Ljubljana

Lovers of fresh, organic and healthy food, this bistro veggie is for you! All products come from local markets and farms. In a beautiful bright room with a high ceiling, located just next to the Academy of Fine Arts, people come to enjoy pies, sandwiches, soups, cakes and smoothies. Every day, 3 different dishes are served at lunchtime. The atmosphere is both relaxed and refined. If you prefer a sweet break, opt for its little sister Bazilika Café, also in the city centre.

Located in the old town, this restaurant offers specialties exclusively from the Prekmurije region, with the distinctive feature of being entirely vegan. The emphasis here is on dishes that are eaten with a spoon, just like in the old days. The Bograč revisit is a must, served in its traditional copper bucket. Save room for dessert, as Prekmurije's famous cake, gibanica, is on the menu. You can also take it to go and finish on a lighter note with a delicious pumpkin seed oil ice cream!

It's the place to be for breakfast lovers and brunch addicts alike. Eggs in all shapes and sizes: scrambled, Florentine, Benedict, soft-boiled... But also brioches, croissants, bowls of granola, avocado toast, salmon toast, crêpes... Complete the menu with freshly squeezed juices or hot drinks. The entire menu is dedicated to the most important meal of the day! We recommend the Ek Plate for €16.90, which offers a sweet and savory mix for those who can't bring themselves to choose.

At Barbarella, we promote a cuisine focused on health, beauty and well-being, using high-quality plant-based ingredients. You will find nutritious vegan dishes or even gluten-free dishes. Every day there is an offer of sandwiches, savory pies, creative and colorful soups, buddha bowls and healthy desserts. You can complete your meal with a cold-pressed juice or a smoothie, all in environmentally responsible packaging. Here we are offered a philosophy of life far from sugar and industrial food products.

Due to its location, in the famous Archers' Tower of the no less famous Ljubljana Castle, this restaurant is already a must-see. Add to this a splendid view of the city below from the panoramic terrace, a perfect mastery of the balance of the dishes concocted by the promising chef Igor Jagodic - including a technical and imaginative cuisine with appetizers and sweets -, a wine list well adapted to the size of the place, and you simply have one of the best restaurants in the country.

Just a stone's throw from the Opera House, this intimate, cosy restaurant boasts a summer terrace. The menu features refined seafood dishes such as scallops on a bed of spicy carrot, fish ceviche, Wellington salmon or poached sea bass with beurre blanc sauce. Prices are extremely affordable, with attentive service and a fine wine list by the glass. A few nuggets are aimed at carnivores, such as the excellent beef tartare and the low-temperature beef cheek. The perfect address for escaping the tourist traps!

Tavarneta specializes in two things: the world of wine and seafood. If you're a fan of both, this is the place for you! The menu is tiny, with an assortment of hot and cold starters and three to four main courses. You'll find oysters, scallops, langoustine, lobster, various fish tartars... Products of exceptional quality and freshness, echoing the very thorough selection of wines, including a few local references.

Probably the best vegan address in the capital. This little bistro, tucked away in a central alleyway, offers lunchtime formulas at unbeatable prices. The menu changes daily and can be consulted online. Portions are delicate and elegantly presented. The freshness of the ingredients and the diversity of flavors are not limited by the absence of meat or fish. Even non-vegans will be surprised by the creativity of the dishes, and the result is a new craze for this type of cuisine!
