First, we will start with the restaurants because these are an unavoidable part of the soul and tradition of every city. Located in the small village of Morinj, Catovica Mlini restaurant is set in its own mystical oasis offering delicious Mediterranean food and exquisite wine. This restaurant is popular for its local and foreign fish dishes, with very friendly and expert service.

If you prefer the old towns of Montenegro, at restaurant Trpeza you can find some of the most amazing seafood dishes and other Mediterranean delicacies and all of it located in the beautiful Old Town of Kotor.

When speaking about the Mediterranean food, listed as the oldest restaurant in Kotor, Scala Santa offers a wide array of seafood, served by the friendly personnel. Located in a quiet corner of Old Town in Kotor, with a brilliant setting, Scala Santa is a great place to escape the hustle of the city.

For all of you who prefer to spend their time in more exclusive places, we recommend restaurants of Regent Porto Montenegro where dinning is âalways a mouth-watering affairâ.

At Chedi Lustica Bay, Chefs in the restaurants ask you to relax and savour the variety of fresh flavours they are offering. From the Spot Restaurant located at the marina promenade to the Rock Beach Bar, there is a fine selection of organic ingredients and meals.

In Montenegro, pubs represent a mixture of traditional and modern; most of them are found in Niksic and Podgorica in the central part of Montenegro and with the best prices of a wide range of beers and other liquids.

Sea Dance Festival is Montenegroâs top music festival and takes place in late August/early September each year.

Clubs and Discos

The names of Montenegroâs best clubs and discos are known throughout the region. Like we have said, during the summer months with the open-air clubs and bars, Montenegro becomes the epicentre of the nightlife in this part of the Balkans, and we donât exaggerate when we say that party never really ends.

Clubs are most crowded from 11 pm until 3 am on Fridays and Saturdays nights, but some of them are full throughout the week. Some of the widely known clubs are Top Hill Budva, Maximus Kotor, Discoteca Budva etc.
