Istria is Croatia's Best-Kept Culinary Secret

"Bora Nera, Istria's first specialty coffee roaster, also appears to be closed when I pull up to the address—not the café I expected, but owners Matteo Cardin and Erika Forlani Cardin's terra-cotta-colored home in Vodnjan." - Travel + Leisure Editors

Great coffees, been buying from them since 2022 and never disappointed. Brazil on filter is really great with the sweet and cherry like notes. Totally recommend!

Fabulous hosts and coffee experts. You can really learn so much from them during tasting sessions on specialty coffee, and understand concept in full, production process from growing to preparing. Excellent testing sessions not only coffee but also other coffee related products. Home atmosphere and well spent time with them. Coffee lovers must visit location one of a kind in Istria.

I sincerely believe that if all owners were as passionate as Erika, the world would be a better place. From excellent coffee and beautiful cups, to heart-warming hospitality - everything was perfect. Until next time!

Absolutely amazing place! All ordered drinks were amazing, coffee tasting was very interesting and informative; we bought the beans as well and coffee we make at home now with those beans is also great. Other highlights are the beautiful garden and the owners! Super friendly and welcoming :)

Such a lovely speciality coffee place with a cute garden 😊 Owner is super knowledgeable and friendly. We got cappuccinos (they have plant milk) and tried the coffee cherry tea which was very nice (we had never heard of it before!). Definitely worth a visit if you like coffee!

That was a great cup od coffee. The beans were great, we tried Kenya a Costa Rica. Roasted right there! This place is from “the same shelf” like The Barn or Naughty Dog. It’s really all about the coffee, no snacks on the menu.

My husband and I stopped over on Sunday after contacting Matteo through the Bora Nera Instagram account page. Not only where he and his family very knowledgable about coffee and other natural plants and fruits, they are super passionate about what they do and they are also very lovely and friendly people. After moving from Zagreb to Pula, we missed our specialty coffee cafes and me being lactose intolerant, makes it even more tricky in Istria for me to enjoy good coffee with milk. But they also had non-cows milk and the coffee was outstanding. We are from Melbourne, so we are very particular about our speciality coffee, and Bora Nera is one of the best we have tried in Croatia. They also have a nice garden with the sea in the far distance so you can enjoy your awesome coffee moment in a tranquil environment.
