U Mansfelda

Plzeň


Sure, it's a pub – remember you're in Plzeň now – but it's also more refined and has more interesting food than many other places. Try Czech cuisine such as wild boar guláš (spicy meat and potato soup). Downstairs from the beer-fuelled terrace is a more relaxed vinárna (wine bar).
