Gostilna Mahorčič

From grandma to daughter-in-law

Rural restaurants are a national treasure! These are restaurants where every dish is cooked according to grandma’s recipes, mum’s hands, and daughter-in-law’s ideas. And, even though each such restaurant has its own specialities, differences and dialect, the same qualities prevail in all of them – hospitality, homeliness and genuineness. Gostilna Mahorčič in Rodik isn’t just one among them but rather one of the best rural restaurants in Slovenia!

While the motorway traffic rushes by outside, albeit far enough away, inside, at regular intervals, slowly – so there is time for both conversation and rest – food arrives served on family porcelain, which is placed on snow-white and carefully ironed tablecloths. Gostilna Mahorčič is a blend of simplicity and perfection with tradition and modernity.

This is its greatest feature, which has been passed down to the fourth generation, while the fifth generation has already built the future. In Slovenia, there are increasingly fewer such traditional, homely, family inns with a bar for locals, a radiant stove where the warmth makes one literally purr, jota stew for day trippers, chicken soup for health, pasta for generations, lodgings for travellers and potica to take home. But there are even fewer inns that have all this, but not just like yesterday, rather like today and for tomorrow. Mahorčič is such an inn!
