In-Depth Information
(mains €6-11; 8am-midnight Mar-Oct)
Restaurants don't come much more swashbuckling than
this replica of a 19th-century boat gifted to King Nikola by the Turks, permanently
docked by Virpazar's main square. Traditional Montenegrin grilled meat and lake fish are
served on deck or below.
Virski Pub
With Nikšićko beer on tap, sport on the TV and pool tables out the back, this is a much
more pub-like proposition than your average Montenegrin cafe-bar. If you want to mitig-
ate the damage, the bakery next door sells pizza for €1.
