The best restaurants Batoumi

In the heart of the city, here is a perfect place to enjoy bakhlava, the honey and walnut/nut cakes inherited from the Turks. In Adjaria, they are the best in Georgia (as luck would have it), and here is a nice place to enjoy them with a coffee or tea. All kinds of people come here, locals and tourists alike, gourmands who want to satisfy their taste buds that demand sweetness. The atmosphere is very friendly, the service is successful. There are also other pastries and fresh drinks that you will not deprive yourself of tasting.

Prominent with its round structure and windows, the first building visible when you arrive on the quay at Portis Chésakhévi, the Samkinto is one of Batoumi's flagship restaurants. It is a House of Khinkali type establishment, which serves the full range of Georgian dishes. But the priceless advantage of this round building is that you have lunch facing the Black Sea... And that the house serves good fish. Try the typical Black Sea Kefali. The khatchapouri adjare is also famous there. Not too expensive and superb panorama. Good service.

Here is a very good specialist of Russian and Ukrainian cuisine, to remind us of the time, not so ancient, when Batumi was a cosmopolitan city of the great Russian-Soviet empire. They serve excellent pelmenis, a kind of Russian-style ravioli (but they have their own particularity and only tasting them will allow you to see it). Don't hesitate to try other specialties that you want to try, or let yourself be surprised by an unknown name. The service is successful, adapting to the crowds, the atmosphere is warm. Diving into the "empire" is undeniable.

On the avenue of the new seaside resort, the Adjarouli Sakhli is a huge restaurant, modern and folklore at the same time, specializing in Adjar cuisine. It is a good synthesis of the new Batoumi, which is modern and traditional at the same time. Many rooms, superb sea views (it is directly on the beach); 2 km from the center. The cuisine is succulent and the specialities numerous. Everyone will find his or her favourite dish, not forgetting the varied wine list, which we will be able to advise you on. Successful service.

Directly on the seafront, this restaurant opened less than five years ago and specialises in fish - something that had been missing in the port city until then. Inside, there is room for folklore and design decoration. The dishes are a little expensive, but the excellent service, the very good fish accompanied by the best Georgian wines are a definite justification. Warm atmosphere, diverse population. A good meal in perspective.

This restaurant in the seaside pavilion right on the old port, with its idyllic terrace in summer is a highlight of Batoumi! Typically, people come here to enjoy a khatchapouri adjare while watching the sea and the port, drinking a beer or coffee. There is space directly on the quay, on the upper terrace, inside ... This is the café-restaurant of the Batoumian tout-venant! Good food, thirst-quenching or comforting drinks, quality service, a varied and rhythmic atmosphere. In short, a good place.

If you're looking for the specialist of khatchapouri adjarouli, this bun filled with cheese, this is the place to come! The Saradjakhama is an authentic address, more for natives than for tourists, but still one of the most famous in the city for its speciality. So it's a good place to meet the locals, and exchange (if there's no language barrier) on the mutual love for the khatchapouri of the place that you will feel from the first bite. Friendly atmosphere and smiling staff.

The "Old Boat" in French. However here is a brand new boat put ashore a few years ago which is on the edge of the "Boulevard" (right side when you go towards the beach). Here is a rather kitschy idea but full of charm in the end. The interior is surprising, with good quality Georgian food and well prepared fish. A rather original experience that has found its success, more among tourists than locals. Good drinks as well. Attentive and available service. Warm atmosphere.

The Tea House is a rather prestigious tea room in Batoumi. Its standing is equal to the delicious hot drinks it serves; it is indeed the best place to taste adjare tea, or a tasty Turkish coffee - the one in Batumi is the best in all of Georgia. The Tea House offers excellent Uzbek plovs (rice dishes) for your meals. The place is very popular because it is almost an institution here. You will quickly understand why, both for its service and for the atmosphere that emerges from it.

Here is a new and pleasant café in town where you can come at any time of the day to drink a coffee or a beer, all accompanied by sweet or salty sweets. Possibility to taste khatchapouris or quick snacks such as sandwiches like croque-monsieur, but also small pizzas, plates of skewers, trays of chips. Interesting cocktail menu (with or without alcohol). Good local and tourist atmosphere at the same time. Attentive and smiling service. A café where it is good to settle down and enjoy the moment.

Here is a rather unusual place by its name, but whose concept is that of a literary café as we can imagine. Here you can find a typical Georgian "litératourouli" café, pleasant to have a drink and enjoy cakes in the central street of the old town. Not forgetting the books available (most of them in Georgian or English). At the same time modern, intimate, and in the heart of the Batoumian outings, one spends a pleasant moment there.

Café where you can eat simply next to the beach; the place is a curiosity, with mosaics and open air; it was designed by the sculptor Zourab Tsérétéli. The menu is basic, but people come to eat here mainly because the Octopus Cafe is superbly located. In the end, a beer and a khatchapouri adjarouli (this cheesy bread that can only be melted) should be enough. Warm and friendly atmosphere, varied population. Dynamic and smiling service. In short, a beautiful place to relax and enjoy the scenery.
