Festival Café<br />
At the western end of the<br />
Stradun, this café has a mellow<br />
<strong>and</strong> sophisticated air. Director’s<br />
chairs on the pavement are great<br />
for sitting back in <strong>and</strong> watching<br />
the world go by. If you’ve been<br />
hankering after single-malt<br />
Scotch whisky, look no further.<br />

in Croatia. Popular with locals<br />
<strong>and</strong> welcoming to visitors, it also<br />
offers tapas. Dropeva 5 • Map J5<br />
