Dolce Vita

Dubrovnik


Over a dozen different kinds of sumptuous, creamy gelati are on offer at this sweet spot. Alternatively, choose from a substantial menu of cakes and pancakes. You’ll have no trouble finding it, as its bright orange chairs and lanterns picturing an ice-cream cone pop out from a narrow side street just off Stradun.
