€Regional Cuisine, Traditional Cuisine
This restaurant stands on the premises of the Pilsner Urquell brewery. Diners are seated in a lofty vaulted cellar featuring a modern-meets-rustic decor and a striking service station in the middle of the space. Modern Czech cuisine and traditional hearty beer-hall dishes are all meticulously prepared and packed with flavour. The chefs put a premium on regional ingredients sourced from local suppliers. Of course, a good beer goes well with it. Tip: For special occasions, you can book the ‘Schalender’ in the brewery's lager cellars. Also interesting: brewery museum and shop.

Located within the Pilsner Brewery, Na Spilce serves traditional Czech cuisine and fresh draft beer. Food quality is generally praised, with dishes described as delicious and the beer, particularly the unfiltered Urquell, highly rated. Service experiences vary significantly; while some find staff friendly and efficient, others report rudeness and operational issues. The ambiance features a spacious, windowless basement that feels modern yet sterile, lacking the cozy charm of a traditional cellar. It is suitable for travelers seeking authentic local beer and hearty meals, though visitors should manage expectations regarding the minimalist atmosphere and inconsistent service.
Ideal for beer enthusiasts visiting the brewery, but maintain realistic expectations regarding service consistency and the sterile basement atmosphere.
€€Czech, Beef
This small restaurant may be a little off the beaten track, but it's well worth coming here for the regional cuisine. Quality ingredients are skilfully prepared to impart plenty of flavour. The restaurant rears its own cattle, hence the focus on beef – delicious dishes include beef tongue with celeriac purée and horseradish foam, or beef ribs with coleslaw and bread. The interior has a charmingly rustic quality; in summer, dine out on the terrace, which is surrounded by greenery. Should you wish to soak up this rural idyll a little longer, there is also a campsite.
