U Fleku

U Fleku is a large pub, restaurant and micro-brewery all rolled into one. Of all the traditional Czech pubs in Prague, architecturally there is no finer example.

U Fleku is located in an ancient building dating from 1499. This huge, sprawling tavern is a complex of rooms laid out in true European beer hall style.

Each room has its own individual design: the Ancient Czech Hall, Academy Hall, Cabaret Hall, Large Lounge, Travelling-Case, Sausage, Vaclav's Room, and then there is the Hop-garden.

The menu has a typical Czech selection of duck, pork, goulash, sausages and roast chicken, served with a choice of dumplings, potato and cabbage.

For drinks, try the beer brewed on the premises. It is called lager, but for British visitors who might be expecting a light beer, be aware this is a dark beer. Alternatively, there are some fairly basic bottles of red and white Czech wine, plus spirits and soft drinks.

U Fleku is popular all year round though, because it offers a good experience of traditional Czech food, beer and entertainment.
