Cafe Slavia
Most famous Cafe in Prague, cherry-wood and onyx shrine to Art Deco elegance, with polished limestone topped tables and big windows overlooking the river and National Theatre just across the street.
It's a Czech version of Viennese coffee culture; that is to say,
intellectuals gathered here to read papers, discuss politics, plot
artistic activities and drink coffee for hours. Many Czech writers, dissidents and artists would visit here. Cafe was open since 1920s but was carelessly modernized since those arcadian days. Menu offers some great cream cakes, fresh salads, pastas and vegetarian dishes. Open daily form 8am until midnight. Cafe is hard to miss, close to metro Nardni trida. Mains cost from 100CZK to 250CZK.
Cafe Milena
Staromestske nam. 22, Prague 1
Opened and driven by the society of Franz Kafka's friends, this café
is named after a friend of Franz Kafka, the translator Milena
Jesenka. Milena was one of the lovers Franz Kafka never had the
courage to propose to. You can read the daily papers, choose from a
variety of light dishes and desserts. The prices for coffee and
alcoholic beverages are fair considering the location.
