Based in one of Mala Strana’s historic buildings with typical curved ceilings and warren of rooms decorated with retro signage and artwork for sale (hence gallery).

Value For Money❤️❤️❤️
Not unreasonable for Mala Strana district, but possibly above average for Prague in general.
DescriptionThis bar and art gallery comes alive in the evenings with a vibrant younger crowd. It’s not a see-and-be-seen kind of place, more an informal hangout adorned with work from local artists. Under the classic intimate curved ceilings you can enjoy cocktails, play piano, sit in a corner and socialise. While it doesn’t hit all the right notes, and can be at times overly loud with its poor acoustics, there’s plenty to like about it too. For a step away from the traditional Pivnice, NAPA is well worth a shout for a late evening drink in this district of the city. (Added August 2023)
