Latest reviews from Roztoky U Prahy

“Located right next to the railway station and leaning on railway tracks, the former Restaurace Vinárna U Nádraží, originally built in the 19th century and adapted in the 1930s has been left to rot since mid 1990s. Recently, however, it was taken over to become a brewpub. Not sure how quickly the works in/on the building itself are going, but its garden was adapted to a gravel patio with a bunch of benches, with a modern containerish bar, working during warmer months of the year (patio-only), serving 6 beers, usually their own, brewed elsewhere currently. It's actually more pleasant than it seems described like that - the immediate area is nice, and the trains passing by here and there add to the charm. Became quite busy with people, usually groups of friends or pairs with dogs, and I enjoyed the atmosphere. You pay immediately at the bar and carry your beers, of course, don't expect table service. The staff wasn't actively striving to become your friend, but did their job fully on point, and have shown care to the dogs unprompted, which is an immediate +1 from me. 6 taps, okay prices. 12° (and the brand new i10˘ from Muflon which replaced Perron's 10° temporarily) is 39/49, which is what 12˘s tend to be in some outlying Prague brewpubs nowadays, not the cheapest around, but a solid medium or lower medium. The ales, however, are 69 for 0.4 - prices around those, say, the much more established (and better and central) Vinohradský keeps for its ales, which, hm, shifts that. HOWEVER, they do have a sampler tray for 119, which I stupidly didn't see until I was on beer no.4, excellent value for a ticker - and you can always order a full glass of whatever seems best. And, eh, well... seems their quality was all over the place before, usually in the lower spectrum. Now, the 12° was a bit rustic but tasty in its own way, the amber ale's aroma wasn't appealing but the taste was of a genuinely pleasant and drinkable classic APA, the "Californian Ale" was a herbal golden ale-oid, okay, the "west coast IPA" was a (pleasant) light west coast golden/amber ale more like, and the NEIPA called "Hazy" was clearer than the "west coast" and obviously dead and infected. Points off for keeping that garbage on tap - hopefully it wasn't intentionally. The new Muflon ended up being the beer I liked the most sadly (for the brewery). There's work to be done there. There's food - mix of CZ pub food (utopenec, hermelin, sausage, spread) and burgers, strips, salads, fries - haven't perused. And that's it - currently, it's a nice patio bar outlet of a brewery that needs some work, with enormous potential once everything is in place. How to get here: Very easy. S4 from Masarykovo nádraží will get you to the Roztoky u Prahy station very quickly, don't head towards the lovely sewage treatment plant and its alluring aromas, but towards the station, once you're out, you should see a huge Perron sign to your left, but you'll have to circle around that building for a minute (nice shady street, you won't mind) till you hit the underpass towards the museum - and the stairs to the patio to your left.“
