For a cake and coffee experience that the French namesake of this cute little café would be proud of, pop into Amélie just down the hill from the Zagreb Cathedral. The wooden tables and cozy white interior give the place a charming, even slightly rustic feel, and the surprisingly varied selection of delectable cakes and pies will release all your caloric inhibitions. This unique gem among Zagreb watering holes offers unique sweets you won't find anywhere else, including an abundance of ice cream options.

Carnivores, pescatarians, and vegetarians will all find something to delight in at Beštija, which is located in a peaceful courtyard tucked away from the buzzing city center. Enjoy eating outside during the summer or head to the desinger interior, which features furniture procued by a local art dealer and a Picasso remake by academic painter Petra Potočnjak. Remember to leave room for the lavender-sage panna cotta for dessert.

Climb the stone stairs onto the spacious terrace or dine inside the softly lit 13th-century manor, one of the most impressive examples of feudal architecture in Croatia. Kastel's offerings reflect its geographic location, representing both the Adriatic Sea and the continental plains with delicious detail. While the menu is seasonal, their vibrantly balanced green and black risottos impress year-round.

Think of your favorite bakery, ice cream parlor, and basic café rolled into one, and that's Cremme. With its bright white interior, its walls gaily decorated with quirky graffiti, and its extensive selection of cookies, brownies, and cakes hard to find on this side of the Atlantic, you'll simply have to stop here for a little while. Try the mint fudge brownie, since you're unlikely to find a version this authentic anywhere else in this part of the world.

Nestled in a verdant dale in Tuškanac Park, a 15-minute walk from the center in a low-rise building that might be mistaken for a ranch-style house, this prestigious fish restaurant specializes in creative Mediterranean fare, with the house favorites including buzara (stew prepared with shellfish and scampi and/or fish) and sea bass fillets in saffron and scampi sauce, as well as appetizers like avocado with scampi, not to mention a few meat delicacies. The dining room is light and airy, with candlelit tables, a wooden floor, palmlike little trees, and colorful abstract art. There's also an adjoining wine bar. In warm weather there's outdoor seating on a spacious, leafy terrace, and a playground just outside invites children to scamper about while parents rest on benches. Reservations are recommended.

The latest creation behind the brilliant minds at Pod Zidom, Ficlek is located right between the Zagreb Cathedral and Dolac Market. It is the first resturant in the city to serve only authentic Zagreb fare prepared in traditional ways (think pasta with cabbage, Zagreb-style meat cuts, and soups cooked just like Croatian grandmas make them). The interior design is modern, but also features old-school touches like classic masonry heater tiles. If you grab a seat on the outdoor terrace, you'll be treated to views of the Zagreb Cathedral. Meals change seasonally (and ingredients are procured from nearby Dolac Market), but you won't go wrong with whatever you order. All the better if you're in town while the to-die-for chestnut dumplings swimming in a chocolate dip are on the menu.

Visiting this rustic tavern is like stepping into a friend's home, although your friend's home is unlikely to have a stuffed fawn and a pair of kuna (a large, weasel-like creature), the national currency's namesake, on the wall. All produce used here is supplied by local farmers, and the menu features typical Zagorje dishes, including zagorski štrukli (baked pastry filled with cheese) and pura s mlincima (turkey with savory pastries). The use of kuna dates back from when the fur of this large, weasel-like creature was in fact a currency. The garden affords sublime views down onto Veliki Tabor fortress.

Don't let the casual café fare fool you: this place, where you'll feel as if you were sitting in an art gallery or perhaps the living room of a wealthy, art-collecting uncle, is anything but standard. Located just up the hill (first right) from the Stone Gate, it is a perfect place to take a load off after the steep climb into Gornji Grad, before heading on to seeing the parliament, Museum of Broken Relationships, and St. Mark's Church. If you're lucky, the weather will be fine and you'll find a seat on the charming outside terrace, perched atop the passage leading down to the Stone Gate.

With unadorned log walls, wood-beam ceilings, white-curtained windows, lively Croatian folk music playing, and an open kitchen with an open hearth, this is exactly what a restaurant in a great national park should be. Fill up on hearty lička juha (a creamy soup of lamb, vegetables, and eggs), followed by boiled lamb with vegetables, suckling pig, or a "Lika Bundle" (renowned Lika lamb and potatoes— known as the best in Croatia—served with locally made plum rakija and veggies). Meat and poultry are the focus here; grilled trout is usually the only fish on the menu. Finish off with an apple (or cheese) strudel. The place is buzzing with tourists, but it's one of the only decent restaurants for miles around.

Located in the heart of Međimurje County, in the picturesque town of Lopatinec, only 6 km (4 miles) away from Čakovec, Međimurski dvori is known across the region for its unique ambience, top gastronomic offerings, and friendly and professional staff. A seat anywhere near the beautiful wooden fireplace makes for an extra-special experience; you'll feel like you're in an upscale but extremely cozy Međimurje cabin. The warm, brick-and-wood interior features traditional decor in warm tones, in harmony with the fairytale nature that surrounds the restaurant. Don't leave without trying the specialty of Međimurje, Međimurska gibanica: a three-layer cake of cheese, apple, and poppy-seed fillings.

Wedged between the cathedral and the Dolac farmer's market, jazzy bistro Pod Zidom offers a creative take on traditional Croatian dishes, making the most of fresh ingredients at its doorstep. The chef is renowned for his beef cheek, served up with a different sauce depending on the season and cooked for 12 hours before making it to your plate. Wash it down with a bottle from the impressive array of Croatian wines (from all four wine regions) available. Pod Zidom serves from its own wine label too. Keeping it close to traditional values, the emphasis is on meat and fish dishes but varies according to what is in season and available. Everything is homemade here, from the bread to any sort of pickled goods. You can sleep onsite at the ultra-exclusive Pod Zidom Rooms mini-hotel, which features just four rooms (all of which feature designer decor and views of the Zagreb Cathedral inner courtyard) above the restaurants.

A few blocks southwest of the main square, Vinodol is an elegant spot both locals and tourists flock to when they hanker for traditional meaty fare such as veal and lamb, pork with plum sauce, or, for starters, zagorska juha (Zagorje-style potato soup with ham and mushrooms). Enjoy all this in a spacious, shaded courtyard or inside under brick-vaulted ceilings and amid low lighting that contrives to give you an elegant, wine-cellar sensation even though you're not in a cellar at all.
