Bistro & Pizzeria Fontana in Pučišća

Bistro Pizzeria Fontana is located at the main square right by the waterfront in the centre of Pučišća and is one of the few places in the area that operates practically all day — from early morning until late evening. This is why it attracts both locals and visitors for morning coffee and breakfast, as well as for pizza or dinner in the evening.

The menu offers a wider selection than a typical pizzeria. In addition to wood-fired pizzas, it features pasta, risottos, calamari, grilled dishes, salads, burgers, and several fish options. The pizzas are thin, generously topped, and include classic combinations such as Margherita, Capricciosa, Quattro Formaggi, and pizza with prosciutto. They also serve dishes like ćevapi, chicken fillet, octopus, prawns, black risotto, and salads for a simpler lunch during the day.

Breakfast is one of the reasons Fontana is quite busy in the morning. They offer eggs prepared in various ways, toast, sandwiches, simple brunch combinations, and coffee, making it a popular spot for those heading to the beach or catching a ferry. The restaurant opens around 7 am and is one of the few places in Pučišća where you can sit down for breakfast without prior planning.

The drinks menu includes a standard selection of draft beers, cocktails, juices, and Dalmatian wines, with craft beer 5th Element frequently mentioned as part of their offerings. The wine list is not extensive but covers the essential local wines that most people enjoy with pizza or fish dishes.

The interior is simple, with most patrons opting to sit outside on the terrace by the waterfront. In the evenings, it can get quite noisy as the terrace is practically on the main promenade, and during events in the Pučišća summer, there are often few free tables available. During the season, there may be a wait for food, especially after 8 pm, but the kitchen generally operates quickly given the size of the menu.

Fontana is not a restaurant focused on modern gastronomy or a quiet dinner; rather, it serves as a classic Dalmatian bistro for breakfast, pizza, lunch, and dinner throughout the day in the heart of the town.
