    Kolibri, a hidden gem in Ljubljana, is a cocktail bar where the bartender's expertise, embodied by Ilija, is unparalleled. His exceptional mixology skills and passion for the art elevate every visit to this cocktail haven. The waitstaff, equally outstanding, ensures exemplary service, making the atmosphere enchanting. Their signature CMP cocktail, a three-day masterpiece, is worth every cent, while the Negroni stands out as the best ever. Kolibri offers an intimate and sophisticated ambiance, making each visit a memorable experience. Don't miss this mixology haven in the heart of Ljubljana, where both the bartender and waitstaff create a truly exceptional experience.

    The bartender was a little bit unpleasant and wasn't really helpful when choosing the cocktail. He recommended a cocktail that was 13 euros, and it was not worth it. The whole atmosphere in the bar was a bit awkward.

    Place with great cocktails and vibe, hidden from the main city arteries. It has a potential, and I'll be visiting it again if I ever get a chance. I'm giving 4 stars because there is room for improvement: * Usually at places that aspire to be quality cocktail bars you get served water at the very beginning. Here we didn't get one until we asked, and we had to specify the amount of glasses. * We tried ordering a "surprise me" sweet and sour cocktail, but nothing from the menu. The waitress stuttered for a bit and suggested a sour cocktail from the menu instead. Weird - usually bartenders have no problem with making up generic sweet and sour drinks on the spot in hundreds of combinations. * When one person asked for a non-alcoholic cocktail the waitress suggested a coca cola or lemonade xd Really? * No napkins or coasters under cocktails * Garnish game could be stepped up. It was very minimal, if present at all.

    When it comes to Ljubljana and the best cocktails, Kolibri is the place to be. Their interior, complete with a piano, is stunning, and the outdoor seating offers a view of Ljubljana Castle. I'm personally addicted to their Margarita. This place is a must-visit for cocktail enthusiasts!

    Great interior design. Very good and friendly service. Warm welcome. Great cocktails with the bartender’s twist. Toilets are also very stylish. Very cosy place to have a drink while listening to some classic and jazz music. You may also be lucky to hear the place manager playing the piano if you arrive very early 😉.

    Excellent little cocktail bar that has a bit of a speakeasy vibe, but at the same time open enough to invite regular people off street. A small, but excellent selection of in-house cocktails on the menu and all the classics available to order off-menu. Must visit if you're into cocktails or if you want a good treat. Lovely and helpful staff, as well.

    Very complicated menu. The two drinks I got recommended where an absolute disaster. The first one, a signature, was drastically overspiced. The second one, which should have been a variation of a classic, was honestly undrinkable.

    Me and my boyfriend went to kolibri on our last day of trip in Ljubljana. The bartender Kian, who was also our waiter took the time to explain us the menu and suggested us drinks based on our preferences, despite being alone in the bar. The cocktails he made for us were amazing and we had a great time and experience. Can’t wait to visit this place in our next trip to Slovenia.

    The best cocktail bar I've been to in ages. Selection of really well curated cocktails with unique ingredients that combine to make the most delicious drink. The staff here are so friendly and welcoming which really made our night! Special mention to Kian who was the font of all knowledge when it came to the ingredients in each cocktail - and for letting us sample drinks before committing to them. What he didn't know wasn't worth knowing! Such a relaxed, friendly and welcoming vibe in a unique, sophisticated setting - everything about this place is sheer quality. Not to be missed if you're in Ljubljana ❤️

    I had an amazing experience at this cocktail bar. The ambiance was fantastic, with dim lighting and cozy atmosphere. The cocktails were expertly crafted and delicious, with great variety to choose from. The staff was really friendly, providing excellent recommendations. It's a must-visit

    Nice bar experience. Anze is not only a very communicative and knowledgeable bartender but also a highly decorated one (in his cocktail creating discipline). Was a great evening and #HankyPanky was an interesting choice. See you next time

    Excellent cocktails, beautiful atmosphere, friendly personnel and there's also a piano where you can play. However, they don't serve some of the very famous cocktails.

  • 5/5 Tilen S. 1 year ago on Google
    The best coctails in town. The menu changes seasonally with classics always available on request. The space is pleasant, small, mystic and cozy. The bartender is very friendly with some impressive mixing skills and is always happy to explain more about the drinks he offers and they are made. Since the sitting is limited, maybe make a reservation.

    We dropped in and were lucky to get the place at the bar. The place is small and cosy, I would pick it especially during winter months. Go for their signature cocktails, I recommend trying them all (as we did, almost). Or, at least three rounds. More on the expensive side, but worth it. Don't miss them.

  • 5/5 Katrin W. 1 year ago on Google
    Amazing cocktails. We loved it, the bar is in a more silent street. The cocktails are more expensive than in more touristic places, but they are better. The staff is really nice!

  • 5/5 Amy S. 1 year ago on Google
    If you're looking for amazing cocktails in an off the beaten track part of Ljubljana, then here's the place! It's small so you might have to wait for a table but it's worth it. Each cocktail (I had a few) was perfection. Highly recommend!
