About Slaščičarna pri Vodnjaku

Pri Vodnjaku, “by the fountain”, stands where Stari trg opens into Levstikov trg. It has a big choice of cakes and some unusual ones, such as its iced apple strudel, many flavours of ice cream and hot chocolate, plus raw cakes, fruit salads and snacks, with vegan, lactose-free and gluten-free choices. Our advice: an ice cream here is a fine reward after the walk down from the castle.

Why it's on our list

  • Ice creams in many flavours
  • Hot chocolate in winter
  • Vegan and gluten-free treats

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