A Taste of the Mediterranean
Traditional Albanian cuisine in the heart of Korce. Four rooms of 19th-century charm, live serenata, and homemade baked raki.
Vila Cofiel is not just a restaurant -- it is a journey through Albanian culinary heritage. Nestled in the cultural capital of Korce, our four dining rooms are decorated in authentic 19th-century style, each telling its own story of Albanian tradition.
From the crackling fireplace on winter evenings to the sun-drenched terrace in summer, every visit feels like coming home. We serve authentic dishes prepared with recipes passed through generations, paired with wines from the renowned Korce region and our signature homemade baked raki.
Travelers from around the world share their Vila Cofiel experience.
