1. Life According to Kawa
PloceEverything in this well-curated shop just outside the Ploče Gate is local, artisanal, and fun, from jewelry and clothing to cards, homeware, craft beer, and wine. There is also a small co-working space and a fully-stocked room for international grocery items that are hard to find elsewhere in town. Pop in for some shopping, or just hang out on the couch with a local Cogito-brand coffee and chat with the staff who are happy to share tips and help plan out your stay.

2. Open Markets
There are two open markets in Dubrovnik where you can get a wonderful glimpse into local life as well as pick up a few goodies. In the Old Town, the morning market in Gundulić Square brims with local delicacies such as dried figs, liqueurs, and candied fruit and almonds. Plan your visit for noon to see the local man who feeds the pigeons—it's quite the spectacle to see hundreds of pigeons flock to the square in anticipation. Across town at the Gruž Market, local people arrive every morning from around 6 am to pick up fresh produce, fish, and flowers; it's sometimes easy to forget that Dubrovnik is a living working city, but this market and the café-bars around it are an excellent reminder.
