Cogito Coffe

Cogito Coffee has multiple locations in Croatia, with two in Dubrovnik: one at the Ploče Gate and one in the Old Town. The branch outside of Ploče Gate also has a souvenir shop, Life According to KAWA, run by Jon and Sanja, Canadians with Croatian roots, Matušić says. “The shop not only showcases the very best of local crafts, but this is a place where you can buy hand-roasted coffee, or you can just relax drinking coffee in their Cogito Coffee shop,” she says. The other Cogito Coffee in Dubrovnik is in a less touristy area of the Old Town, Matušić notes. “With a few stools and benches to sit on, this is a great little spot to spend some quality time and drink and buy some coffee from places including Tanzania, Kenya and Rwanda.”
