Zagreb Croatia Dining What You Must Experience In 48 Hours Visiting

For those visiting Zagreb be sure to get ready for some delicious Food & to discover Croatia’s amazing wines. Please visit my Croatian Wine post to read about Croatia Wines more.  For what sights to see, check out my 48 Hours Sightseeing In Zagreb post.  A few of the must eats during a visit to Zagreb include the below dining bucket list. Zagreb, Croatia. 

  • Trendy Upper Town’s Cafe Scene – Grab a coffee or a bite, relax and take in the gorgeous scenery. This relaxing over a coffee is not only relevant to Upper Town as throughout Croatia (not just Zagreb) this is very common.  It reminds me of the delicious Latte & Cakes in Vienna or the Cafe Culture in Paris. Enjoy!
  • Local Zagreb Cuisine – This came recommended by a local for us to try. The food is heartier fare then you’ll find along the coastal towns of Croatia where they focus more on seafood.
  • Sladolet (Ice Cream) – I was pleasantly surprised to find Ice Cream all over town. After trying it I learned it’s not just Ice Cream it’s delicious Ice Cream. As tasty as Italy’s Gelato so be sure to save room for this dessert treat.
  • Walk the town – Zagreb is a very manageable walking town. Strolling is the best way to see it and experience the intimate culture, shops, markets and history. For those wanting a bit more action, I suggest a City Biking Tour below which offers a bit more guidance and knowledge and a fun activity during a visit.
  • Try a Burger – When asking around to the locals (which I always do for the best tips) we learned burgers are a new trend in Zagreb. So we of course tried this hot dish here and I suggest you do too!

Zagrev Croatia DiningI highly recommend the “Sneakers” Flavor. Delicious!

Zagrev Croatia DiningRestaurant Korcula I highly recommend for a delicious meal, knowledgeable staff and great wine pairings.  Having a knowledgable server sharing wine suggestions and offering us tastes of various wines makes the meal so much fun to me and I end up with a wine I love! It’s on the middle end of price for Zagreb but was our favorite meal we enjoyed in the city.
