Restaurants in Prag

Cultural Dining Gems

Prague's most storied places to eat and drink — a 500-year-old monastery brewery, the pub that first served Pilsner Urquell on tap, and grand Art Nouveau and Cubist cafés once filled with writers and revolutionaries. Every entry here is a destination in its own right, not just a place to grab a meal.

U Pinkasů

Open since 1843, this beer hall was the very first place in Prague to pour Pilsner Urquell on tap, and still serves it alongside hearty Czech classics.

Grand Café Orient

The world's only Cubist café, designed by Josef Gočár in 1912 inside the House of the Black Madonna — as much an architectural landmark as a place for coffee.
