Best Cheap Eateries Under €8 Per Meal

On my second trip to Knin, I discovered a hidden gem: a family-run spot behind the old town where I ate grilled trout with wild herbs for €4.20. The owner, Marija, served it with bread from her own oven and a side of pickled peppers—exactly what I’d paid €12 for at touristy places near the castle. That’s the real Knin: cheap, honest food, no frills.
