What is it?

A Slovak restaurant in an old house on Beblavého Street, on the slope that climbs to the castle. "Honest" cooking, as they put it, from Slovak recipes, in vaulted rooms. It is the special dinner of a day in Bratislava, without being expensive by Vienna standards.

When to go

On weekdays it opens only in the evening, from 17:30 to 22:00; on Saturday and Sunday, from 12:00 to 22:00. In November it holds the kačacie hody, the seasonal roast duck menus. Tables are booked only through the form on its website.

How it fits into the day

If you do the day trip from Vienna, it is the Saturday or Sunday lunch on the way down from the castle; on weekdays, dinner if you stay the night.

What to order: a Slovak dish from the menu; in November, the duck of the *kačacie hody*.
