The venue grounds were an empty space, mainly used by skateboarders until September 2000, when [[KUD Mreža Arts and Culture Association]] and the Society for the Protection of Atheistic Feelings (DZAČ) converted it into a club. The stage – and later the wooden upper gallery – was constructed by the volunteer craft group Axt und Kelle from Germany and Switzerland. In the following decade, the managing collective took some time to form the club's identity and find a coherent policy of its programme. Today, its contribution to the diversity of [[Metelkova mesto Autonomous Cultural Zone|Metelkova]] makes Menza pri koritu one of its main social and cultural nodes.

As music is the primary focus of Menza pri koritu, concerts take place on an almost daily basis. In terms of genres, their repertoire is not bound by any of them. There are two regular serials called ''Džez pri koritu'' and ''Punk pri koritu'' – while the later is obviously hosting punk rock music, the former is more or less focused on the more adventurous and loud strains of jazz music. Besides these two, a sizeable part of the programme is dedicated to alternative rock acts, and also to metal music, various experimental electronics, noise, folk, hip hop, electronic dance music and to a number of other musical expressions that hover somewhere in-between. To name notable international acts would be useless, as the list would be far to long even if it would be kept very short.

A latecomer to the Metelkova mesto cultural complex, Menza pri koritu ("Canteen at the Trough") was established in 2000. Formally a youth club, it is actually a multi-purpose creative space, sometimes open throughout the day and offering a wide range of activities, featuring workshops, concerts, poetry evenings, film screenings and theatre performances. It can also be used as either practice grounds for musicians or as a place where one can actually get a cup of Turkish coffee.

Background and management

The venue grounds were an empty space, mainly used by skateboarders until September 2000, when KUD Mreža Arts and Culture Association and the Society for the Protection of Atheistic Feelings (DZAČ) converted it into a club. The stage – and later the wooden upper gallery – was constructed by the volunteer craft group Axt und Kelle from Germany and Switzerland. Still managed by horizontal collective, its contribution to the diversity of Metelkova makes Menza pri koritu one of its main social and cultural nodes.

The place is in fact led by an informal group that comes from various other associations like KUD Kentaver. This core team extensively works with a number of other cultural producers – Infoshop Metelkova, DRMK, IGLU - Improvisational Theatre of Ljubljana, Sploh Institute, Radio Študent (RŠ), FV Music, and festivals like the Druga godba Festival.
