Mlýnská Kavárna

Malá Strana


Pretty much the only decent place to drink in this part of Malá Strana, the 'Mill Cafe' is an artists' hangout (David Černý is a regular) linked to Kampa Island by a wooden footbridge. The discussion becomes more animated as the evening progresses, and it's also often the venue for various talks and exhibitions.
