Best restaurants in Batumi

By Mariam Lomidze, Culture & Events Reporter · 16/10/2026

Selected by the GTour desk from the national register of licensed places. Updated October 2026; reviewed yearly. No place pays to appear.

Batumi’s dining scene stretches along the Black Sea boulevard and spills into the grid of streets behind it, where Adjarian khachapuri — the boat-shaped bread filled with cheese and a cracked egg — shares menu space with grilled Black Sea fish, Georgian wine and a growing number of international kitchens. The city’s subtropical climate and port-town history have made it a place where old Ajarian family recipes sit alongside newer cafes aimed at the cruise-ship and conference crowd, and the result is a food scene with more variety than its size might suggest.

This list was put together by the GTour desk from the national tourism register of licensed places in Ajara. Selection was based on location (how easy a place is for a visitor to find and reach), established presence (an existing listing with contact details, often a working website), and what each venue offers a traveller — cuisine type, setting or a clear reason to visit. No business paid for inclusion and no ratings are claimed; entries are ordered as they appear in the register, not ranked by quality.

1. Edem Restaurant & Cafe

Edem Restaurant & Cafe sits on David Aghmashenebeli Avenue, one of Batumi’s central thoroughfares, making it an easy stop for visitors already walking the city. It is listed in the national tourism register and verified by GTour, with a website, map and contact details available for those planning ahead. The central address suits travellers who want a straightforward, centrally located option without detours.

2. Level Up Restaurant

Level Up Restaurant is located at 240 Rustaveli Street in Kobuleti, a coastal town close to Batumi along the Ajara shoreline, rather than in Batumi itself. The restaurant describes a menu spanning Georgian and European dishes, giving visitors a choice between local and more familiar fare. It suits travellers who are exploring the wider Ajara coast beyond Batumi’s centre, not just those staying downtown.

3. ONE Lari

ONE Lari is a confectionery-coffee shop at 79 Gorgosali Street, operating since 2023, and offers daily deli-style items for visitors looking for a quicker or lighter stop. Its focus on pastries, coffee and deli fare makes it suited to travellers wanting a casual break between sightseeing rather than a full sit-down meal. The shop has a website with further details for those wanting to check ahead.

4. Umami at Clouds

Umami at Clouds is a bar and restaurant at 1 Ninoshvili Street, set on the 19th floor of its building, which gives it panoramic views over Batumi. This height and outlook make it a natural choice for visitors wanting a scenic meal or drink rather than a street-level stop. It suits travellers prioritising atmosphere and a view alongside their food.

5. Family Cafe Ana-Teo

Family Cafe Ana-Teo is attached to a family winery in the village of Mukhaestate, at Street 4, Alley 3, House 5, and represents a multi-generational family business with roots going back some time. This is a destination outside central Batumi, suited to travellers interested in combining a meal with a visit to a working Georgian family winery. It is a fitting stop for those planning a day trip into the Ajara countryside rather than staying within the city itself.

6. Iveria Cafe Batumi

Iveria Cafe Batumi is located at Tengiz Abuladze N3 in Batumi and is listed in the national tourism register and verified by GTour, with map and contact information on file. Details on its specific offerings are limited in the register beyond its listing status and location. It suits visitors who want a verified, centrally registered option in Batumi and are comfortable checking further details via the map and contact links before visiting.

7. Maharajah Restaurant

Maharajah Restaurant is an Indian and Halal restaurant and kitchen at Sherif Khimshiashvili Street 16a in Batumi. It gives travellers a clear alternative to Georgian cuisine while in the city, and is relevant for visitors specifically seeking halal dining options. This makes it a useful entry for international travellers wanting familiar flavours or dietary assurance during a Batumi stay.

8. Restaurant Medea

Restaurant Medea is at 1 Egnate Ninoshvili in Batumi and describes itself as offering a Modern Georgian Menu that blends traditional flavours with a contemporary approach. It suits travellers who want Georgian cuisine presented in a more current style rather than a strictly traditional format. The central Batumi address makes it accessible for visitors based near the boulevard or old town.

How to use this list

Treat this register-based list as a starting point rather than a final verdict: check each restaurant’s own website or contact details for current hours, menus and any dietary options, since the facts here reflect what is recorded in the national tourism register at the time of listing rather than a review of food, service or price. Visitors moving beyond central Batumi should note that a couple of entries — in Kobuleti and in the village of Mukhaestate — involve a short trip outside the city, which may suit those with a car or a day planned along the Ajara coast or countryside.
