Kotor is seafood-focused, but cafes, pizzerias, and naturally vegan Mediterranean dishes let plant-based travellers eat well.
Read the full guide
While Montenegrin cuisine centres on seafood and meat, Kotor has grown more welcoming to plant-based travellers. Forza Cafe offers fresh juices, salads, and vegan-friendly breakfast and brunch options. Bokun Wine Bar serves Mediterranean sharing plates, several of which can be made vegan, in a cosy setting. Pizzeria Pronto offers vegetable pizzas and pasta that can be ordered without cheese. Traditional konobas serve naturally vegan sides such as grilled vegetables, blitva (chard with potato), bean stew (pasulj), ajvar, and fresh salads, easy to combine into a satisfying meal. The Kotor green market is excellent for fresh fruit, vegetables, olives, and bread for self-catering. Learn 'bez mesa' (without meat) and 'bez sira' (without cheese) to order with ease.
