Zrno Bio Bistro

Zrno Bio Bistro is an organic vegan bistro at Medulicheva ulica 20 (Medulićeva), near Ilica in Zagreb. It is described as Croatia's first fully organic vegan restaurant, with produce from its own eco-farm, and that farm-to-table link is the main point of difference from other plant-based restaurants in the capital. The dishes named for the venue are organic vegan lunches and fresh juices, so the menu centres on daytime meals, bowls and drinks made with organic ingredients. The focus on organic and own-farm produce appeals to visitors with environmental or health priorities, and the fully vegan menu removes any need to check ingredients for dairy or eggs. The bistro has a relaxed, wholesome atmosphere, with a calm daytime mood and a low noise level, and it suits solo diners and small groups. Dress is casual. Typical spending is EUR 9-17 per person (roughly USD 10-20), which is inexpensive for organic food. Opening hours are listed as Monday to Saturday from 10 AM to 9:30 PM, with no Sunday service, so Sunday visitors need to plan an alternative. The venue operates on a walk-in basis, and reservations are not usually necessary. The phone number is +385 1 4847 540 for any enquiries. The location near Ilica, the main shopping street, places it a short walk from the Lower Town and from Ban Jelacic Square, and makes it a convenient lunch stop during a shopping or sightseeing day. Among plant-based options in Zagreb, it sits next to Nishta, which offers a daily changing menu, and Vegehop, which specialises in vegan burgers.
