Bakeries (Pekara)
I’ll start of here because whether you are a tourist, local or an expat, everyone enjoys the freshest bread, croissants or pie when they are out shopping in Tivat. Montenegrins love their donuts and they make them fresh and they make them great! For the best little chocolate donuts (krofne) – fried, with a little Nutella filling and dusted with sugar do visit the Pekara DavidoviΔ in the centre of town. So, so fresh! The bakery ‘La Parisienne 4‘ has the best Spanakopita and they deliver. Look on the map for our favorite Bakeries in Tivat.
The breads are mostly all freshly baked, with little to none gluten, healthier than the store bought shelf breads. It also means it needs to be eaten quickly as there are no preservatives to make it last long. Don’t worry, they are so deliciously fresh they don’t last long anyway.
Health & Personal Care
These are great places to have at your fingertips when it comes to grooming.
Hair & Beauty
For men the barber, Barber Shop Sabic, at the port is great for personal hair styling. For the ladies, Ε abiΔ Hair & Beauty Salon is just across from the men’s barber.
Health Shop & Chemist
In town, near the bus stop is a small little health shop, BioSunce. They have a great supply of all things healthy from vitamins, health snacks and so much more.
The cosmetic shop around the corner stocks a great variety of hair products, deodorants, perfumes,make up, shaving etc. All things you would need for personal hygiene and care. Lots to choose from.
The chemist in town is also conveniently nearby, they are always helpful. All your personal shopping and grooming – done!
Grocery Stores
There are a few convenient grocers around Tivat town to shop at but if you are looking for more variety and a monthly shopping spree then best to head a little out of town – a short drive to Radanovici. Here you will find all the larger supermarkets in a row.
Voli – Grocery Store
A brand new Voli supermarket has recently opened its doors in Radanovici – its new, its fresh and it has lots to choose from. They have the best fruit and veg section out of all the supermarkets. Their basic foods, like bread and milk, are also very well priced. The raw meat is displayed nicely but their meat prices are a little pricier than the competition.
HDL – Grocery Store
They were very good but they will need to step up their fruit and veg section if they want to stay in the running. Their meats are well priced. They have great freezer fruits and veg – nice if you making health shakes in the mornings.
Wines & Malts
Most wines, especially local brands can be bought at all the supermarkets and convenience stores. But if you are looking for that special bottle to pair with your meal, then Wine Empire will give you just that. They have top wines from around the globe, smooth, full bodied…. white, blends, rose, red – to suit your palate. Sadly, they are missing some top award winning wines from South Africa , some of our favorite wines originate from here.
Fish
For fresh seafood look no further than Montefish. They have a selection of local fish, calamari, mussels and spices for you to bring a seafood feast or mussel pot to your table. They also have a selection of wines for you to round off the meal.
General
Pet stores
There is a large pet store in the port called Pet Corner and another as you drive in to town. Please buy an extra bag of pellets and donate to the animal shelters or feed the strays. There are so many abandoned stray dogs and cats that would be so grateful.
Print Stores
We always go to Foto Focus for photos and printing of everyday documents. They are next to one of our favorite bakeries in town, so we hand in our print request, conveniently stop for a quick coffee next door and then go collect again. The guy that works there is so friendly and well priced.
Print All is for any other printing you may have, for work or personal – a “no parking” sign, stickers or labels etc. you might need. Their service is great.
Gifts & All
If you are looking for a great gift store then JUMBO has it all. From toys, baby items, to home gifts, vases, kitchen accessories, to hair care, snorkels, pens, art things, and ALL…
Watersport equipment
You are in Tivat, on Boka Bay – you will need something from this shop. Una Montenegro have canoes, life jackets, ski’s, fishing rods, rock shoes – waterproof yourself here – with water this blue in the bay you need to be active.
Get Connected
If you need data to find your way around then Mtel can get you connected. They have packages at great prices. They have a tourist package for 10 EUR which lasts a month and to many gigs to finish, just take your passport when buying. Their products are good, staff are friendly but unfortunately there is always a que. Right next door providing some stiff competition is 1ONE.
Hardware stores
Kips and Okov are the major players in the hardware sector. DRVmont is just behind. But there are a few hardware specialist stores to shop at in Tivat that offer that little bit extra to put you one step ahead in your reno project. Namely the Paint store – DOO “Mondrian” in RadanoviΔi. Great staff, always happy and eager to assist.
For convenience, you have a great little hardware (Arsenal Elektro), paint (Color Shop) and lighting shop (Temas) as you drive in to Tivat. They are all right next to each other and all give great service.
Home Stores
It is not easy hunting for things for your home in Tivat. So it helps to know where to go.
Cungu & co
Here you will find lovely home decorative items, crockery, towels, general kitchen supplies, outside furniture, a few inside small furniture items etc. I love this shop, they have a great collection.
EntExt
Another favorite and if I could, I would most likely take it all home! The staff are fantastic! They truly go out of their way to assist and the range of great items are worth the price.
Electrical Home Appliance
There are 2 competitors for electrical appliance shopping in Tivat, 1 being Tehnomax and the other is Beko, I would look no further for Electrical Appliances for your home – they both have all the reliable known brands and friendly service in most of there stores.
JYSK
Great for decorative items and for home furniture such as desks, chairs, vases, linen etc. They are very similar to the IKEA brand, you buy furniture, take it home and assemble. They also have some great items.
Euro Casa
For Quality cupboards, beds, kitchens, etc. this is the store for you. Pricey but they have design and quality. Rest assured, you will sleep peacefully on their beds.
