This little cafe, with
cream walls, bentwood chairs and arty photographs, is an unexpected setting for some
of Prague's finest tea and coffee. Choose from a wide range of quality roasted beans
from all over the world, and have them freshly ground and made into espresso, cappu-
ccino or latte (40Kč to 55Kč); the espresso is served, as it should be, with a glass of
water.

'At the Green Tea' is a
charming little olde-worlde teahouse on the way up to the castle. The menu offers
around a hundred different kinds of tea (45Kč to 80Kč a pot) from all over the world,
ranging from classic green and black teas from China and India to fruit-flavoured teas
and herbal infusions, as well as tempting cakes and tasty sandwiches.
COCCKTAIL B
AIL BAAR
BLUE LIGHT
Light is a dark and atmospheric hangout, as popular with locals as with tourists,
where you can sip a caipirinha or cranberry colada as you cast an eye over the vintage
jazz posters, records, old photographs and decades-worth of scratched graffiti that ad-
orn the walls. The background jazz is recorded rather than live, and never overpowers
your conversation. Often heaving on weekend nights.
PUUB
HOSTINEC U KOCOURA
( 257 530 107; Nerudova 2; 12, 20, 22)
'The Tomcat' is a long-established tradition-
al pub, still enjoying its reputation as a former favourite of former president Havel,
and still managing to pull in a mostly Czech crowd despite being in the heart of tour-
istville (maybe it's the ever-present pall of cigarette smoke). It has relatively inex-
pensive beer for this part of town - 34Kč for 0.5L of draught Pilsner Urquell or Bern-
ard.
