Bistro Štorja

A culinary and wine experience beneath a staircase

Chef:Marko Stanković


A real story in a real wine cellar

Postojna is a story beneath ground. The mysterious humanfish lives in its caves in eternal darkness. Štorja is a story beneath a staircase. Thanks to this Story Postojna no longer lives in the culinary dark!

One often needs to travel a long way to reach such a restaurant that offers a winning combination of restaurant and wine bar, here, however, you only have to travel to the centre of Postojna and down beneath its staircase. Elsewhere in this kind of restaurant the waiting staff wear white gloves, the prices are inflated, and guests have overly high expectations. Here, however, the chef’s amuse bouche has more courses than tasting menus offered elsewhere.

Ambience

A descent of the steep staircase leads to a ‘place where you can be pampered every day of the week’, with white table linen, wine glasses and a relaxed atmosphere
