Dubrovnik Bakeries

Bakeries open around 6am and anchor the cheap breakfast: burek with cheese or meat, savoury rolls and fresh loaves, with the busiest counters near the Gruz market, the bus station and the Old Town gates. Cake and pastry shops take the afternoon shift, and the local specialities to look for are arancini candied peel and the custard-based rozata pudding that appears in pastry-case form. Most bakery counters are cash-friendly, quick and open seven days in season.
