Gostilna Pozar

Reviewed By robbo79342 - Sydney, Australia

We visited on a very cold day and, after the caves tour, were pleased to sit in the warmth being served by friendly staff. We went for the basics—cevapcici and a plate of other mixed meats and potato variations following on from a shared starter plate of cold meats, some salad and cheese. We also had the Union beer from the tap. Coffee to follow.
We were not looking for a gourmet experience, but for tasty, basic food. That was what we had.

Cuk Gostilna Pizzeria

Reviewed By Joky80 - Gothenburg, Sweden

We ended up here while searching for something to eat after visiting the Postojna Caves. Seems to the restaurant of a tennis club so the location isn’t the best. The service was OK but a bit slow occasionally. Food was good, we tried some different dishes like pizzas, goulash, pasta etc. and everything tasted well. Prices were on an OK level, most of the dishes cost around 9 EUR each. Another positive thing was that they had a Terrace allowing you to eat outside and a playground just outside where the children could play while waiting for the food.

We almost walked out. We were the only customers when we walked in. We waited and finally seated ourselves. We made noise but no one came till we were getting up to leave. Despite the bad start we had a great dinner and the service was pretty good. It was pricey but we were both quite happy with our meals.

Storja Pod Stopnicami

Reviewed By Jennifer6666 - Hong Kong, China

I've been generally pleased with TripAdvisor recommendations but this time it has led me completely astray. Came on January 1 after visiting the caves and the restaurant was understandably packed. Had to wait one hour (with no apologies whatsoever from the staff) for our gnocchi dishes, which were salty and only lukewarm. The portions were so small that even a 5-year old would leave hungry (look at TripAdvisor pictures for an idea of portion size). The IPA however was super.
Maybe it was an off-day for the chef/staff as they were obviously understaffed on that day. However based on my experience the food and service were average at best and way over-priced.

Nice simple restaurant for a snack or hot meal. Close to the Postojna caves so great for a hot drink before or after your tour too.
