When traveling through Croatia, I noticed a constant stream of delivery riders zipping around the city. Curious, I decided to try Wolt—a food delivery app that’s like Croatia’s version of Uber Eats. Originally from Finland, Wolt offers a seamless experience for locals and travelers alike.

How to Use Wolt

1. Download the App

The Wolt app is available on the App Store and supports English, although menu items are primarily in Croatian. Thankfully, the app has a built-in translation feature, making it super convenient for international users.

2. Explore the Options

Wolt delivers not just food from restaurants but also groceries, pharmacy items, liquor, and even pet food! It’s perfect for when you don’t want to venture out.

3. Placing an Order

I ordered from Submarine Burger, one of Zagreb’s most popular spots. The menu automatically translated Croatian to English, but for more detailed descriptions, I used Google Translate.

• Payment was easy—credit cards in EUR are accepted.
• You can pre-tip your delivery person or tip afterward like on Uber Eats.

4. Exclusive Discounts

First-time users can save €4 on their first two orders using a referral code. If you’re new to Wolt, here’s a code you can use: NH3E27P. I saved some cash, and you can too!

My Experience with Wolt in Zagreb

While staying at an Airbnb in Zagreb, I decided to try Wolt on a rainy evening. The process was smooth, but I did encounter a hiccup with the delivery. Since I missed notifications from WhatsApp (their primary communication channel for delivery issues), the rider struggled to locate me. Lesson learned: Always keep app notifications turned on!

Once the delivery arrived, everything was hot and fresh, even in the downpour.

What I Ordered

1. Submarine Burger

You can customize your burger, even swapping the bun for cabbage leaves—a unique and surprisingly tasty option!

2. Truffle Fries

Generous portions and absolutely delicious. Paired perfectly with a cold Radler beer.

Why I Recommend Wolt

• It’s a lifesaver for travelers who don’t want to navigate Croatian menus in person.
• Perfect for late nights or bad weather when you just want to relax indoors.
• Real-time tracking ensures you know exactly where your delivery is.

Pro Tip: If you’re using Wolt, make sure your location details are accurate, especially if you’re not staying in a hotel. It’ll save both you and your delivery person some trouble.

Final Verdict: Wolt made my Zagreb stay more enjoyable with its convenience and delicious options. If you’re traveling through Croatia, give it a try—it’s definitely worth it!
