Food Tour in Korce
The food scene in Korce is best discovered on foot — start at Old Bazaar to taste what makes this city's culinary identity distinct. Tuck into lesser-known corners like Korce Brewery for the dishes visitors rarely find. From morning market runs to late-night street food, every neighborhood here has its own flavor.
Korce sits at 850 meters in a highland basin in southeastern Albania, near the Greek and North Macedonian borders. Known as the 'city of serenades' for its musical tradition, Korce has a restored Ottoman bazaar, Albania's first brewery (since 1928), and the country's first Albanian-language school. The nearby Prespa Lakes, shared with Greece and North Macedonia, are a UNESCO Biosphere Reserve.

Food Tour Perspective
While Korce is best known for culture and history, stops like Old Bazaar sit alongside bakeries and cafes tucked into side streets — and quieter spots like Korce Brewery where the real locals eat.
