Reviews
A fantastic brewery experience in Prague. The Czech Lion 11° was outstanding—fresh, crisp, and full of flavor. I actually enjoyed it even more than Pilsner Urquell. The grilled Hermelín wrapped in bacon was delicious and paired perfectly with the beer. Great atmosphere, friendly service, and excellent value. If you’re looking for an authentic Czech beer experience, this place is a must-visit.
It is a simple place but the beers and the food specials are great! We came for a leisurely luncheon, focusing on the beers and the daily specials like stuffed cabbage and goulash soup, all served in generous portions and at a very reasonable price. Service is attentive and kind, we loved sitting outside in the shade and taking it easy.
Finally! A restaurant/brewery in the heart of Prague that isn't overpriced and isn't a tourist trap. Here you can eat and drink at truly reasonable prices. The waiter is very friendly, humorous, and attentive. We had a pleasant time. The interior also has a quirky, ironic feel, as if you were sitting in a hunting lodge.
A great dinner at Pivovar Národní. Started with their Czech Lion 11 beer and a Pilsner Urquell. Then had the pork cheeks, which were super tender and the beef goulash. Lovely flavours although wasn't the biggest fan of the bread dumplings but still a good way to mop up the gravy!! Prices were decent too! Lots of outdoor and indoor seating. Nice service by the staff- would recommend!
What a find! We ducked in to escape the snow for a quick beer and ended up staying for food and four beers. Super service, lovely food, and really reasonable prices. The burger was proper homemade, and the liver and onions were excellent. They brew their own beer, and a pint was about £2.50! Highly recommend for great beer and hearty Czech food.
