Osmiza Pipan is one of those rare successful combinations of rural tradition and modern comfort, between wine shacks and baptism locations. Located in the heart of the Carso, in that cultural frontier strip where Italy ends, Slovenia begins, and the Austro-Hungarian Empire seems to have never really gone away, this osmiza represents the “civilized” evolution of the concept.
Forget the old improvised osmize with two barrels, three boards and zero tablecloths. Here there is space, a large parking lot (always full, but at least it is there!), real tables, surprise desserts and also the possibility of celebrating events from the parish calendar: birthdays, communions, company dinners and reunions of friends of prosecco and digestive age.
The wine, of course, flows. Less rustic, more pleasant than that of the more spartan osmize, but still sincere enough to loosen tongues and encourage sociability. When the barrel is empty, the party fills up. This is how it works.
The savory menu is classic but well-prepared: rustic but not heavy cold cuts, cheeses at the right temperature, perfect pickles and sausages in a carriage that act as a bridge between Balkan street food and Alpine comfort food. All laid out, with surprising elegance, on a generous bed of rocket (which immediately makes you say “sorry, I’m eating green”).
But the real surprise? The desserts. Real, present, well-made. In an osmiza! It seems like a small karst miracle.
The large lawn, almost mandatory for new-generation osmize, is perfect for freeing children at a safe acoustic distance. No obvious danger, just lots of green to run around, roll around, and - if you want - lose shoes.
In short, Pipan Klarič is one of the best tamed osmize for those who come from the city but don’t want to give up folklore, rusticity and the pleasure of a good glass drunk in the shade of a pergola.
And be careful: after this experience you seriously risk wanting to explore even the less sober versions scattered around. But at least start from here, where the Carso is rough, but with grace.

Ozmiza Pipan Klaric is very well-kept and welcoming.
It has a large parking lot, numerous tables for large groups of people, and is suitable for children given the large surrounding garden.
This place is an oasis of peace in the middle of vineyards and olive trees.
The menu offers typical dishes found in ozmice: cooked ham, raw ham, roast pork, salami, cheeses, vegetables in oil, savory strudels and much more.
I also recommend trying their elderberry syrup, which is delicious with both water and wine.

Ozmiza Pipan Klaric welcomes you in a refined and welcoming environment. The large parking lot is a real plus.
This place is ideal for large gatherings, thanks to its spacious tables, perfect for hosting large groups. And if you have children, don't worry: the large surrounding garden is a true paradise for the little ones, who can play freely while you enjoy a moment of relaxation.
The menu celebrates tradition with a rich and genuine proposal. You can savor the authentic flavors of cooked ham, raw ham, tender and tasty roast pork, salami, local cheeses and vegetables in oil. There is no shortage of surprises, such as delicious savory strudels and much more to discover.
And for a touch of sweetness and freshness, I highly recommend you try the elderberry syrup they produce. It is truly delicious, perfect to enjoy diluted with water for a refreshing drink, or for an original touch to mix with wine.

Tagliere stupendo e super buono...il prosciutto arrosto ,spaziale! Anche il formaggio con marmellata era speciale.
Vino fermo o frizzante...noi abbiamo preso bianco frizzante piacevolissimo, anche lo strudel caldo di salumi o di semi era ottimo. Bella location con ampio parcheggio.
