Intertwining tradition with innovative youthful freshness
New generations bring a fresh impetus of imagination, originality, and creativity. We search for inspiration in nature and its bounty, resulting in an ever-changing atmosphere brought forth by the seasons.
Each dish in our kitchen represents a unique experience and a feast for your eyes and taste buds.
Book a table
A fusion of his own ideas and dishes that were once served at Pen – that is how Chef Mojmir Marko Šiftar envisioned the new menu.
Book your table and try dishes with exceptional flavours in a beautiful setting.
“Due to its rich history, culture, location, ambience and importance, the P.E.N. KLUB is not a restaurant that would settle on merely repeating traditional and familiar flavours, so our chef’s mission is to satisfy the curious and demanding foodies and to educate the dull and sometimes even superficial ones.”
Our story
Located at the crossroads of culture, art and urban life, surrounded by Ljubljana’s monumental neo-Renaissance palaces, a stone’s throw away from Tivoli Park and encompassed by a beautiful garden, the new P.E.N. KLUB restaurant creates a unique and unforgettable dining experience.
