Stenders

Latvia


Looking like the dwelling of a forest witch, this popular bar cum cafe, housed on the 2nd storey of an 18th-century warehouse, specialises in warm potato pancakes and cool pints of Užavas. Its wooden terrace is definitely the best place in town if you want to eat or drink outdoors on a warm day.
