Attention, foodies! On the first weekend of July (July 2nd and 3rd), from 11am to 11pm, Nikola Šubić Zrinski Square will be the scene of a fantastic street food festival where you will get a chance to taste a variety of grilled, yummy meat dishes, Asian dishes, German wurst and much more! You should consider a very light breakfast because you want to be ready for a  dish you absolutely shouldn’t miss ‒ the ham steak ‒ a 700 gram steak prepared according to a special secret recipe, thanks to which the steak has quickly become the Croatia Food Festival’s signature dish. Must try!


Ok, it seems that you somehow ended up in Zagreb with a group of friends. Let’s say that you’ve just done your portion of sightseeing in the morning and all of a sudden the beast awakens with a loud growl. It’s feeding time. You know that your big plans for a superb, unforgettable Croatian lunch will have to wait for more sensible times because your travel companions are hungry, and more importantly, YOU are hungry. Since you probably want to avoid a likely frustratingly long discussion at all costs because John wants a pizza, Jane is in the mood for seafood, Anne is a vegetarian, Ben won’t stop talking about pasta and you want to try something local. Don’t worry, everything is under control. If you’re hanging out somewhere around Zrinjevac Park or you’re picking up some nice flowers on Flower Square (as if), there is a convenient option that could satisfy the needs of the many (without outweighing the needs of the few) and it’s called Bistro Fotić.


If you’re looking for a casual and cosy bistro in Zagreb and are especially keen on big, flavorful, hearty meaty sandwiches Bistro 75 is the place! However, you will also find various other Croatian specialties on the daily menu for a very good price. We’re talking octopus goulash, tuna fish pašticada, Samobor pork chops and many more...
