| EBG Rating: | 8.9/10 |
| Choice/ Quality of Drinks | ❤️❤️❤️❤️ Pilsner Urquell tapped by award-winning crew and an old-school selection of central European liqueurs. |
| Style/ Décor | ❤️❤️❤️❤️ Old-school Pivnice on a corner. Interior of browns and golds. Traditional but well-maintained. Simple small main room dominated by a boxy bar area. Space for leaning at the bar and two tables opposite for perching, with the stamgasts on the right. More space in the backroom. |
| Atmosphere/ Character | ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️ In moments a place you never want to leave, that sucks you in and sucks you dry of your money in the process. Every penny is worth it. A great Pivnice that benefits from its neighbourhood setting with a cast of locals and far enough from the city centre to ensure the only tourists that visit tend to be respectful curious ones. Stays open reasonably late and a final Pilsner is never going to be far from your thoughts. Busy and bustling, it can fill up quick leaving you with standing room at the bar or a seat around the corner. |
| Amenities/ Events | ❤️❤️❤️ Limited outdoor seating, pub snacks + roast pork knee |
| Value For Money | ❤️❤️ Expensive for the area |
| Description | Adored neighbourhood pub with a layout and dynamic every bit akin to classic Prague pubs like U Hrocha. Tapster and server duo operated from a small old bar, in a main room which has space for seating and leaning, old brown wooden tables and one of course reserved for their core patrons, the stamgasty. Backroom is still pretty good, though try to get a seat in the main room to enjoy the comings and goings. Renowned for human head-sized pork joints (not an understatement) as well as the Pilsner Urquell which they are so famous for they appear on national adverts. Frequently very busy, so have a backup venue in the area ready in case there’s no space. Zastavka works well. A must in Brno. A truly wonderful pub deserving of cult status. (added October 2021) |
