This is the working pharmacy in the Franciscan Monastery just inside the Pile Gate. When I travel, I like to bring gifts that are unique to the place I visit, but not overly touristy, and this fit the bill perfectly. The pharmacy still makes several face and hand creams and infused water (rose and lavendar) to original recipes from 1317 and sells them in the shop. If you tell them its for gifts, they will put them in special bags too.
I bought lemon hand lotion, rose face cream, and a moisturiser with jojoba and menthol that smells exactly like a lemon yoghurt! It is all gorgeous and only available from here.
about 40-50 kn per jar. Leave a Comment Theme: Bath and BeautyAddress: Just inside Pile GateDirections: You will see the pharmacy sign over the doorway set back from the Stradun between the church and monastery immediately inside Pile Gate on the left.

This tiny little bakery just off the Stradun is the perfect place to get breakfast or a snack and is open long hours (eary morning until midnight!). It's very cheap, too.
We regularly got breakfast from here - usually a cream cake for each of us and a small loaf of fresh bread, to be eaten on the steps of the large Onofrian Fountain (sometimes with cheese from the market). Every day there are different cakes so I never got to try all the ones I wanted!
For a loaf of bread and two cakes we spent about 14 kn. Definitely a budget option, but so yummy! Leave a Comment Theme: Food and DrinkAddress: Izmedu PolacaDirections: Walking down the Stradun towards Luza, turn right at Nikole Bozidarevica and then almost immediately left. Tante Gusti is the tiny doorway just round the corner, probably with a queue of people spilling onto the street.

 Farmer's Market by karenincalifornia
I don't know how often this market is open, but it was open the morning we were there, and was closed down by about 2:00 pm. It was located in a small plaza on the east side of the old town. Leave a Comment Theme: Other

When I first went to Dubrovnik, nearly 40 years ago, there were women selling their handwork from stalls set up in the shade of the city's walls down near the harbour - I was delighted to see they're still there today.
You'll also find stalls set up along the wall-top walkway.
You should be able to pay in euros and US dollars as well as Croatian kunars.
Hand embroidered table linen is the main stock. It's great to see that it is local work, albeit obviously produced in some sort of organized cottage industry - everyone has much the same patterns and prices are pretty well the same, but it's attractively done and fairly priced (an embroideress will know exactly how many hours have gone into it)
I paid US$90 for a large table cloth with eight napkins - and more than happy with that price. Leave a Comment Theme: Home Furnishing

The other market is in the Old Town in a square called Gunduliceva poljana. This one is characterized by mostly old-timers selling their fresh vegetables, olive oils and other goods. Everything was clearly fresh and it was interesting to see the very homemade packaging that some of the items were sold in. Leave a Comment Theme: Food and Drink

 A wine steward in Croatia by karenincalifornia
After paying our traffic ticket fine, and because we were there for only one day, our traffic ticket fine (150 kuna) became our unit of exchange. A good bottle of Croatian wine costs a little less (about 120 kuna) than one Croatian traffic ticket.
One traffic ticket or less Leave a Comment Theme: Food and DrinkAddress: On the Stradun

Avjar, roasted red peppers, aubergine garlic and oil, and maybe some chilli, is the flavour of Croatia in a jar.
Everyone loves cookies and you'll find some Croatian specialities here, paprenjak - a biscuit flavoured with honey, walnuts and pepper, the recipe is reputed to be hundreds of years old - or perhaps you'd prefer seizis - nut coated biscuits with a strawberry jam filling.
Air-dried ham (prsut) - if your home bases' quarantine regulations allow it, beautiful almond nougat, sour cherry syrup (maraschino cherries originated here in Dalmatia), dried fig jam - they're all typically Croatian, and delicious. Leave a Comment Theme: Food and Drink

Algoritam has the best English language selection in town and you shouldn't have any trouble finding various travel guides or just some good pleasure reading. I paid 70kn for the paperback. Leave a Comment Theme: BooksAddress: Placa 8, along Stadun
