“Nice location large indoor and outdoor seating. House selection on tap. Food menu was pretty large with a focus on pizza, salads, and pasta.“

“After much struggling, I entered this place to Ratebeer because it has two different Serbian beers and two different Bosnian beers in bottles, in addition to the usual local Heineken variants on tap. As a restaurant, it was one of the few in all of Slovenia that offered tasty and filling vegetarian options in addition to the usual meat offerings. Staff was friendly, it's non-smoking, it has a large patio. And there was a steady stream of Wolt and Glovo drivers taking their food around the city. Worth the pleasant 15 minute walk from the center.“

“Two sides to this pub. On your right as you enter is a cozy dining area. To your left is a sports bar sort of thing. You can order food at either, but since no one else was eating, neither did I. The taplist is entirely Heineken and its brands, including Lagunitas IPA. The only craft bottles I saw were from Reset, a cream ale and an IPA. The cream ale was rough stuff so I skipped the IPA. Service was indifferent. Last resort sort of place.“

“I entered this place because it's the only place in town I was able to find Lobik beers. In fact, the Lobik brewer told me about it. It's otherwise a coffee place, with tasty beans that they roast among themselves. Nice shady patio. Worth walking the few extra blocks past Gramofonteka. Also a great wine shop next door.“

Mix Markt Maribor (Grocery Store)
ULICA EVE LOVSE 1
“This shop is inside the large Mercator Center Tabor and has a typical selection of beers from the current and former Evil Empire. Less typically, they have a much larger selection of kvass than most stores of its type. Staff was very helpful in identifying the countries of origin of all the beers despite speaking only Russian and Slovenian, no English. At less than 2 Euro for a 2 liter PET of kvass, you can't afford NOT to have an Untappd At Home kvass frenzy. Plenty of grocery items to pair it with; if there's something you can't find, the much larger Mercator in the same complex will surely have it.“

“It's really not fair to rate this place at the moment, so consider this a placeholder and ignore the numbers. Dive bar atmosphere in a perfect location overlooking car a and pedestrian bridges, and within site of the old city walls and towers. Cozy interior with great music and lots of music memorabilia. Occasional live music. The problem is, they were closed for nearly two years, not only from Covid, but also because the riverfront was being renovated and they were in the middle of the construction zone. So they reduced their beer stock to the usual suspects, although they do have one Reservoir Dogs beer on tap as well as Guinness and other Diageo products. Bottles are only Lasko and Union. But now that the construction is almost completely finished and the riverwalk looks great, the owner is planning to restock the bar with craft beer - he claims they had 50 beers from around the world. Anyway, I will revisit then an update the score. Still a great place to hang out, with friendly staff and owner.“

“Cozy place, one and a half rooms, the larger of which has a serving bar. Outdoor tables. Half a dozen beers on tap included Staropramen, a new Lobik IPA and others I can't remember. Good service. Decent enough.“

“Huge place that caters to tourists; they sat me in the English speaking section and gave me a menu. Large outdoor patio, the rest is fairly uninteresting. Service is slow but friendly. Beer list is all from Pivovarna Maribor. Pizzas have a very thick crust, chewy and doughy if you like that, but not the genuine article. Nice place.“

“This is a live music venue with occasional DJs and dance music, open only on Friday and Saturday evenings. The DJ was sick the night I visited, so it was just a bar. Inside is the actual bar and some bar tables, more tables outside. No food. Only one craft beer, Pelicon 3rd Pill pale ale. Friendly service. Limited.“

“I was the only person in the bar who was not a local and a regulator. Small place, comfortably crowded on a Thursday night. Taplist was mostly Czech lagers but also included a stout from Clef and a couple of sours from Croatia. The crowd more or lkess adopted me, and the barman/owner would not let me pay for my beers. Great night.“

“On a main tourist thoroughfare just north of the main square, bunch of other pubs and restaurants nearby. Taplist on a chalkboard outdoors had little in common with the taplist inside; seems easy enough to change. One server doing her best but struggling a bit to keep up with a full restaurant and bar with two rooms. Decent selection of Bevog on tap, not much else. Food was decent. Worth a look.“

“Probably the top beer place in Maribor at the moment. Four stool bar, six taps, two coolers of bottles. Two cozy rooms, one on either side of the bar, nearly full on a Wednesday evening, mostly a young crowd, including one German and two Portugeuse people who were there for beer. Large covered deck out back with a handful of young smokers who were not drinking.Taplist was mainly Czech and most bottle were Croatian (Garden Brewery is abundant) although they had a decent Slovenian selection as well including Reservoir Dogs. Owner knew the beers well and the local beer scene, though he was lamenting the decline of the latter. No food. Enjoyable place.“

“A restaurant within the cable car station. Sort of dislocated taproom for Maribor brewery. Tehy offer their pale and dark lager and one seasonal special - it was Pale Ale when I visited. Food looked OK, though I didn't eat. Prices are a bit of the more expensive side, but it is almost on the ski slopes. I prefer their central location, but if in that area, the beer is fine.“

“A cosy musical and craft beer alternative bar in the centre of Maribor. The owner imports some of the beers himself so there's a better selection than in other bars in town. Slovenian craft beers on tap and in the cans (also Poutnik on tap), some Bevog, Mad Scientist and a few others in the fridge. Relaxed atmosphere, music playing from the gramophone (hence the name). As far as I understood, Pir shop was merged with this place.“

“An OK looking restaurant in the centre of Maribor. Nothing special regarding beer - 4 house beers (lagers of various sorts) and a couple of macros. The food does look better here. The terrace is also a nice place to sit and just let the day pass. Good for food and new ticks, nothing to write home about.“

“It's asmall, local bar just a bit outside of the Maribor centre. Basically, the only thing that distinguishes it from any other bar is that they make their own beer - light, dark and special Christmas one. Would really make a detour, but iif in teh area or passing by, why not. Nothing special really.“

“A very nice little hipster bar in the center, on a street where lots of similar bars are situated. Six taps, nothing to interesting on them. I asked about the bottles, but they said they had only their macros: Laško and Union. Disappointed, I ordered two of the local craft beers which were overpriced.“

“We lived close, so we spent quite some time here. Had a great Panini and a few very good beers. Bevog on Tap, two HumanFish, Zmajska as well. Taplist seems to vary a little, as well as bottles available. Service was great, the waiter was nice, described the beers we asked him about well and gave good recommendations. On the weekend, this place, as the whole street, becomes crowded, and service becomes slower and less focused on quality, but quantity - which i sto be expected, they wouldn’t be able to serve everyone otherwise. Just know: if you’re here for easy craft drinking with good recommendations, come early.“

“Damn fine place. Open on Sunday (rare in this town at this time of year) until midnight. Bartender loves American music, with a good dose of rockabilly. Solid beer selection, at least 20 Slovenian bottles. Probably 40 bottles from the rest of Europe with a random American beer or two. Solid whiskey selection. Cash only. It’s here despite it not being present in Google maps. Right next to Šiš (which is in Google maps) and has food.“

“Pub like place. Not really very interesting though, they have a couple of fullers options on tap. And then some bottles, mostly internationals that are easy to find elsewhere too, only Slovenian beer was Mali Grad Pale Ale. Not worth your time.“

“the place is located on, I would call it "pub-street", very lively on a friday evening, no chance to get a table outside. inside was ok though. 5 taps, and then a fridge full of bottles (around 25-30 kinds). 3 of the taps were bevog beers, i think one humanfish (actually not sure now), the 5th tap handle showed Zmajaska, but actually they had a AleSmith Double IPA on. The fridge is mainly internationals, but still quite nice ones. I had a single of AleSmith Nut Brown Ale & Wicked Weed Tropicmost Gose. Service was quite helpful and friendly. Prices were quite good, I paid for each of the beers 5,80 I think. In all the european online webshops I saw the tropicmost gose it was like 10 euros, so rather a good deal. Overall nice place, selection of local beers could be better though.“

“Nice dive bar-ish place close to the river. biggest selection of the beers of the bars in maribor (isabella is close 2nd). also good selection of slovenian beers, about 10 beers, by mali grad, lila misa & humanfish. also 6-7 bevog options. apart from a good selection of rather well-selected international favorites. like ayinger urweisse, andechser dunkelweisse, de ranke xx, some de molen, brewdog, oakham & some fullers. overall about 60 bottles total, only tap is stiegl & stiegl radler. i found the beers not to be that cheap (around 4euroish), but i think my expectations were off. overall worth the visit, best selection of slovenian beers from any of the bars i visited.“

“Small bar in the old town. It also has a couple of tables on the street that are really cozy if the weather is fine. Small selection of both macro and micro brewed beers. 4 taps that are probably not fixed but when I was there they had one Bevog and one HumanFish beer. They also have some local and foreign (Danish, American, Belgian and Scottish) beers by the bottle. The saladas and sandwiches are also delicious. Nice place for sure.“

“We visited this brewpub on 11.10.2013. It’s located in the suburbs of Maribor. First impression is a bit dingy. A small pub with a beer garden close to a noisy road. They have two beers (blond and dark), which are better than the beers of the other brewpub in Maribor, also service is nicer. You can also miss this place, however it seems to be the best choice in Maribor.“
