http://www.ivebeenthere.co.uk/ Welcome to Been there. Your tips on the places you know - that you love, live in or have just visited - are what make this guide. http://www.ivebeenthere.co.uk/tips/34593 As well as a long and detailed wine list, Red Pif offers a daily food menu including varied meat and fish main courses as well as charcuterie plates for sharing.
Not the cheapest place to drink in Prague (many wines are around 60 czk for a small glass, and there is a corkage charge of 100 czk for drinking in-house), but certainly one of the most trendy. Book ahead – Red Pif only has about 10 tables for diners, and is deservedly busy throughout the week.]]> http://www.ivebeenthere.co.uk/tips/34593 http://www.ivebeenthere.co.uk/tips/32906 As well as a special location, Čajovna Ve Věži's boasts a lovely herbal smell throughout and a cosy ambience - decor includes mismatched chairs and tables, Persian rugs, a large Buddha and several small oriental wall hangings. Like a favourite teddy bear, everything looks a little tired but well loved.
The menu is only available in Czech, although as most teas have Japanese or Chinese names, this is not too tricky. Staff speak some English but a phrase book might be useful.
Čajovna Ve Věži offers over 80 teas (from 40 to 115 CZK) from India, China, Japan, Turkey, Nepal, Vietnam and Tibet, as well as some fruit teas and non-caffeinated teas. A small selection of soft drinks is also available, as well as wine.
Light snacks are also offered – nuts (from 30 CZK), sandwiches (35 CZK), corn on the cob (44 CZK) and sushi (85 CZK).
Slightly slow service is more than compensated for by the location, atmosphere, and the excellent teas.]]> http://www.ivebeenthere.co.uk/tips/32906 http://www.ivebeenthere.co.uk/tips/32465 Sudička offers an intimate, cosy space for drinks or dinner, lit by candles and low lighting.
The menu is creative, with a range of excellent salads (my favourite is smoked salmon with strawberries), cheese specialties including raclette and fondue and heartier dishes to warm your cockles throughout winter. Sudička boasts an impressive wine list (including several by the glass) as well as a particularly wide range of teas.
Lovely staff and very reasonable prices complete the experience.]]> http://www.ivebeenthere.co.uk/tips/32465 http://www.ivebeenthere.co.uk/tips/31234 On winter evenings it’s a lovely place to go with friends for wine of varying prices but consistently good quality. Many are available by the glass. During the summer, sit in the peaceful courtyard at the back of the restaurant for al fresco dining.
The evening menu is very good but the real bonus is the daily lunch menu - choose between two and three courses, with or without wine, and you will have change from 200CZK.
Expect European cuisine with a twist of Czech including duck, rabbit and dumplings.]]> http://www.ivebeenthere.co.uk/tips/31234 http://www.ivebeenthere.co.uk/tips/21179 http://www.ivebeenthere.co.uk/tips/21179 http://www.ivebeenthere.co.uk/tips/21176 http://www.ivebeenthere.co.uk/tips/21176 http://www.ivebeenthere.co.uk/tips/21126 http://www.ivebeenthere.co.uk/tips/21126 http://www.ivebeenthere.co.uk/tips/9896 http://www.ivebeenthere.co.uk/tips/9896 http://www.ivebeenthere.co.uk/tips/9718 http://www.ivebeenthere.co.uk/tips/9718 http://www.ivebeenthere.co.uk/tips/3023
Huge beer cellar with good atmosphere, mentioned in The Good Soldier Švejk.

Worth remembering for the fact it serves food very late - up to 1am normally - which is extremely handy to know if you've just arrived in Prague off a late train/plane.

And as an added bonus, the food's both decent and fairly reasonable - expect to pay about CZK 250-300 for a hearty meal plus a beer or two.]]> http://www.ivebeenthere.co.uk/tips/3023 http://www.ivebeenthere.co.uk/tips/3016 http://www.ivebeenthere.co.uk/tips/3016
