Nothing vegan

Went to 2 of their stores and no vegan options at all. In one of the stores staff had no clue if anything was vegan and in the other staff said they only have vegetarian stuff not vegan.

Hit & Miss with vegan options

We checked out 3 different Mlinar bakeries in Zadar (2 in Old Town & one small one across the main bridge to New Town) & most of the time they didn’t have any plant-based options - even early in the morning.

I got a sausage roll from the biggest one in the centre of Old Town which I really liked. Was like a hot dog sausage in pastry & had a really nice mild mustard type sauce (forgot to take a photo, sorry!) My friends got a raspberry croissant which they said was nice.

I wouldn’t rely on them for getting lunch but if you’re passing it’s worth popping in & seeing if they have anything.

Pros: Lovely sausage rolls & croissants

Cons: Often don’t have or run out of PB options

clearly labelled and so tasty!

had the vegan burek and the sausage dog - more than once 😉
also, mlinar is a chain that can be found across croatia and bosia as well. so we hopped there whenever we needed a snack during our roadtrip ☺️☺️☺️

Vegan borek and Hot Dog

A really nice option when exploring the old part of town and you need some snacks. We had the Hot Dog and borek. Both tasted delicious.

New vegan options : raspberry crossant and salami sandwich!

Super cool to see new vegan options in a national bakery chain.

As of 1st September 2023 they offer a vegan croissant, a plant-based salami sandwich, a burek filled with minced and a kind of hotdog.

Pros: Many vegan options, Cheap

Great vegan options

They have clearly labeled vegan options such as borek, vegan sausage pastry and a vegan sandwich. Everything is super delicious and prices are very fair. Highly recommended!

Amazing Burek!

Burek made of filo pastry with meaty filling was amazing! The best food we tried in Zagreb. Vegan Hrenovka (hot dog) was OK but it was nothing special. Unfortunately we did not try the third option which was vegan sandwich. Overall very good experience. You won’t find plant based options in each store.

Pros: Excellent burek, Many stores all over the city, Very nice service

Cons: Plant based options not available in each store

New plant based options!

In cooperation with the Croatian brand Planet of Plants, they've just released a new range of plant based products. I tried the PB burek (my favourite) and the PB hot dog (good but a bit too realistic for me!). I'll return later to try the PB sandwich and update this review. My son is vegetarian and really enjoyed the cheese filo pastry 'burek' (similar to Bulgarian banitza).

Edit: had the PB sandwich, very good!

Difficult to spot plant-based options

Sells a few pastries that are entirely plant-based (some may contain "traces of..."), but making out what's vegan in the first place isn't very intuitive. Your best bet might be checking their website using a translator app.

The staff isnt trained and says there are no vegan options

The staff of two locations of this chain said that they dont have vegan options
I even explained what vegan means (no butter, milk…)
But they kept saying they didnt have options

The website states that some things dont contain allergens such milk, butter, eggs so we could assume those were vegans but the list of ingredients is not available so i didnt want to risk buying something not vegan
