Marian DivilekFebruary 13, 2014Really great food, "normal" as well as the gluten-free. Separate menu for Coeliac customers. Serve also bottled gluten-free beer. Great Czech-pub atmosphere. A must-go-to place for everyone.- Mark BartmanSeptember 20, 2013Gambrinus beer is great. Service is beyond average. We had soup which was luke warm and the goulash which was a big portion of dumplings and greasy meat. All in all not the best place to have dinne
Alexandra ProtsenkoJune 30, 2016We came here accidentally because it was rain outside but we had really nice lunch. Food is delicious, service is good as well.- Irma AugustinJanuary 21, 2015Excellent gluten free food, free wifi, and best "babovka" cake ever! Highly recommended.
Eduardo MNovember 12, 2015Food was good, the waiter was attentive and spoke good English. We spend a nice evening
Ana AlejandreMay 31, 2014Food and service was OK, but prepare your wallet for paying a lot more than in other restaurants around the corner. They charge you 100 crowns for person just for sitting and 21% of taxes.
appricooDecember 29, 2011Awesome food + you get a free drink when ordering a main course at your first check in.- Virgilio AudisioJanuary 4, 2012Main courses are really big and the staff is kind and welcoming. English is spoken
Lewis TAugust 27, 2018First Czech restaurant we tried so nothing to compare to but good portions for mains and fair prices. Tip is included and credit card accepted. Had the beef goulash and duck as mains.
Alexander TzvetanskiOctober 29, 2013Sorry for saying it...but the place is not worth...the beer is good, but all the rest is under all expectations...the food is awful, the waiters rude...I will never go there again...
Aušra KurtkutėOctober 7, 2012Expensive. We tried lamb rolls, gulash, sirloin and none of them was good. Sirloin - sweet souce with beef, lamb rolls with potato dumplings and spinach. Very average food.
Jeff Chang Xin ZheAugust 2, 2014Worst method of charging me an extras of money, first the bread that put along your actual meal you order which cost an additional 100 Koruna, then the tips which force me to put at least 50 Koruna.
Eli EliNovember 3, 20131. I had COLD pork knee. 2. The waiter tried to cheat me with money. She showed me on the calculator owe her 650 CZK. Finally I paid only 250.Bad food service, cheating and my camera was stolen!
Excellent typical Czech cuisine! Try and you will understand. Read more
Melissa LesnovskiJuly 20, 2012Food is ok, not great, not cheap, with small servings. Non-smokers suffer a lot, even when they are inside the restaurant. Drinks are expensive.
Agnes FesusAugust 17, 2012Be careful, the small breads with butter are not free but they bring it without a question
María M.P.August 19, 2014They took such a long time for serving us even there were few people. 2 bretzels, 100kc. They are not free!! High price I'm general
So LondonAugust 16, 2012Tourist trap: be careful and ask for a detailed check (they have us a tiny brown paper with an lousy addition of 6 numbers but no info as to what they correspond to!) and verify the change!!!
Michal VrchotaJune 1, 2015Tourist trap. Food bellow average with price above average. Weird service not serving drinks after 9 pm. German friendly.
Kiko OlmosMay 6, 2013The lamb was tough and the portion was very small. Service is not good, they are undfriendly.- Tatiana GubbelmansApril 4, 2019Horrible service... I have not eaten here because the staff was so unpleasent and absolutly not flexible
Alexander VogtApril 4, 2019Nothing ! The staff is unpleasant, the toilets were dirty and the food was served cold- teoman gunesJanuary 24, 2020sakın gitmeyin. don't go. very bad place. don't eat the crackers. they want 50cz for 1 cracker. tourist trap.
Regina M.July 22, 2014Left after ten minutes without service - after reading the tips I'm glad we didn't stay. Go somewhere else.
МаксJanuary 2, 2015Отличное обслуживание! Нет никакого предвзятого отношения к русским, очень вежливые люди! Пиво, глинтвейн, утка, крылышки...мммм все так было вкусно!!! Счет за все это на двоих 1800р (630 кр)👍👍👍- Iñaki AlisteJanuary 1, 2014Será por la situación (justo al comienzo de la Plaza de Wenceslao) pero es de esos sitios donde básicamente te la clavan por todo. En serio, si vais a Praga huid de los lugares céntricos para comer...
? ??????? ??? ???????January 18, 2016Самое лучшее мясо, которое я пробовала в Праге. Если идти есть - только сюда. Официант, который плохо говорит на русском, но очень старается - просто душка.- Thomas GutwasserNovember 2, 2013zwischen den Fenstern - Gulasch mit Knödel nebst Dunkel - Bier / sehr zu empfehlen

"This is probably the "main attraction" of all of Prague (together with the Prague castle). It's a very lively bridge, filled with people, offering a great view over the river. 😊"
Matthias - 7.3
