Can I visit without booking dinner?

There's Only One Michelin Restaurant in Hvar (and It's Not in Hvar Town)
My biggest Hvar mistake? Booking dinner at "Michelin" in Hvar town last July. I waited 45 minutes for a taxi to a non-existent restaurant. There’s only one Michelin-starred spot in Hvar’s region: Restaurant 360° on Stari Grad island. It’s a 30-minute ferry ride from Hvar town, not in the main town itself. Michelin Guide 2024 lists it as the sole star in Hvar County. You’ll pay €150-€220 per person for their 5-course tasting menu, including local Adriatic fish caught that morning.
