€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.
