The capital of the Czech Republic is known for its nightlife, with the second-highest density of bars in the world. Whether you like traditional taverns or late-night lounges, beer or wine, there’s something for everyone in Prague. These are the bars you should visit while in Prague.

Hemingway Bar

The award-winning cocktail lounge is named after Ernest Hemingway, who was almost as famous for his writing as his drinking. The bar’s furnished with Cuban-inspired decor with wood furnishings and leather seats. There are over 200 kinds of rums as well as a cocktail list with lots of absinthe and champagne.

Bar Cobra

In the afternoons and evenings this bar has table service and at night it turns into a DJ-packed party from Thursday to Saturday. What once was a 24-hour gambling bar has been converted into a design-led space with broad windows, distressed walls, and high ceilings.

U Zlatého Tygra

This pub has hosted conversations between presidents, poets, and influential Czechs, and while there, you’ll get a taste of Prague’s old-school drinking culture. Part of the pub’s charm is its wooden benches and arched ceilings.

Bukowski’s Bar

Don’t expect to find unique drinks or modern decor at this bar named after iconic writer Charles Bukowski, which has classic, reasonably priced cocktails. Make sure you eat before you get to the bar as there’s no food on the menu.
