There is a type of bar for everyone in Prague – from afternoon cafe type bars to all night discos, although when asking this survey question I initially was thinking of the beer garden.
Being part AmCzech myself, I started going to bars with my Czech Grandpa when I could barely walk. As time went by, it didn’t take long for those Shirley Temple tap dancing lessons to pay off and for me to tap dance on the tables to entertain his friends. For some reason I don’t think all Czech kids grew up that way … but it was all innocent and fun enough.
Now that I’m grown, I’m beyond entertaining the men in the bar by dancing on the table. Instead I sit in a chair and enjoy my pivo. My kind of bar is a place where people, music, and conversation happen. When in Prague I found such a place in the bar across the street from the entrance to Petrin Park, U Ujezd. It reminded me of bars at home, yet no matter how many times during my stay in Prague that I sat in that bar, it still felt foreign. I wrote a little bit about it at the end of Chasing My DNA: Part I.
So, do you have a favorite bar in Prague? Tell us about it? Why do or did you go there? What neighborhood is it in? Do or did you go there often?
