Bib Gourmand 1

Štipec

Bib Gourmand€€Czech, Contemporary

It's no wonder this delightful restaurant in the city centre is a favorite among locals. The vibe is rustic and vibrant, the staff are exceptionally friendly and attentive, and the food is top-notch. Using select ingredients, the kitchen team delivers a contemporary take on Czech cuisine that is down-to-earth and packed with flavour. Signature items such as charred cabbage and short ribs are not to be missed. There is also a solid wine selection. In summer, the lovely covered terrace out front beckons.

Na Spilce

€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.

U Štěpána

€€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.
