Guidebook for Rijeka
Food Scene
A basic restaurant with moderate menu offer. What is really great about this restaurant is that it is really cheap and you get really big portions. This is where families and students usually go if they want to have some lunch in the restaurant - yet they don't want to be too formal and pay too much.

Pricy and classy. Beautiful during nighttime since it's just on the coast. Not for everyone, though.

Don't visit this one - it's fake. Go to "Trg Ivana Klobučarića" and try some burek with meat. This is the best thing you could get for hangovers, or for a brunch. There are also options to have it with fresh cheese or spinach, but the way you were supposed to eat is with the meat.

One of the best Pizza restaurants in the city, if you ask me. There is also a huge offer of other meals. It's near to the old fort that you should definitely visit.

Čevapi u lepinji and ajvar is a MUST if you ever want to tell other that you've been to any country in the Balkans. Just do it. Enjoy it. Love life.

A great place for couples. It's a really nice and cozy place to have dinner at - it's inspired by Croatian "konoba", which is typical for the coastal regions.
It's just next to the castle, so you could enjoy a beautiful view of Rijeka during the nighttime - just after you had a delicious meal.

A great Pub to have a night out, but only if you listen to Croatian music (i.e. tamburaši).
Average age of people going to this pub would be around 30 - which is great for some guys that like older chicks, and it's also good for people that want to have somewhat more "mature" partying.

An amazing nightclub - the best one in Rijeka if you ask me. It is a really small nightclub, but the music is more alternative.
This place is both great and really bad at the same time - just what you are looking for once you've had some drinks :)

Your daily dose of generic EDM and modern Pop music. People out there tend to be a bit boring, in my opinion.

Turbo folk venue; the best time to visit is on Wednesdays. This kind of music is really something, I'd suggest going there as hammered as you could be - NOT BEFORE!

Sightseeing
A really beautiful place to go and have a drink during the night. We usually buy some drinks and climb over the walls to enjoy the view of the night sky. It's really nice if there is a storm in Istra region.

You should climb Mt. Vojak, that is also accessible by a car, and enjoy the view of the Kvarner Bay and Istra. It is really beautiful during nighttime.
Just be aware you take the old road from Rijeka, and not the highway - because you'll end up paying tunnel fee for no reason.
