U Vejvodu (I think its called) in Vejvodova, ona of those small alleys between Old Town Sq. and Nar. Trida. It's got a massive beer hall downstairs, you can reserve for a rather big group, good tankova Plzen and quite ok food. U Sumave, in Stepanska almost Jecna. Maybe the best Budvar in town, down at heel place with good service, good food and good prices. My favorite in the centre, though, is Ferdinanda, in Opletalova. They serve the underrated Ferdinand beer, from Benesov, the special Sedm Kuli is something that every beer lover should try. They have some of the friendliest service I have seen here and the food is not bad at all.<BR/>And now that someone has mentioned that Pilsen Urquell as preferable. It is a personal taste, but I have got a bit tired of it, and i think that it is not as good as it used to be, unless it's tankova. I have started to favour the stuff from small and independent breweries, the likes of the above mentioned Ferdinand, Svijany or Klaster, just to mention three. At the right place, they are, in my opinion, far more interesting than the usual ones.<BR/>MAX<BR/>PS: If we are speaking about places in Mala Strana U Tri Cernich Ruzi is great. Now if you want to go a bit up the hill, to Loretanske Namesty, you must really go to U Cerneho Vola. Amazing Kozel 12 for 25.50 a pint and really good snacks.Pivní Filosofhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17883511608403454943noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9117457965555197769.post-38719673834232639352007-03-13T21:45:00.000+01:002007-03-13T21:45:00.000+01:00What about that goose place near the Hotel Contine...What about that goose place near the Hotel Continetal?

It is on a side street to the right as you face Malastranske Namesti. Think they have Pilsner. But can't be sure it doesn't fail some conditions. There are only a few tables.Brewstahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07696497881565368117noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9117457965555197769.post-1186666519376711972007-03-13T20:02:00.000+01:002007-03-13T20:02:00.000+01:00It takes us weeks to solve this last dilemma and n...It takes us weeks to solve this last dilemma and now you give me a new list of requirements to deal with?
