Restaurants & Cafés in Ljubljana

Restaurants & Cafés in LjubljanaRestaurants in Ljubljana Slovenia
Ljubljana’s restaurant scene continues to flourish with new and more exotic offerings opening all the time. A couple of our current favourites include the the semi-hidden Valmarin in the old town, and third generation family-run Brinje (where the horse steaks smothered in rocket and garlic are about as good as it gets). Although more often than not these days eating out often means burek for us.

Be sure to sample some local cuisine when in town, and do get yourself outside at least one legendary kremšnita cream cake, which can be found in abundance throughout the city (althoughBled is considered to the spiritual home of this sticky, gooey delight). 

Those not in town for its culinary excellence and who plan to do plenty of walking will be pleased to discover that almost every street has at least one burek and pizza place on it. Eating on the hoof in Ljubljana is a treat not to be missed. 

The following reviews are by no means complete, but do offer a bit of everything for everyone, from the finest white-tablecloth options available to the more amusingly backwards establishments complete with greasy cutlery and bumbling waiters.  

Assuming that visitors avoid the classic traps of restaurant dining and the outrageously overpriced places aimed at the tourist market, eating in Ljubljana, although not as cheap as it was, remains a pleasantly affordable experience for all.

Also be aware that during the summer many restaurants keep shorter hours or close entirely for several weeks at a time - in the latter cases we've tried to make a note of this but if you're heading somewhere a bit out of the way it's always a good idea to call first.
