This subterranean, smoky beer-and-
darts den is not to everyone's taste; nevertheless it represents an acceptable late-hours,
last-drink venue and the absolute antithesis of the posh, upscale hub-bub at nearby

(Podplukovníka Sochora 20, Holešovice; 1, 5, 8, 12, 14, 15, 17, 25, 26)
A relative rarity these
days so close to the centre: a fully unreconstructed Czech pub and all that entails, in-
cluding cantankerous old locals, an occasional hygiene issue with the glassware, lay-
ers of smoke, and toilets that will have to be buried in a nuclear landfill someday. Yet
it has a certain retrograde charm. Not for the faint-hearted.

terrace where you can order beer-by-the-glass and decent pizza. From the tram stop it
is a five- or 10-minute walk south.

This subterranean space under a corner house near Letenské náměstí is
easily the friendliest bar this side of the Vltava River. This is especially true for Eng-
lish speakers, as Fraktal serves as a kind of unofficial expat watering hole. There's
also good bar fare such as burgers. The only drawback is the early closing time (last
orders 11.30pm).
