Happy

Happy, Bulgaria’s most beloved chain restaurant, stands out from typical chains. Established in 1994, it offers a cosy ambiance and employs a large staff, ensuring attentive service for every guest. The menu is impressively diverse, featuring everything from burgers, grilled meats, and pizza to fish dishes and even sushi. Their drink menu is equally diverse, with options ranging from alcoholic beverages to refreshing non-alcoholic choices like lemonade pitchers. Card payments and reliable Wi-Fi are also available. Happy has multiple locations in Varna. If you’re in the city centre, the branch located in front of the Cherno More hotel is the most convenient option.

Morska Terasa

If you’re seeking a fine dining experience with stunning views of the Black Sea, Morska Terasa is the perfect choice. This beachfront restaurant offers a delightful menu featuring seafood specialties like seafood pasta, grilled squid, and mussels, as well as salads and vegetarian options. Given its popularity, especially during the peak summer months of July and August, it’s highly recommended to book a table in advance to secure your spot.

SeaCrets

Unlike its neighbour Morska Terasa, SeaCrets offers a more relaxed and laid-back vibe right on the beach. Here, you can choose to dine at a traditional table or lounge on a pouf chair in the sand while enjoying your meal and sipping on one of their cocktails. The menu is diverse, featuring pasta, pizza, seafood, salads, hamburgers, and more. SeaCrets provides reliable Wi-Fi with a strong signal, even if you’re sitting close to the water.

Chuchura Restaurant

Located just a few blocks from the Varna Cathedral, Chuchura Restaurant specialises in authentic Bulgarian cuisine. Designed to resemble a traditional Bulgarian cottage, its cosy and rustic decor creates a warm and inviting atmosphere. The restaurant is perfect for introducing yourself to the rich flavours of local dishes, such as the famous Bulgarian tripe soup, stuffed peppers, and shish kebab. Complement your meal with a glass of Bulgarian wine.

Dolce Amaro Seaport

Dolce Amaro Seaport is a spacious and stylish restaurant located within the Varna Seaport, offering a memorable dining experience. The upper floor, in particular, stands out for its pleasant atmosphere, stunning views, and delicious food. The menu is diverse, featuring a brunch selection, Asian-inspired dishes, soups, salads and homemade desserts. Dolce Amoro Seaport has a second location in Varna, nestled in the scenic Sea Garden.

The BRICK

The BRICK is a versatile spot in Varna, transforming from a relaxed restaurant by day to a vibrant bar by night. During the day, their menu offers simple yet delicious options, including salads, omelets, cheese boards, sandwiches, pasta dishes, burgers, and burritos. With reliable Wi-Fi, it’s also a great place to work or study if needed. As evening falls, the atmosphere shifts, and the party begins with live performances, creative cocktails, and a lively crowd of mostly locals who know how to have a good time.

El Kapan

El Kapan leans hard into its Caribbean identity: samba music, cocktails served in elaborate glasses, and a kitchen that blends Asian and Caribbean influences into a menu built around seafood, skewers and bold flavours. The cocktail list is long and the lemonades are worth a mention too. Prices are reasonable for what you get, the staff are reliably friendly, and the absence of aggressive background noise means you can actually hear the sea. Booking ahead is advisable, particularly in summer.
