Food Scene
Typical Czech pub/restaurant. Great beer and good quality Czech food (i.e. pork ribbs) for decent money. Warning: the service is also typical Czech (they do not smile much and are grumpy). If you want authentic Czech experience, you should try it.

Because of really great beer selection - this pub has on tap a lot of specials and beers from small breweries. The food there is also nice. At weekends it can be more difficult to find an empy table.

Chinese restaurant. The place has running sushi, but we recommend to choose a sushi menu from a card - you will get much bigger fish pieces. We always leave with full bellies and paying similar money as if we would get us a running sushi.

Traditional Czech cuisine made different - using the old traditional ingredients (mostly vegetable which typical Czech person does not even recognize anymore). Professional staff, good prices. The only negative is there is usually a lot of people so reservation is a must and also it is quite noisy there, so not good to just sit and talk.

Mediterranean restaurant with a nice and friendly service (obviously not Czech :D), they offer good quality food and I personally love their "pinsa" which is some "old roman pizza". In a good weather you can also sit outside and enjoy the Prague's atmosphere.

This park, over a century old, shelters intimate nooks and places with wooded areas, open grassy areas, unusual vistas of the city and a large garden restaurant with comfortable seating in the shade of chestnut trees. Vineyards used to be located here, and all that remains today are parts of the original buildings: the Classicist lookout from the 1920s, renovated into a restaurant, and a three-sided obelisk of sandstone from around 1840.

An extensive and rugged park on the hill between Vítkov Hill and the Olšany cemeteries. If you climb to the top, you’ll be rewarded with a beautiful view of Prague. At Parukářka Park, you’ll find three children’s playgrounds, and parents can grab a snack at the nearby legendary underground pub or at the original bar with garden in front of the entrance to the bomb shelter, where an 11 m high climbing wall was built in the stairwell. You’ll also find the Cold War Museum here.

The park has been recently refurbished and offers a really nice view of the valley under the Vysehrad castle. It is located right next to the Bastion, also a recently renovated sight that offers a beautiful view of the Vysehrad castle and the Congress Centre across the valley. Unfortunately, all the reviews of the fancy restaurant that occupies a part of the Bastion say it is not worth a visit.
