Prague restaurants have SO much to offer — and the Prague dining scene is one of the best things of living here. You might not have known that!

I’ve been living in Prague for 2.5 years, and have a circle of foodie friends here. We regularly go out to the best restaurants in Prague, always keeping an eye out for cool new spots. Over time, I’ve built a list of the absolute best places to go out to eat in Prague — and I’m delighted to share it with you.

Prague has changed a lot since my first visit in 2004, when my study abroad friends and I came over for a cheap party getaway.

Come with me — let’s take a look at Prague’s best restaurants!
