6 Best Nightlife in Slovenia

Just about as down-to-earth as you could find on the coast, this homage to all things independent serves delicious coffees and teas by day and an excellent range of Slovenian craft beers by night. Cafés in Koper can lean on the uncreative side of things, but Cameral stands out from the pack.

With its hodgepodge of furniture and an undeniable artistic streak running through the walls, Daktari is a veritable Ljubljana institution. A wide range of patrons regularly enjoys the packed schedule of events here or simply an evening of drinks and discussion from early morning until late at night. You won't find a more eclectic crowd anywhere else in the city, in a more diverse environment. Daktari is Ljubljana at its best, with excellent cold beer and hot coffee.

With two fingers on the country's cultural pulse, Pritličje is ground zero for all things social in Ljubljana. The cooler-than-cool vibe is more than just aesthetics at this people-friendly bar with open doors and open minds. Located directly next to the Town Hall, Pritličje is a beacon of positivity all night long.

In addition to the comfortable and affordable accommodations it offers in the heart of Bovec, Thirsty River lives up to its name with some of the best beer in town. The staff is sociable, informative, and friendly, and the range of beers is fantastic. It's the perfect combination of a comfy bed and a refreshing pint.

Formerly an army barracks, Metelkova has been transformed into a multipurpose venue for shows and happenings. Today, it is the center of the Slovenian alternative culture scene, full of street art, unique galleries, and music of every genre in its various clubs. Check the website for schedules of openings and performances.

This spot is a magnet for younger crowds looking for quality craft beer and colorful cocktails in seriously stylish surroundings. Its location above iconic club K4 doesn’t hurt either.
