Konoba Pupo

Konoba Pupo is a compact Dalmatian tavern at Miha Pracata 8 in Dubrovnik's Old Town, in a lane south of the Stradun, in Croatia's Dubrovnik-Neretva region. The konoba, a traditional Dalmatian tavern format, serves seafood and steaks in a small dining space with outdoor seating on the lane. The kitchen focuses on well-prepared seafood dishes, steaks and pasta, and the menu stays close to the familiar repertoire of grilled fish, shellfish and meat that visitors expect in a Dalmatian konoba. Homemade cakes are a notable extra and make the venue a reasonable stop for dessert and coffee as well as a full meal. Because the menu lists a short run of core dishes rather than a single emblematic plate, ordering the catch of the day or a seafood platter is the most common way to sample the kitchen. The dining room is small and informal, with a family-run feel, casual dress and low to moderate noise. Outdoor tables on the lane add seating in warm months and give a view of Old Town life away from the busiest part of the Stradun. The wine list focuses on Croatian bottles, including Dalmatian whites and Peljesac reds, along with local beer and spirits. Prices are mid-range, about EUR 35-60 per person for two courses and a glass of wine. The restaurant opens early, around 8AM, and runs until about 11PM, so it can serve breakfast, lunch or dinner. Walk-ins are generally accepted outside the peak summer evening hours; reservations by phone on +385 20 323 555 are sensible for dinner in July and August because the dining room has few tables. The location, a short walk from Luza Square and the Cathedral, suits a lunch break between sights.
