About us

Where Family and the Sea Share the Same Table

Hidden in the heart of Funtana, Istria, away from crowds and everyday rush, Konoba More is a traditional family-run konoba where a love for cooking and genuine hospitality has been passed down through generations. Deeply rooted in Istrian heritage, the konoba preserves tradition not only through authentic recipes, but through a sincere, personal approach to every guest.

Hospitality is lived daily, shaped by warmth, honesty, and pride in what is created by hand, with patience, care, and respect for tradition.

Location

Set in the calm of Funtana - Istria, where time moves more slowly

Nestled in a tranquil corner of Funtana, Konoba More is a refined retreat defined by the unhurried cadence of coastal living.

Close enough to the coast to feel the Mediterranean spirit, yet far from the noise, the location invites guests to pause, disconnect, and settle into a more intimate, local side of Istria. This is a place where days unfold naturally, guided by seasons, soft light, and unhurried moments shared around the table.

Ambiance

Mediterranean moments in a warm, inviting space

The ambiance of Konoba More reflects the Mediterranean in its most genuine form — simple, warm, and connected to nature. Wood, stone, and soft tones create a space that feels both familiar and refined, where comfort comes naturally. The atmosphere is calm and welcoming, enhanced by thoughtful service that is present without being intrusive, allowing guests to feel relaxed, cared for, and at ease.

Experiences

From local ingredients to lasting memories

The cuisine of Konoba More is guided by local, seasonal ingredients and time-honoured family recipes, reimagined with a modern, thoughtful touch. Each dish respects natural flavors and balance, allowing simplicity to shine. The menu evolves with the seasons, changing four times a year in harmony with nature and the availability of trusted local produce.

Summer brings lighter Mediterranean and seafood dishes, while the colder months offer deeper, richer flavors of truffles, homemade pasta, and slow-prepared meat specialties. Paired with a carefully selected wine list from local Istrian winemakers, dining at Konoba More becomes more than a meal – it is a quiet, lasting experience shaped by tradition, family, and a sense of place.

A place to return to

Konoba More is not about spectacle or trends – it is about feeling welcome, eating well, and taking the time to enjoy both. Whether you arrive for a quiet dinner, a shared family moment, or a celebration of simple pleasures, you are invited to slow down and become part of the story.
