About Neks

Neks, on Rimska cesta near Congress Square and the Roman wall, takes its name from “nexus”, a meeting point, and aims to be a place where generations meet. It pours wines and sparkling wines from Štanjel in the Karst, and has an unusual ritual: you can write a letter to yourself or someone else, seal it, and the café will post it two years later. Our advice: an easy-going spot for an aperitivo.

Why it's on our list

  • A calm, friendly café-bar
  • Karst wines from Štanjel
  • Letters you can write and send in two years

Opening hours, prices and seasonal openings change, so please check with Neks before you go.
