkets, 2 bakeries, pastry shop, pharmacy etc all accessible few minutes by foot from home just down our road, so you can find everything you need for your stay at the shops available down our road without having to drive far away with your car. But if needed and if you want to do clothing or accessory shopping, I also list you here the big malls.
Super practical small shop that is the closest to our home as it is just down our road at the beginning of it (300m, 4min walk). Small but well stocked, you'll find everything you need here as it offers many different items from locally sourced fruits&vegetables, meats to wine to beach supplies and more. Also nice and friendly staff! Recommend this place whenever you just need to grab something quickly for our home, you'll find all the basic and mostly needed stuff here.

You can leave your car here and visit other shops or cafes and the marina a short walk away.

The closest ATM bankomat from our home, right by the entrance of the super market Ribola, 5 min by foot from our home, I definitely recommend getting your cash there as it accepts all cards and OTP is a locally well known implemented bank

"Pekara" Bakery for bread
Very good bakery (great bread and sweet treats) but further from our home (25min by foot or 5min by car) with small parking and ATM right next to it. Usually busy as loved by locals, with people waiting outside. Payment by card not possible, only cash in Kuna (HRK). I definitely recommend to stop there if you go to walk or hang out in Stobrec neighbourhood

This open air cinema is a must do if you can take time to watch a movie in the center of Split, just above the beach Bacvice, maybe combine it to a dinner in the city or a night out. The movies are in the original languages of the films with both Croatian and English subtitles! There is also a fast food right by the entrance of the kino that makes local famous "Cevapi" among others, and that can be the ideal combination before or after the movie.

Animal protective foundation Split helps and supports work of a local NO KILL animal shelter just few km out of Split. They offer several activities: come at their shelter help take car and cuddle, animals, take them on a dog beach in split to swim, or just take them for a walk. Not the typical kind of event you would do on a trip, and that’s why it was so special and gives you an opportunity to support this wonderful cause that is worth every single penny (it’s 100% for a good cause). Lovely hosts with a great mission. This activity is not meant to get you to adopt a dog, just to give the dogs a nice experience, it was nice that he was this honest. every single one loved being with people and getting attention. They are so adorable and people friendly. I definitely recommend this to everyone who isn't totally scared of dogs.
