Restaurant Goranci — Restaurant in Local community Goranci

Konoba Goranci is a lovely, unassuming restaurant with a comprehensive and really interesting menu, high in the hills above Mostar but taking only 35 minutes to drive there from the city centre - and a very beautiful drive up a road wide enough to not be dangerous.

The staff are all friendly, and the food well cooked and generously portioned, but the hit for me is that the restaurant is the starting point for a family-friendly (or, in my case, unfit middle-aged woman friendly) walk or cycle ride.

Definitely a must-go place for anyone spending more than a...

The food was amazing, really nice hidden restaurant in a rural area. Maybe the owner will hate me, but after the delicious food, the second best thing were the dogs.

It was lovely, that the place was living. It was full with people from different age, kids, adults, elderly people. And the dogs just made that even better, it gave the place the sparkles, the ultimate kindness. I have the best pics...
