Offers high-quality European cuisine and artisan pizza cooked on a firewood stove (definitely recommended). No worries if you eat too much and don't feel like walking after the meal - the local tourist train "Ludis" can take you through the old town so you sit down and relax. It departs right next door from Goldingen Room.

A cozy patisserie-cafe with the most delicious cakes, buns and éclairs. Also offers various breakfast options - from porridges to pancakes and omelets. We usually end up buying their mini savory buns, éclairs, and the most delicious cinnamon buns with generous cream cheese frosting!

Dārziņš is a local classic and a hidden gem. Not much has changed since it first opened so it's the perfect place to have a taste (literally) of Kuldiga from decades ago. My personal favorite is their pastries with curd cheese (biezpiens).

Located right next to the old brick bridge with a spacious outdoor seating area to enjoy the view like no other. A great place to share a drink or two and listen to an occasional live set. You may also stumble upon a food truck while in Rezidence Kafe Venta. Worth noting that it also shares a building with the Artists' Residence of Kuldiga - a place for visual arts, creative industries, workshops, and exhibitions.
