A modest dining room in Banjole keeps the focus firmly on the Adriatic catch. Plates arrive with bright herbs, local olive oil, and clean sea flavours.

The Skoko family transforms each morning’s catch, including overlooked fish parts, with rare precision. Every course feels personal, resourceful, and deeply rooted in Istria. You leave remembering the sea differently.

Cafe Uliks occupies a historic stone building next to Pula’s ancient Roman arch. Inside, dark wood panels and polished brass details create a quiet, relaxed sanctuary. The aroma of fresh, locally roasted beans fills the air as baristas prepare single-origin espresso. The outdoor terrace features a life-size bronze statue of James Joyce at a wooden table.

This cafe honors the famous Irish writer who taught English in this very building. Visitors love the slow pace, the excellent coffee, and the rich sense of local history. A quiet afternoon spent here leaves you feeling inspired by Pula’s timeless literary charm.
