Latest reviews from Prague

“As djoeye said, an easy 6 minutes walk from Strašnická, down Mršíkova, not far from Beer Knír and some other places. Enter, climb the stairs, and you'll end up in the bar area with 3 fridges full of beer, a good selection really, and a bar with 5 taps, decent selection - only one tick for me though. Friendly people at the bar, handled things quickly, seem to know beer. There's a bigger, bit generic but fine room after, big tables, but was fairly empty when I visited, with a TV as well. Seems to have food but didn't inquire. All in all a typical craft boozer that I hope finds its crowd in the area, I liked it!“

“One of the most unique places in town, and a place that's kinda easy to skip, what with it being close to the regular tourist haunts at the Museum side of Václavské náměstí. As others said - it's a self service bar. Busy atmosphere, somewhere between very vague steampunk and old school, random beer-related stuff on the wall, what sounded like 80s/90s pop playing. You pay 300czk at the bar (30 of which is the service), and a helpful barman shows you how it works if you're there for the first time - you have 270czk on the card, take a glass, you find one of the 14 taps with descriptions you want to start with, put the card at the sensor sticker, wait for it to register the card, wash the glass and pour away - if you want 0.5l it can get expensive, 0.1l goes from 13 to 25 roughly - but for ticking, it's perfect - found 4-5 ticks, some of which were beers I skipped earlier and ended up with 150czk back on my card, so worth it. If you want more, go ahead. They seem to have okay food for okay prices for the location, and some cans - including a pale ale and IPA made for them by Thrills (there's also an unfiltered lager most likely made for them by the Lobkowicz group, likely the unfiltered Ježek). Apart from Černá Hora/Lobkowicz beers, on tap, there's some Volt, Hradecký Klenot, Bizon, Nová Paka's hemp beer and the saison from a brand new project, O:VAR, so I'm fairly sure you'll find ticks here. Anyway, an easy way to pile up ticks, especially if you're not the 0.3l/0.5l for a tick type, so might be worth checking out.“

“Tiny corner place, walking distance from I.P. Pavlova and Muzeum. Now, I guess, officially Coffeeshop No. 1, but still the same place, as djoeye said, Blah Blah coasters inside. Pushing the hemp thing more than before now. You go in to find 7-8 taps and roughly as many seats at the bar, with pretty much no other options of sitting. 3 taps working (basic Bad Flash beers), 3 people seated at the bar. The lady at the bar didn't seem to be a huge expert but tried to help. The fridge revealed a not-too-huge selection of Sibeeria beers, a couple of Švabín beers, and at least one Tatův sad cider. Pretty basic but okay. Dunno, a weird place to be honest, maybe worth take a look if you're nearby.“

“Visited in February 2024, seemingly after a Bohemians football game as lots of fans were there. A few taps but the main draw for me was the numerous fridges filled with beers from Czech Republic, but also with a decent selection of Polish beers. I picked up some rare ticks here.“

“At over five centuries old, this is supposed to be Prague's oldest brewery. Just to beers, a tmavý and a pilsner, not to be found anywhere else. The place is huuuge, with about eight different halls and a humongous open biergarten in the middle (which I went for.) If you eat meat, good for you: as a vegetarian, I only had two plates to choose from. Accordion players go to and fro, patrons get wasted and sing aloud standing on benches, waiters run between the tables balancing 20 beers on their trays. You'll only taste two new beers, but it's worth the visit.“

“If you take the metro A to Flora and then bus north to the Lukášova bus stop, this beer shop is just 75 metres to walk to. Two dozen taps and beerfridgerators with goodies. They also sell beer snacks. Most beer geeks will find some ticks here.“

“The C-metro goes to Letnany. Then bus further, and one jumps off at Stare Letnany, and the pub is just 150 metres from that bus stop. The building looks as a small hotel. Side building as a cottage. Lively at a saturday evening. Young women were a bit drunk and hungry for attention. Slightly noisy acoustics. Six taps. All very interesting. Ifound a Vik, but it was late, and twentyfive celcius, so I soon travelled back to my hotel. This place is a quite interesting beerspot.“

“Modest gem in Holesovice. Sausages and beers. If twenty persons enter, it is crowded. Radio played a lot of 80s, Genesis, Madonna, Yes, DuranDuran aso. I found a blonde Vik. Ticked in.“

“Lesa than 400 metres from Strašnicka metro stop. Works as local pub. Six taps in good rotation. Some goodies in beerfridgerators. I found a Sibeeria. Heavy metal music from stereo. přítomny čtyři ženy, žádné krásky. Quite plain wooden furniture. Alright service. Approved.“

“After a lot of delays I finally managed to reach this local brewery with barbecue kitchen. One bus was cancelled suddenly, and the next did an extra sightseeing round, but finally reached bus stop Škola Dolní Počernice, which is by the building. Maybe some industrial hall in ancient times, now a modern barbeque restaurant with beer garden and brewery. Pop music, pop service, pop barbeque, nice beers.“

“It's a little far from Prague's city center (like 3 km) but it's serviced by the Jiřího z Poděbrad metro station, just next door, so no big deal. Fun venue: from the door you walk down a flight of stair and find just a few seats, not much; then an entrance to the left leads to a table or two... so far this looks small-ish. Then down another flight of stairs and there you have it! An underground long space with a central bar and 30 taps (about 15 are local.) But it doesn't stop there: go till the end, turn right, and... even more room! Finally, a big window shows the cellar, full of Belgian big names and kegs awaiting their turn.“

“Yay, a taste plank with five 10cl for 199Kč. Ultimate place when one wants to extend one's Sibeerian list. One quality Oud Beersel guest beer among 14 taps . Bad music, good service, very sibeerian.“

“Four kilometres to the east from Vaclavske Namesti is this Bernard Pub. First room has a little handfull of tables and the main bardesk with six taps. Works well as local beer source for the locals. All normal here.“

“Thin concept makes me think of Beer Stations in Slovakia and Ukraine. Long tap row. Everything is potentially beer-to-go. Also beerfridgerators with bottles and cans. Tram 9 goes from Vaclavske Namesti to Bertramka only 100 metres from this place.“

“Kbelsky Pivovar I reached by metro to Letnany, walked exit E1, and bus 185 Kbelsky Hřbitov four stops to Huntiřovska. Then a short walk in same direction as bus continued to the brewery restaurant, which is modern and has eight taps. Wooden tables, black café chairs. Regularly five of their beers though. Girls speak english, service is good, food also, and the beers are cold and tasty. I came when they opened and in a few minutes here were hundred guests. There is a bus stop for bus 185 Letnany (Metro) right outside the restaurant, so drunk driving is easily prevented. Very good beerspot.“

“Potrefena Husa Na Verandach is located very close to the bus&tram stop " Na Knizeci" at Smichov at street Nadrazni ulici. As for interior a modern restaurant and czech cuisine. Sometimes duck or goose on the menu. Naturally a good variety of Staropramens.“

“About 350 metres to the east from bus stop Kolej Strahov, in the basement of a residential block. Dark brown tables and benches, few pictures on their walls, very nice roztomilá taverna dívčína served. Rib eye steak - not as soft as the one at Vytopna. I could choose PU, 2 Kozels and I had a Radegast which was new to me, in a beautiful Radegast mug. Now I have been here, done that.“

“From Pohořelec tram stop a beautiful 200 metres walk through classic bohemian architecture to this hostinec. I believe it is an old tavern. It looks very much hundred years. Furniture are wooden brown benches and tables. PU and two Kozels on tap. Classic czech dishes. Attractive place for authentic czech feeling. U Černého Vola = At Black Ox, moo mooh na zdravi!“

“Googlemaps lead me with metro and bus to this beautiful place. Beautiful manor house in a nice park.Playground for children outside. Modern café inside. Six taps, one had fresh cold Kofola. Two Krušovice, two with other beers. Beautiful tarts. English spoken. Rock music from stereo. I think that I recommend this place, also for a Frau.“

“11 taps at this cozy, wooden-laden pub in the heart of trendy Vinohrady neighborhood. Three rooms: the first one with the taps and fridges, the other two with plenty of tables to sit at. Open kitchen offers some bites, most of them (but not all) fried, including vegan options. English-speaking, friendly service to round the pleasant experience.“

“Long queu on a wednesday. Popular kitchen. one warning: accordion is played. ugggghh. Telecom signals exists, yay. Got an aperitif. Good. This place claims having operated since 1499. I had the svetle, the tmave and nakladny hermelin. With my semiczech words I had luck. Two very good beers . Paired with hermelin cheese. Yay.“

“Upstairs. Then smaller metal stairs for climbing across the rails. Trains are delivering the beers. Just have to be patient and wait for it. And the train may be in a hurry. Short stop. I had a taster set of four of their own beers. And delicious loin/steak. Price level as for location on Vaclavske Namesti. Somewhat high. Very special concept. Maybe a frau would think it is funny and original.“

“Well, this is really good place if you want to try typical bohemian cuisine with Pilsner Urquell in the exceptionaly good shape in the space furnished like a traditional bohemian pub. Prices are here (a very touristic area) quite good. Locals have lunche here, too, which we can't say about most of other restaurants around.“

“A restaurant that used to have the Ferdinand Brewery's beers on tap. Now, they have only same three beers from industrial breweries (Klášter, Lobkowicz) on tap. The beers are in poor quality. Otherwise the food is pretty good and if they give you a lunch menu offer it would be for a good price (but normally, for tourist, they give a regular menu offer with higher prices even during lunch time as it is availaible in the other-than-Czech-language version). Definitely not a good beer place. There are much better places with better beers (and food) nearby. Do not waste your time.“

“Restaurant with a cellar bar with identical working hours and seemingly menus as well. Bit dark, has a patio apparently, classic interior, nice, but pretty much empty. Not a Czech inside or in sight when I was there, around 17 on a Sunday. Typical central Prague PU place, maybe with tank Urquell, maybe not anymore (no tapping dates in evidence). Whichever it is, it is for 69 for a big one. Obviously, no special beer, the former "beer archive" appears to have disappeared as well over the years, they don't even carry Volba Sládků that they have stickers and a tap for. So less choice than even the regular PU place it would seem. Food could be good, wouldn't know, only thing I noted wad that they had some 1/4 duck offer. Waitress wasn't sure about the beer offer, the barman was, both friendly. Could be a decent place, but I saw no reason to stick around from a RB perspective.“

“Historical, beautiful café dating from the 1900's, that you could easily miss due to its narrow entrance being half-blocked by a menu board in CZ and EN, but pass by it and climb a set of stairs and you're there! The place has a souvenir coin machine outside and a souvenir shop inside, and that kinda describes everything. Pro service, pleasant, efficient, busy. It's not a beer place though and its addition is questionable. The menus look nice and the food, breakfast and lunch, seem decent, but almost everyone here was there for coffee and maybe cake, nothing else. Elevated prices, not terrible. The beer selection on tap is Bernard 11° pale, 12° dark and non-alcoholic options. Didn't feel like paying the prices (I think the 0.5s were 65 or 69) so I went for their Grande Cappuccino Louvre, a big, decent mug of roasty Julius Meinl coffee. Go here on a date, with friends or business friends for coffee and cake if you feel like it. Nobody around was drinking beer, which says it all. 4.5 to 5 star café (missing fancier/craft coffee options so maybe down), irrelevant on Ratebeer.com.“

“Typical, albeit far more modern than average "Vietnamese store", probably like hundreds in Prague, undefinable Asian pop playing, mild whiff of vinegar in the air, the sole employee I saw busy with stacking some window shelf. Stereotypical choice for those - macros, one Volfas Engelmann, some Rekorderlig ciders and Cannabis beers - with prices missing below those, likely for tourists not to see the crazy markup they always have. The macro choice is cheaper and better at nearby supermarkets. It's not a bad store of its kind, just zero reason for this to be on the site.“

“Right in Old Town, though not as packed in the tourist zone as the other location. They boast 30 taps of Czech beers. Almost all the list is lagers, with a handful of dark lagers and a couple IPAs. So while there is a large selection, it is not very varied. Supposedly they have some rotating taps but I was told these were also “lager”. The menu was a little lacking, for example one beer was just listed as “porter” without any other identifying information. They have some snacks available. Indoor and outdoor seating. Despite the long tap list I was happy to stay for just 1 beer.“

“Nice courtyard near Prague Castle. You will be ready for your beer after a hilly walk. There is indoor and outdoor seating. They had 5 beers on tap (pale lager, amber lager, dark lager, session ipa, and ipa). They do offer some food too but I didn’t have any. Nice stop, great ambiance, loved sitting outside.“

“Craft beer bar in Old Town Prague. A little away from the tourist hustle and bustle, located in a nice courtyard with outdoor tables, indoor seating as well. Only 3 taps but they have an extensive bottle list, all Czech beers. Plenty of lagers, IPAs, sours, stouts, and “special beer” (wild and barrel aged beers) to choose from. They do samplers but not from the “special bottles” (the wild/barrel aged stuff). Some snacks/small food plates. You will find whatever you want here. More expensive than other places in Prague.“

“After a lunch at Restaurace a Pivovar Řeporyje, it is great having a sweet bite of a delicious tart at this place. October 2023 - one hour of public transport from Vaclavske Namesti to Reporyje. But interesting.“

“To quote myself from the former brewery entry - how to get here? "A loooong ride from anywhere central. Green line to the terminus Depo Hostivař, then 229, 364 or 366 to Dolnoměholupská station, and a very short walk. Alternatively, green line or bus to Skalka, then 111 or 329 to U Střediska and a minute or two more of a walk." Best combined with Vik (which you can reach with S9 and then use the 111/329/20 minutes walk options). After the brewery moved, the former brewery/garage area in a residential road on the very eastern edge of Prague was remodeled into a quaint little brewery store / taproom - light woods, one long table, two pretty well stocked fridges with beers brewed by Panaczech (not just their own), and a couple of taps. The former brewery pug is now a taproom pug and instead of being... fierce, immediately came for scritches. Now that's service! Less enthusiastic service behind the counter perhaps, but I didn't even try to talk much, and it would be weird if they came for scritches too. Seemed they didn't take cash, could be wrong - and I was in a hurry, so I grabbed the two rarest-seeming beers, for okay prices, would've gotten at least 3 more as the prices were pretty good (and I'm a whore for ticks). All in all, a pretty decent visit, I kinda want to do it when less in a hurry (to get the other ticks partly), so I'll be back. :)“

“How to reach: Green line Metro (A) to Skalka, take a staircase to the left, and wait for 111 bus direction Dubeč, taking it way up to Továrny Hostivař, cross the street and follow the signs up until the brewery. Alternatively, with less complication, S9 train to Praha-Hostivař, from there take the underpass towards the left from where you arrived, towards the factory buildings. Go right once you're out of the underpass, and then left when you can, heading straaaaaight until you hit the brewery. Vik, a family brewery, has been a frequent sight these last several years, fighting for its place with a combination of traditional and modern beers, doing some contract brewing, brewing a ton of different beers and I reckon improving. Their location is in the industrial east of the town, though not the hardest to get to, just a mild pain to do so. Right now as Otto said it's "only" a brewery, with a small fridge with 10 or so beers - Vik and Crazy Clown basically. Good prices for the town, some 69, some 89, not sure what the CCs and the 0.75s cost. The guys at the brewery were busy, but friendly and did their best to be helpful. Now, considering the scarce public transport, and nothing else to do at the location, it's not an optimal visit - but once/if they set up the "Polevkárna" that a nearby sign promises, a soup bistro / taproom, it will be a fun visit, right now, eh. Maybe combine it with Panaczech, and either walk for 20 minutes (works with younger friends, glasses and beers bought at Vik), or wait for roughly the same time for the next 111/329 (remember to get off to U Střediska) - maybe with a quick Hubertus 12˘ and/or meal at Gatteo by the station. Yay, another brewery place ticked, very few visitable ones to go (maybe just Kunratice, or Trilobit if visitable, or Staropramen lol).“

“I had no luck with trying to go here early february. Someone reported on internet that they had beers there in january. I travelled one hour from Nad Šárkou by to trams and a bus, and walked in the rain. I found the place, darkened, grid closed on door. So I walked back to nastavka. Later I read on their website that they have a 2weeks vacation until 18th o february.“

“Located close to Divoká Šárka tramvaj nástavke, bus119 and tram26 and many others stop here. Quite roomy hostinec. Even a scéne level for music bands or striptease in one room. Windows with old typewriters as decorations. Icehockey silent on tv, czech punkrock from radio. I ordered medaljonky i brambory. Tap tags and blackboard don't fully agree what's on those 6+4 taps. I got cold fresh examples anyway. Nice place for lunch or dinner and a cold beer or six.“

“Almost as a single garage at Dolníměcholupy. Opens at 13, selling their own beers plus broos and some other beverages. Viking myth inspired beer names. Fair prices I would say. Marko found something in a hurry and vanished to reaching work. I found several and had to make a hotel room stop on my way to next place. 8.2.2024.“

“Located in industrial area. The "Vik"-sign is almost hidden behind a box. You can buy a limited range of their beers from a fridge. Cash works best. Their metal barrels brewing beers dominate the hall. Imperial Saison is coming. I bought a normal lezak. Vizited with Marko 08.02.2024 at 12 noon .“

“Located on Krymska 2 and accessible by trams 4, 13 and 22. Tram stop name is Krymska. This place opens ridiculously late, but you may pop into Bad Flash Bar close to it and have a beer and await if you arrive a bit too early. It is in the basement of Krymska 2, limited phone signals, brick vaults, modern and half dark interior, tables with benches and chairs, music scene. Google says it is a beer hall, but it is closer to music event cocktail bar. Eight visible taps, lots of booze and cocktail options.“

“It's been a loooong time since I made my way from I.P. Pavlova down Legerova in the general direction of the Museum - used to frequent Malý/Velký and after it sadly closed for good during covids, had no real reason to do so - until I saw that a new place had opened, bit further down - the Hákův parní pivovar / Vagabund taproom! Aaand finally had the time to visit it, with djoeye, yesterday. Basement place, modern, in light colours and well-lit, pleasant to be in, with some electronic music playing this time, though that might be the staff's random choice. Not too many people in, mostly younger crowd. Friendly, polite staff, some "new at this" vibes, but nothing negative. At least 11 taps on yesterday, all were Hák or Vagabund (some might say then "all were Hák" XD), plenty I haven't run into yet. Wasn't a huge fan of the 11°, or the Lemongrass, but the Černá 13° was very good! There's further beers in bottles, including gift packs. Food's available, pub fare + stuff in jars that looked pretty decent. Beer prices are decent, from 55 for a big Hák 11° up to 90/95 for the NE and fruited sour choices, 0.33l and samplers possible - The 0.1 samples vary from beer to beer and are sometimes more expensive than half of the 0.5l price, so it's not the cheapest - the most expensive 5x0.1l combo will cost you 239 CZK, the least 158 CZK. Still by all means within reason if you're tick hunting. All in all, considering the location, quite okay. Fairly easily to combine with a bunch of places, and worth visiting, if I was able to find 5-6 ticks without any issues, you'll have plenty more.“

“Located in the region of metro station Prosek. It is just an 800 metres (half american mile) walk to the east. Ambience lively before noon, guests from 1 to 80 years of age. Green ceiling, rosé walls, green and brown furniture, decent menu, six visible taps, normal service. Two big copper barrels behind desk were worked on, and beautiful scents of beer mash reached my nose. Lovely!“

“Be Silly is just 80 metres from Šumavska tram stop. Old building, but modern interior. Five taps with belgian beers, Silly, Enghien (Silly) and Swaf at my visit. I had a super chilled Enghien double , the Be Silly burger and west flemish salad coleslaw.“
