Cave Bar More

Cave Bar More is one of the most unusual places for a drink on the Dalmatian coast. It occupies a natural cave beneath Hotel More on the Lapad peninsula, west of the Old Town, which has been turned into a relaxing bar spread over three levels. Step inside and you are surrounded by rock; step out and you are on a terrace right by the sea.

The bar works from morning to night. Morning coffee on the terrace is a calm start to the day, a light lunch is available from the summer lunch menu, and in the evening the focus moves to cocktails, champagne and cognac. The combination of cave interior and seafront deck means you can choose between cool shade and open-air views depending on the weather. Reviewers mention swimming from the deck or nearby inlets, so bring swimwear in summer if you want to cool off between drinks.

The setting suits couples looking for a romantic evening, and groups who want something different from the Old Town bars. It is quieter than the clubs and beach bars, so conversation is easy. Reservations are not taken, so simply turn up; at sunset in high season the terrace fills, so arrive a little early. Prices are in line with a hotel bar.

The bar is listed as open from 08:00 to 23:00. It is part of Hotel More, so check directly with the bar or hotel about opening in winter, as some seafront venues reduce hours outside summer. A 2026 price list is published on the bar's website if you want to plan ahead.

Getting there from the Old Town means a bus or taxi ride to Lapad, followed by a pleasant walk along the coastal path from Lapad beach. Allow an hour or two, longer if you plan to swim. Combine it with an afternoon on Lapad's promenade or a meal in one of the restaurants near the bay. Hotel More itself is a five-star property, and the bar is a good way to experience its waterfront setting without staying there. Visit in the late afternoon to enjoy both the cave interior and the sunset over the bay and choose between a seat inside the cave and one out on the terrace as the light changes.
