Why go
Konoba Bare is worth considering for an easy, casual meal in Funtana when convenience matters more than a documented tasting-menu or chef-led format. The main caution is certainty: price, cuisine style, booking method, and dietary process are not confirmed, so special-occasion planners should compare it with More in Funtana or Spinnaker for a clearer Mediterranean €€€ profile.
About Konoba Bare
Konoba Bare is a Funtana venue with a casual dress code and a direct weekly schedule. It is open 12–11 PM on Monday, Tuesday, Thursday, Friday, Saturday, and Sunday, and it is closed on Wednesday. Specific claims about menu format, cuisine, pricing, awards, or dietary handling are not specified, so it is best approached with simple expectations.
Choose it for an easy Funtana meal, not a tasting-menu night
The right expectation is important here. Expect no tasting menu, chef name, cuisine label, award history, or price tier, so treat Konoba Bare as a convenience-led Funtana choice rather than a meal to organize a trip around. That is not a negative if the decision is about ease: the venue's schedule gives it usable coverage on most days of the week, and the Wednesday closure is the timing detail to plan around.
For an explorer comparing options, keep the shortlist realistic. More is another option to check, while Orlandin, Petra, Restaurant La Rosa, and Spinnaker can also be considered as comparison points.
Where it fits in a Funtana itinerary
Konoba Bare works when flexibility is worth more than advance certainty. It is a better match for a casual Funtana plan than for a milestone meal where the host needs advance information on menu format, price level, or dietary handling. For timing, plan around the 12–11 PM opening window on all listed operating days and remember that Wednesday is closed.

The take
The Take
The Vibe
Konoba Bare sits in the modest heart of Funtana, its stone walls and short menu anchoring it to a working coastal tradition. The konoba format (simple rooms, shared tables and a focus on what local boats and fields produce) gives the place an unpretentious, village charm. It feels like a meal shared among neighbors rather than a staged dining event: the building’s materiality and the direct sourcing logic keep attention on honest cooking and seasonally available seafood. The tone is authentic and relaxed, a counterpoint to the region’s more formal tasting-menu addresses.
Best For
This is a straightforward pick for families, groups and anyone after an informal coastal meal. Located in the residential fabric rather than on a busy promenade, Konoba Bare draws local and regional diners who value freshness and tradition over theatrics. It’s particularly well suited to evening meals centered on the day’s catch: the kind of place where shared plates and conversation are the point. If you’re traveling with a group or want a casual, communal dinner that reads of place, this is exactly the konoba model in practice.
Ordering Tips
Lean into the menu’s strengths and the konoba’s short, locally anchored approach: order grilled seafood and the mussels in white wine to sample the day’s catch, and try the truffle pasta for a land-and-sea contrast. Plates are shareable, so plan to pass around grilled dishes and shellfish. Finish with the signature chocolate ball dessert. Fish served in the evening may have been caught that morning, so let the seafood options guide your choices.

Restaurant context
How Konoba Bare compares in and around Funtana
Konoba Bare is the low-friction choice when the priority is staying in Funtana and keeping the meal casual. More is the cleanest direct cross-shop for the same town; compare those two first if location matters more than a defined price tier or cuisine label.
Spinnaker is the clearer fit for diners who want a Mediterranean Cuisine signal and a €€€ expectation before committing. That makes it easier to justify for a planned dinner, while Konoba Bare is better for a flexible meal where the decision is driven by convenience and availability.
Orlandin, Restaurant La Rosa, and Petra are better treated as fallback checks when Funtana options do not line up. Without stronger price or format signals, Konoba Bare remains the simpler pick for ease; choose Spinnaker when a more defined experience matters.
