Irish pub — Restaurant in Upravna Enota Ljubljana

Me and my group were looking for a nice place to listen to some music and get a drink. At a glance, Harat’s appeared to be everything we hoped for. Nice decor and menu full of pictures with english descriptions. I couldn’t find an entertainment line up on line, but luckily there was a performance that started shortly after we arrived.

Overall, i would say it was a decent experience but there were a few things we didn’t enjoy.

Seating:

First we expected the pub to be busy and crowded. Thats natural for any pub, and it includes bumping rubbing against people to move around.

Consequently, when we walked in with our group of four. It took a bit to seat ourselves. However, what i noticed was a couple occupying a table for a group of 4 to 6 people. In my opinion, large tables should have a sign that reads “reserved for groups of X to X”.

Additionally, on the left side of the room there was plenty of space to walk around. Conversely the right side was tight. Theres an opportunity there to evenly distribute the chairs on both sides. This way all the patrons get that good ole pub feeling throughout room.

Ordering:

Food and drinks have to be ordered at the cashier. Which is understandable for this type of business. Although, an order here sign would help. We found ourselves standing in the wrong spot to order at first. Then you have to yell or point at what you want to order. But, once again its a pub and should be expected. The staff were really nice though and spoke english well.

Volume:

The volume was way too loud for a pub. It reminded me of being next to the speaker at a club. Typically, there is a lot of noise at a pub from all the conversations happening. However, it was really hard to have a conversation over the music.

Food:

The food was our biggest disappointment. The presentation from the menu to the table couldn’t have been any better. However, of everything we ordered we only liked the cheese and bacon fries, and mozzarella sticks The rest of our food was decent to not good. The beef medallions tasted like they were boiled, and there was no flavor. The chicken wings also lacked flavor. The truffle fries were soggy. Finally, the cheese balls just had a weird creamy bread texture. Overall, the food left of us with regret. The one good thing is that it came out fairly fast.

Overall, the establishment has the potential to host a great experience. However, at the moment i would only recommend it for...

We arrived in Ljubljana in the evening quite hungry, so we ventured out and after struggling to pick a place because many were busy we chose Harat’s, though the menu was a bit small. The waitress seemed nice at first, she came out to tell us shortly after my partner ordered at the bar that there was absolutely no more white wine which we had ordered, as the mulled wine is so popular that they run out of all wine. She said you’ve already paid so is there another drink you’d both like, maybe a cocktail? At this point it came across as if whatever we chose was fine as they made a mistake and it would be on the house basically, even if it cost a little bit more. We ordered Jameson and Coca Cola. Our food came out and for the most part it was quite delicious however fries weren’t even warm really, burger was nice and the onion rings tasted like ones you cook from a frozen bag in the supermarket. We were quite happy though until we were a couple of minutes from getting up to leave and the waitress returned, telling us we have to pay for the drinks we got instead of wine. We were kind of surprised but who can be bothered arguing in a situation like this? I asked if we can pay by card and she said “well you can but I know your partner has 10 euros in his wallet” which I thought was a bit rude and unprofessional. She also implied she was kind of doing us a favour because to right the bill it would have been 10,80 but she was only asking for 10. Also where I’m from, cocktails are usually the most expensive drink on the menu so unless it’s different here, I felt uncomfortable like the waitress had tried to get us to order the most expensive type of drink on the menu when we couldn’t have wine, with plans to collect the money later without discussing payment immediately which would have been much more appreciated. The whole experience made us regret going to the Irish Pub and I can’t...

An Unforgettable Tuesday Night at Irish Pub – Karaoke Perfection!

I stumbled across Irish Pub on a Tuesday night and it turned out to be one of the best spontaneous decisions of my trip. What I expected to be a casual drink turned into a full-blown karaoke party – and I absolutely loved every second of it.

From the moment I walked in, the atmosphere was buzzing. The bar was alive with energy, laughter, and good vibes. Everyone – locals, travelers, solo guests, and groups – was so friendly and welcoming. It’s rare to find a place where the crowd feels like one big group of friends by the end of the night, but this pub nailed it.

The karaoke setup was amazing. The stage is perfectly positioned so you don’t feel overwhelmed but still get your moment in the spotlight. The sound system was clear and loud without being too intense, and the lighting added a fun, professional feel. What really stood out to me was how easy it was to queue a song – they made it super simple, even if you’re new to karaoke. No waiting forever, no confusion – just smooth, seamless fun.

The staff were fantastic too – super attentive, good-humored, and they clearly enjoy creating a great experience for everyone. Drinks were reasonably priced and the selection was solid, from classic pints to fun cocktails. They kept the service running smoothly even when the place got packed.

Overall, this was way more than just a pub – it was a night to remember. Whether you’re a karaoke veteran or just looking to sing your heart out for fun, this place delivers. It’s got the charm of a classic Irish pub with the personality of a local hotspot, and I honestly can’t wait to go back.

Highly, highly recommended – especially on...
