The Taste of Ljubljana Beneath Plečnik’s Arcades
Pause along the Ljubljanica River and discover a place where traditional local food meets timeless architecture.
Welcome to Plečnikova Južna
Beneath the majestic Plečnik Arcades, where Ljubljana’s history meets the lively rhythm of the Central Market, we welcome you with open doors and a warm smile.
Our tavern is a tribute to Slovenian tradition – to simple, honest local food that carries the scent of memories and brings people together around the table.

Each dish is prepared with seasonal ingredients from local farmers.
On your plate, you’ll find flavors that feel familiar – genuine, warm, and full of character.
Architect Jože Plečnik designed the arcades as a place for people to meet.
We bring them to life again – with good food, friendly hospitality, and a welcoming atmosphere.
For slower moments, visit our Plečnikova Južna Café – for coffee, sweet treats, and a peaceful view of the river.
Under the arcades, homeliness and architectural elegance meet.
Come and experience Ljubljana as we feel it.
