Best Business Lunch & Dinner


Business is booming here in Slovenia, and once you’ve got past the red-tape involved in opening a business (especially for foreigners), you’ll want to wow your potential new clients with some excellent business lunches. There’s no end to great choices in the city centre, all easily reached on foot if that’s where you’re located, but we’d also highly recommend checking out some of the options on the outskirts of town, where you can jump off the ring road and parking is a breeze, leaving you on time, relaxed and ready to talk business. Whichever of our nominees for the Best Business Lunch Restaurant category you choose, you’ll receive a warm welcome and enjoy comfortable surroundings that will definitely create a good impression.

eVino Wine Bar

Founded as a web-only venture back in 2005, eVino has since become one of the largest wine distributors in Slovenia, and now has its own wine bar where customers can sample the goods in a proper atmosphere before buying. In addition to the vast selection of wine - currently from nearly 100 producers representing over a dozen countries - they also offer a limited selection of premium spirits, some gourmet oils and vinegars, cigars and Antica coffee - a boutique brand widely considered to be one of the best in the world.

Cubo 

Although Restavracija Cubo is found some 10 minutes from the city centre, this doesn't stop foreigners and locals who appreciate good food and atmosphere from turning up there in droves. Taking the very best of the dining experience from décor to service to of course the food, they’ve come up with a truly inspiring place indeed. Opting for a minimalist approach with lots of dark woods and cool greys, the setting attracts everyone from business professionals to families who come to feast on a regularly changing menu of dishes including many inspired from Italy and the Mediterranean.
