Restoran Šadrvan
An established restaurant in a vine-covered courtyard on the north side of the Old Bridge, serving Bosnian dishes in traditional metalware.
Located at Jusovina 11, this is one of the oldest restaurants in the city, featuring an Ottoman-style courtyard shaded by grapevines. Staff wear traditional attire, and dishes are served in classic Mostar metal tableware. Specialties include dolma, klepe, Begova čorba, mixed grills, and the 'Nacional' platter, with baklava for dessert. It is often fully booked from 19:00 during the peak season from June to September, so reserving 24–48 hours in advance is recommended. Given its location next to the Old Bridge, pricing is on the higher side; some guides note that while the setting is outstanding and the food is consistent, it may not be mind-blowing. Main courses are around 14–22 BAM or higher.
