Julijana Restaurant
exclusive location

Gourmet pleasures

The Julijana Restaurant is situated in Bled’s oldest hotel, the elegant Grand Hotel Toplice. The restaurant can only accommodate some 20 people, which gives it a uniquely intimate character. Thanks to its intimate atmosphere and enchanting views of the lake, the Julijana Restaurant is popular with couples celebrating their anniversary and many a man has proposed to his bride-to-be here.

On the lake shore

Right on the lake shore, shaded by tall chestnut trees, you will find the Julijana Restaurant terrace where you can also enjoy the original Bled cream cake. The menu is adapted to the seasons and the chef is always happy to recommend the specialties of the day. The menu is complemented by a large selection of top Slovenian wines.
