Gostinstvo Vagon se nahaja na naslovu Šentlenart 24, 2382 Mislinja, ob regionalni cesti Velenje – Slovenj Gradec, pred bencinskim servisom Petrol. V poletnih dneh se tukaj ustavijo številni rekreativni kolesarji, saj za lokalom poteka nova kolesarska pot med Mislinjo in Slovenj Gradcem, katero v prihodnosti nameravajo povezati še z Velenjem, v hladnejših mesecih pa prevladujejo predvsem smučarji, ki se vračajo s smučišča KOPE.
Unikaten muzejski ambient, fantastične pice, raznolika tedenska ponudba domačih malic, slastni hamburgerji, specialitete z žara, nabor solat za vsakogar, pohano po želji, jedi s pridihom mehike, nekaj za najmlajše ‘potnike, na hitro ali za posladkat – vse to in še več dobite v gostinstvu Vagon Mislinja, od 30. oktobra 2019 pa vam vse jedi pripeljejo tudi na dom!
Od železniške postaje do ‘konjušnice’ in gostišča, kot ga poznamo danes:
Objekt, v katerem se nahaja gostinstvo Vagon, je nastal že daljnega leta 1899, ko je bila tu železniška postaja. Vlak, ki je vozil na relaciji Velenje – Dravograd, je prav na tej točki dosegel najvišjo nadmorsko višino v Sloveniji. Leta 1968 so najprej ukinili progo za potniški promet, kasneje pa še za tovornega. Nekaj časa je objekt služil kot zatočišče mislinjski mladini za druženje in zabavo ob družabnih igrah.
Maja 1982 je gostinsko podjetje Merx Kozjak Radlje odkupilo ta del in v njem postavilo gostinski lokal, ki se je imenoval Avtobusni bife. Med lokalnim prebivalstvom so ga pogovorno imenovali ‘konjušnica’. Jesen leta 2003 je bila za gostišče prelomna, saj so se lotili obsežnega projekta, ki je zajemal celotno prenovo lokala, letnega vrta in okolice ter spremembo imena v Bar Vagon Mislinja.
Edinstvena picerija s pridihom muzeja:
Popolnoma se je spremenila tudi celotna notranja podoba, ki v določenih segmentih spominja na muzej. S tem so želeli prikazati, kako so se gradili mostovi in predori v Mislinjski dolini. V lokalu najdete tudi repliko pravega vagona, ki je nekdaj vozil po naših krajih.
Gostje so nad unikatnim ambientom izjemno navdušeni, saj jih spominja na otroške dni, ko je vlak za marsikoga predstavljal edino prevozno sredstvo.
Zaradi vse večjega povpraševanja so se jeseni 2018 lotili širitve in prenove kuhinje, saj želijo svojim gostom ponuditi kaj več kot samo pice. S to potezo so zagotovili širšo kulinarično ponudbo, v okviru katere lahko gostje od ponedeljka do petka dobijo sveže malice, v stalno ponudbo pa so vključili tudi hamburgerje in jedi z žara ter dostavo na dom.
V lokalu je notranjega prostora za približno 70 ljudi, zunaj pa še za dodatnih 35 na prijetni senčni terasi.
Gostinstvo Vagon poleg vsakodnevne skrbi za ‘site trebuščke’ kot zavedni občani Mislinje želijo pripomoči tudi k razvoju kraja, zato – kolikor je le v njihovi moči – večkrat na pomoč priskočijo raznim društvom ter organizacijam.
Vse jedi iz ponudbe vam po želji pripravijo tudi za domov in dostavijo do vrat do oddaljenosti maksimalno 15 km. Dostava je možna vsak dan med 10:00 in 21:00 in se obračunava po veljavnem ceniku.

The inn can be found at Šentlenart 23, 2382 Mislinja, next to the regional road Velenje – Slovenj Gradec and the gas station Petrol. In the summer months, the inn is mainly visited by cyclists taking a break on the cycling route between Mislinja and Slovenj Gradec, while, in the winter months, the guests are mostly skiers who visited the ski resort Kope.
The inn offers a unique museum-like ambient and a varied selection of dishes, e.g. fantastic pizzas, an assortment of home-made dishes and salads, delicious hamburgers, grilled specialities, fried dishes, Mexican food, something for youngsters, desserts, and other dishes. From 30 October 2019 onwards, they also deliver food to your home. From a train station to “a horse stable” and the inn as we know it today:
The building was built in 1899. It was first used as a train station. Trains that used the line Velenje – Dravograd stopped here. This was the highest point of any railroad tracks in Slovenia at that time. In 1968, all trains carrying passengers ceased operation. Shortly after, the same thing happened to trains carrying cargo. After that, the building was used as a hangout for the youth of Mislinja for a short time.
In 1982, part of the building was purchased by the company Merx Kozjak Radlje and refurbished as an inn called Avtobusni bife (Eng. Bus pub). It was called “konjušnica” (Eng. horse stable) among the locals. The inn, the outside garden and the surrounding area underwent refurbishment in 2003 as well as another name change. It was now called Bar Vagon Mislinja.
The inn is a pizzeria with a museum-like atmosphere.
The inside of the inn underwent a complete makeover to make it resemble a museum. It is meant to show how bridges and tunnels were built in the Mislinja valley. There is a replica of a railway carriage. Such carriages were once used in these areas.
The customers of the inn are thrilled by the ambient as it reminds them of a bygone era when trains were the only means of transportation for many of them.
As the demand grew, the kitchen had to be expanded and renovated to offer more than just pizzas. In the autumn of 2018, they accomplished just that. Now, customers can order lunch from Monday till Friday as well as many kinds of hamburgers, grilled dishes, and takeaway food.
There is room for 70 customers inside the inn and for another 35 on the terrace.
The inn not only serves food to “empty tummies”, but it also helps the local community and organisations whenever it can.
All the meals from the menu can be prepared and delivered to your home if you are within 15 kilometres of the inn. The delivery is made available every day between 10 a.m. and 9 p.m. and is charged according to the price list.
To order, please call at 00 386 2 88 55 219 or 00 386 31 852 797.
