Baráčnická rychta

Malá Strana


An oasis of wood-panelled Czech-ness in a quiet part of Malá Strana, the proudly traditional rychta (tavern) serves the most classic of Bohemian fare (wild boar, goulash, duck and strudel), washed along with an obscure, locally microbrewed beer called Malastrana Original Pils. The hard wooden benches, parquet floors and hunting trophies take you back to the Prague of yesteryear.
