VENUES

and special as its animal counterpart:

finely tuned cocktails, made from old

school pharmacy recipes from the US

prohibition times, are prepared by a

barman and mixologist in a super retro-cum-postmodern

interior where

relaxed chat, secret whispers and sexy

encounters might ensue, as they promise.

Your best “prescribed” dose of high

quality alcohol without prescription.

Črno zrno

There’s at least another famous Colombian

export, and we’re more than

excited to have it dealt directly here in

Ljubljana. We’re talking of course about

coffee. Specifically, specialty coffee

brought to your daily brew by a Colombian,

married to a Slovenian, named

Alex. Another hole in a wall, beautifully

vintage interior and coziness where,

along with your sweet guilty pleasures’

treats, you’ll forget the rest of the

world. Pure decadence.

Imagine a living room you never had (at

least we didn’t) - red velvety couches,

piano in the corner, bookshelves
