  • 1. 1906

    $$$

    Meticulously prepared meals, perfectly paired wine, and homemade ice cream are all offered at a premium price for these parts, although the setting and experience makes that great value for your money. The head chef specializes in reviving traditional dishes with modern flair but will adapt any dishes to any customer’s request. Elegant yet not intimidating, 1906 facilitates romantic moments as well as family outings. The hotel also offers wine tastings in their private cellar, organized cooking classes, and theme evenings. The impressive view, knowledgeable staff, and on-site sommelier make this dining experience special.

    Kolodvorska Cesta 33, Bled, N/A Slovenia, 4260, Slovenia
    04-575–2610

    Known For

    • Elegant yet down-to-earth atmosphere
    • Impressive views
    • Organized events like cooking classes
  • 2. Čokl

    $

    Ljubljana's caffeine-mecca, Čokl is a postage stamp-sized café that serves up the best coffee in the city, at least according to those in the know. The terrace is a lovely spot to spend an afternoon, especially taking into account how small the interior is. Quality over quantity is the name of the game here.

    Krekov trg 8, Ljubljana, N/A Slovenia, 1000, Slovenia
    041-837–556

    Known For

    • Impressive coffee expertise
    • Teeny-tiny interior
    • Ljubljana's best espresso
  • 3. Druga Violina

    $

    The gorgeous Stari trg location and a hearty menu filled with Slovenian classics would be enough to justify a cheerful lunch at Druga Violina, but there is more to this spot than initially meets the eye. The restaurant doubles up as an initiative to help people with disabilities in the region, a talented group of people who help grow the ingredients on a nearby farm and work as the wait staff in the restaurant itself. The food is good enough to recommend alone, but the entire concept is to be celebrated.

    Stari trg 21, Ljubljana, N/A Slovenia, 1000, Slovenia
    82-052–506

    Known For

    • Fresh, locally grown produce

  • 4. Kava Bar Tam Tam

    $

    A hugely personable café, Tam Tam is focused on flavor while refusing to skimp on extras, serving snacks along with its coffees, beers, and wines. It has a tranquil, authentic atmosphere that comes from an inherent serenity and a seriously good selection of beverages.

    040-566–044

    Known For

    • Great food selection
    • Modernist vibes
    • Serene parkside setting
  • 5. Slaščičarna Kala

    $

    Tucked away near the bus station, this little patisserie is easy to miss, yet worth every effort to find. Specializing in homemade ice cream and desserts from the Prekmurje region, this charming café will tempt you and keep you coming back for more. Try the prekmurska gibanica, which is a harmonious medley of upmarket bread, and the cream pudding for pure bliss. They also know how to make a mean cup of joe.

    Koroška ulica 13B, Kranjska Gora, N/A Slovenia, 4280, Slovenia
    04-588–5544

  • 9. Cafe Belvedere

    $

    Once a waiting hall for those hoping for an audience with the king (and designed by Plečnik no less), Cafe Belvedere is now a gorgeous café offering the most exquisite views of Bled Island. The prices reflect that (expect to pay upwards of €2.60 for an espresso), but finding a better view of the beauty below is downright impossible. The history of the building itself is interesting, with plenty of nods to Tito all around. The café is located deep within the grounds of Vila Bled.

    Cesta svobode 18, Bled, N/A Slovenia, 4260, Slovenia
    04-575–3721

    Known For

    Rate Includes: Closed Oct.–Apr.
  • 10. Cafetino

    $

    A longtime favorite with coffee lovers across Ljubljana, Cafetino is a friendly place to stop for that all important first cup of the day. The interior is tiny and getting a seat can be difficult, so it's best to stroll up early and start the day in the right way. Beans can also be bought to take home.

    Stari trg 5, Ljubljana, N/A Slovenia, 1000, Slovenia
    04-222–950

    Known For

    • Picturesque location
    • Conversation-filled setting
    • Wide range of coffee beans
  • 11. Caffe Neptun

    $

    Not to be confused with the restaurant of the same name, Caffe Neptun is a delightful little café located directly next to the bus station. It's a friendly spot that focuses as much on sustainability and ethics as it does on good coffee and a warm atmosphere. The coffee is the best on the coast, giving some of the more lauded cafés in Ljubljana a run for their money too.

    Dantejeva ulica 4, Piran, N/A Slovenia, 6330, Slovenia
    05-901–5633

    Known For

    • Best coffee on the coast
    • Gorgeous sea views

  • 13. Dežela Okusov

    $$

    All meat everything reigns supreme at this charming and cuts-fueled bistro on Eipprova. This is pub grub at an impeccably high standard: stacks of grilled and smoked meats mesh perfectly with any of Slovenia's impressive roster of craft beers. Throw in a homely interior and a sun-drenched terrace and Dežela Okusov is always a great option.

    Eipprova 11, Ljubljana, N/A Slovenia, 1000, Slovenia
    01-283–9288

    Known For

    • Sumptuous smoked meat dishes
    • House-roasted coffee
    • Lovely terrace
  • 14. Gostilna Danica

    $$

    Don’t be deceived by this restaurant’s casual appearance at the Danica campsite: it tries much harder to add variety to the average Slovenian fare than most. Economically priced while still delivering a full plate, a good portion of the menu changes seasonally. In keeping with Slovenian tradition, soup is offered year-round, and the garlic soup is a standout. Be sure to sample the full regional wine menu as well.

    Triglavska cesta 60, Bohinjska Bistrica, N/A Slovenia, 4264, Slovenia
    04-575–1610

    Known For

    • Distinctively better than most campsite restaurants
    • Full regional wine menu
  • 15. Gostilna Lectar

    $$$

    This warm country-style inn serves an impressive selection of traditional dishes. For a cross section of the local cuisine, try the pumpkin soup, the Peasant's Plate (buckwheat dumplings, mixed smoked meats, potatoes, and fresh steamed vegetables), and the apple strudel.

    04-537–4800

  • 16. Gostilna Muha

    $$

    A friendly, family-run tavern in the village of Lokev is about 4 km (2 miles) from the Lipica stud farm. This is a great place to try traditional dishes and wine from the Karst region; a good starter is jota (bean and sauerkraut soup) followed by slow-roasted pork and a green salad topped with a spoonful of beans.

    Lokev 138, Lokev, N/A Slovenia, Slovenia
    05-767–0055

  • 18. Gostilna pri Planincu

    $$

    With large portions at modest prices, this friendly spot is busy year-round. Rowdy farmers take advantage of the cheap beer at front bar and everyone loves the menu "for people who work all day": roast chicken and fries, steak and mushrooms, black pudding, and turnips. For dessert, walnut štrukli (dumplings) are served with cream.

    Grajska 8, Bled, N/A Slovenia, Slovenia

  • 19. Gostilna Prunk

    $$

    Cavernous dining rooms and excellently prepared beef dishes provide authentic ambience at Gostilna Prunk, a delightful surprise in the backwoods of Slovenia. The menu is simple and meat-centric (the family-owned butcher shop is attached) but enhanced by fresh ingredients and well-chosen spices. The homemade dessert plum cake pairs well with the homemade šlivovitz (a plum-based hard brandy). Service is friendly and prices are economical.

    Lokev 166 b, Lokev, N/A Slovenia, Slovenia
    05-767–1102

    Known For
