Čajnica Primula — Restaurant in Upravna Enota Ljubljana

Čajnica Primula deluje v okviru Biotehniškega izobraževalnega centra (BIC) in jim služi tudi kot pomembna praktična 'učilnica', v kateri se kalijo bodoči natakarji ter gostinsko osebje. To vem, ker sem imela privilegij, da sem l. 2020 delala v BIC-u kot PR asistentka. Obenem je Primula za vsakodnevne ali 'padalske' obiskovalce Botaničnega vrta oziroma za sprehajalce izredno prijetna točka: čajnica/kavarnica/sladoledarna, kjer lahko jedo piškote, sladoled in tortice, ki so delo prizadevnih dijakov ter odraslih, vključenih v izobraževalne programe BIC-a, ki je do izobrazbe in delovnega mesta pomagal že na tisocem svojih dijakov/študentov. Ampak poglejmo nazaj v Primulo: njihov bogat izbor čajev, tudi zeliščnih, nas prepriča celo poleti v vročih dneh; v senci gostih krošenj dreves Botaničnega vrta uživamo v svežem sladoledu in drugih dobrotah, sladice in piškote lahko seveda kupimo tudi za domov. Priporočam čim pogostejši obisk Botaničnega vrta, kjer se duša sprosti in stres odplava med zelenje in cvetice. Po dvakratnem obhodu Botaničnega vrta pa se le nagradimo z limonado, tortico ali čim drugim v Čajnici Primula. Ne skrbite, da bi imeli samo čaj in brezalkoholne pijače: tudi PIVO ponujajo, celo svoje LASTNO, pod imenom KULT316, tega varijo dijaki in študenti BIC-a v pivovarni v okviru šole (vrhunski okus, malce bolj grenko in izdatno, le poskusite 🍻🍺), kar je res pohvalno. Ali pa klepet z nekom oz. solo izlet v Botanični vrt nadgradite z domiselnim gin tonikom. Alkohol je torej tudi v Primuli na voljo, le prej se napršite proti komarjem, ki iščejo svežo kri v poletni senci.

Lovely bar/Tea House/Ice cream parlour in the heart of Ljubljana, in green scenery at Botanical Garden of Ljubljana. Generous variety of black, green and herbal teas, delicious home made ice cream, tasteful gin tonics acompanied with cakes and cookies that are hand made and melt in mouth. Tea house Primula also offers its own craft beer, very special taste, a bit on a heavier and bitter side, but delightful. Ask for KULT316 beer 🍺🍻 Come to Primula as often as you can if u live in Ljubljana, but it's a definite must if you are just traveling through and visiting capital of Slovenia. You will love Botanical Garden Ljubljana and enjoy your rest stop at Primula to refresh yourself with a chosen drink or pastries (and/or ice cream) while taking a break in a green oasis of Ljubljana...

Cute little place hidden inside the botanical garden of Ljubljana. Maybe not the biggest or grandest garden you could visit, it is worth to come here and stroll around. One of the main reasons being this great caffee! They also offer lactofree and plant based milk. We also received a tall glass of water along with it, which definitely is not standard, and we greatly appreciated it in such heat!

If you are lucky enough, they will have their homemade ice cream - the sorbet are free of milk, so suitable for vegans and anyone with lactose or milk intolerance. I had the cherry and mango one - both tasted heavenly and were like frozen mushed up fruit. Incredible!

They also offer home baked sweets and treats to take with you. Don't miss this spot on your visit in...

A Hidden Gem for Ice Cream Lovers

This is, hands down, the best ice cream in town. What makes it even more special is that it's run by culinary students from the nearby school center, bringing a fresh and creative touch to every flavor.

While other local favorites like Romantika, Vigo, Cacao, and Zvezda certainly offer great options, this place stands out for its commitment to quality and natural ingredients. The ice cream here has the highest fruit content, noticeably less sugar, and the portion sizes are generous.

If you're looking for a more natural, fruit-forward ice cream experience, this is the...
