Kavarna Zvezda

A city-centre pastry shop and café known for its cakes, on the corner by Kongresni trg.

About

Zvezda is one of Ljubljana’s established café-pâtisseries, and the place locals name first for cake in the centre. The counter carries a wide range of gateaux and pastries alongside ice cream in summer, and there is a terrace facing Kongresni trg. It is an ordinary, everyday institution rather than a destination, which is exactly what makes it useful mid-afternoon.
