Expats.cz Bar Guide

Cocktails in Prague have come a long way since the dark days when ordering a martini would get you a glass of lukewarm Cinzano. These days a multitude of upscale cocktail bars – many of them associated with luxury hotels – have established themselves in the city center while further afoot venues from Letná to Žižkov recognize that a menu of signature craft cocktails are a must.

The city’s flourishing cocktail scene now boasts a diverse array of stylish bars, low-key speakeasies and innovative mixology, with skilled bartenders stirring up craft drinks using top-shelf spirits and locally-sourced ingredients. Czech liqueurs and spirits have flourished in recent years bringing a twist of regional flair to the scene.

With the rise of the sober-curious movement in Czechia and the general trend toward imbibing low-alcohol cocktails, many bartenders are also embracing a less-is-more mantra (less alcohol, more quality garnishes and mixers) as moderation makes a big splash.
