Kids time
So you’re visiting with your children –
welcome! Many places will already have
something prepared for them (crayons,
blackboards etc), but here’s a few places
that will let your youngsters enjoy even
more while you nibble & sip.
Wine
Long for its wines Slovenia has been
known and we serve them in pretty
much every single bar, restaurant and
cafe. But some establishments delve
into the subject more and bring you
more flavors that go beyond malvazija,
refošk, haložan, janževec and cabernet
sauvignon. There are three wine growing
regions in Slovenia as well as the
oldest vine in the world so they deserve
to be tested out more in-depth. Along
with some nice snacks. Check out Šuklje,
Movia, Dvorni bar.
Specialty drink shops
If you hadn’t made the mistake by
coming to Slovenia only with your hand
luggage, or have the advantage of travelling
by train, bus or car, you won’t regret
visiting these venues that offer a
great selection of fine Slovenian wines,
craftbeer, liqueurs, spirits and, yes, also
whiskey. Check out Single bled (whiskey),
Že v redu, Primož (craftbeer),
Pivoljub (craftbeer), Za popen’t (craftbeer),
Dvorni bar (wine), Dekanter
(wine), Balthazar (wine), Štorija (wine),
E-vino (wine).
Go beyond downtown
Ljubljana is much more than just the
city centre district, so why limit yourself
only to those (albeit fabulous) couple of
blocks? Do not be afraid to venture out,
maybe sit on a random bus number (like
one of our interviewees suggests) and
exit a couple of stations of you city centre
comfort zone. We’ve picked some
noteworthy spots also outside of the pedestrian
zone that really, really show you
how and locals dine and enjoy a cuppa.
