Go through the main gate (Pile), down the Stradun to the end of the street. It’s just you and every other tourist, many off-loaded in clumps from the cruise ships, funneled between walls and uninteresting shops. Turn right at the end of the street, following more tourists, and make a right before you get to the end. Here’s a tiny... More

We had a drink at this whole through the wall little bar. The view is phenomenal overlooking an island. Service is quite slow, but who's in a hurry if you're overlooking paradise? They have no running water, but have the most beautiful view from their porta-potty :)! Definitely good for a beer!

You must find your way to this little gem of a place. It sits right on the water and is a perfect place to sit, relax, have a drink and enjoy the beauty that surrounds Dubrovnik. There are some large rocks just below the balcony of the bar that you can sunbathe on while listening to the waves crash.

Walk around the inside of the city wall on the seaward side and you will come across a tiny opening in the wall with a sign saying "Cold drinks". Duck through the opening ( watch your head) and you will find a magical place for drinks especially at sunset. Shaded Tables are arranged along tiny concrete terraces on the cliffs.... More

This bar is a little off the beaten track, accessible only through a small unsuspecting doorway through the city walls in a side street of the main town. On the otherwise of the doorway (marked only with a small sign reading 'cold drinks'), you'll find yourself in a spectacular little outdoor bar carved into the rock face between the city... More

Why is this so hard to find in Tripadvisor? I typed in various options and each time got a 'no hit'. I have even typed in 'Cafe Buza' and got nothing. ?? A mystery. Anyway, if you are in Dubrovnik, go here. Sunbathe on the rocks, dip in the water below, then come out and sit. And sit. And watch... More

We went for a wedding, and I will never forget this bar. Every day we lay on the rocks, gently warmed by the sun with the sound of the Adriatic and it was paradise. This bar is an absolute must-see in Dubrovnik. It's cut in to the rock face looking out to see. You feel like you're at the edge... More

To us it is a bit misleading that “Café Buza” is listed/ranked for “nightlife in Dubrovnik” by tripadvisor – this is certainly a bar for the daytime ! A big „thank-you“ to tripadvisor and cruisecritic, we only were aware of this place because of you. We had no problem to find this hole in the wall as we knew what... More

The view from here is quite spectacular. We aren't big drinkers, but we bought some drinks just to sit and enjoy the amazing location, and were quite glad to have done this. There are quite a few stairs to access this cafe, plus you will want to explore, so it might not be the best venue for travelers with disabilities... More

We first noticed this bar whilst walking the city walls and we found this bar a lot easier than we thought we would - reviews on the internet imply it's difficult to find. Walking through the doorway in the wall you're met with a gorgeous view of the water and the island of Locrum. The bar is set out over... More
