The Best Brunch in Prague
Ready to test out the best brunch spots in Prague? These are my tried-and-true spots – the brunch spots I take my friends when they come to visit. My list includes sit-down spots where you can grab a full meal. (If you’d prefer a pastry, check out this list.) Here’s my list of the best brunch spots in Prague!
1. Eska
If Czech baked goods are on your list, you simply can’t do better than Eska. In fact, Eska is probably one of my favorite restaurants in Prague, period. The bakery arm of Eska lives on a back street in Prague’s Karlin neighborhood.
The modern restaurant sits upstairs, while their bakery and coffee shop as well as their mini grocery store live downstairs. On Sundays, they have a lovely brunch in the courtyard out front – but if you’re going to go, reserve in advance!
What to expect? The basics, done well (find the menu here). The Czech breakfast is my favorite, but you simply can’t go wrong here.
2. Cafefin
Locals and tourists alike love Cafefin in Prague’s Vinohrady neighborhood, and for good reason. This brunch restaurant is part of the Mazelab Coffee family, so you know the coffee is delicious. They serve brunch all day, and I truly haven’t had a dish I disliked here. The french toast is wonderful, but the egg dishes are also delicious, too. You can’t go wrong!
3. Mezi Srnky
Mezi Srnky may or may not be the perfect brunch spot in Prague…and it may or may not be one of my favorites. This bistro has a couple different locations in Prague around the city. Serving up all-day brunch, this bistro prides itself on fresh dishes, seasonal produce and local ingredients.
Most days, they have a lovely variety of dishes, sweet treats and unique plates. It’s one of the few brunch spots in Prague that serves up vegan and veggie food, too.
4. Cafe Letka
Brunch lovers simply cannot skip the hip Cafe Letka. It’s one of my favorites in Prague, simply because it offers such a great variety of dishes on their small menu. I love it so much, I even wrote about it in my National Geographic piece!
It’s not often mentioned on brunch lists because it’s mostly a locals-only spot, but their coffee is phenomenal and the ambience is simply wonderful. Don’t skip the pastries, either. If you’re heading there on a weekend, keep in mind you may have to wait.
5. Cafe Savoy
Perhaps Prague’s most traditional brunch, Cafe Savoy is the whole package. This Viennese-style cafe offers a stunning setting for your morning coffee and breakfast; when you sit inside and enjoy the delicious food and gorgeous setting, there’s no surprise why this spot frequently ranks among the best brunch spots in Prague.
It’s hardly a gem, but it’s still worth a visit: their breakfast sets or one of their egg dishes, paired with a coffee and pastry, is the best way to start your day.
6. The Tavern
Looking for the best brunch spots in Prague that offer a more American brunch? The Tavern is one of my favorite spots in Prague (it’s on my list of the best restaurants!!), and they also have an excellent brunch, too.
You’ll find all your American favorites at The Tavern, from biscuits and gravy to chicken and waffles. Don’t skip the fried chicken sausage biscuit, which is smothered in maple syrup. It’s the closest you can get to America, and when you’re sitting outside in the summertime? Chef’s kiss!
7. Spižírna 1902
Spižírna 1902 is a classic brunch spot in Prague, serving up a great selection of coffee, pastries and brunch classics. From traditional Czech koláč to more Croque Madames, their selection of tasty treats rivals almost any Prague brunch spot’s selection. Pair your brunch with their coffee or hot chocolate. You’ll fall in love!
8. Le Caveau Kavárna
If you love a good French-style brunch, Le Caveau is the spot for you. This lovely cafe, located right on the square in Vinohrady, has everything you need for a great Prague brunch – and during the summer, they have plenty of outdoor seating, too.
What should you get? I love the Croque Madame or the Eggs Florentine, but honestly, you simply cannot go wrong here.
Le Caveau has phenomenal bread and pastries, too, so if you’re more of a grab-and-go person, stop by the bakery on Krymska and pick something up to go.
9. Etapa
Located in Prague’s trendy Karlin neighborhood, Etapa remains one of my all-time favorite brunch and lunch spots in Prague. This cafe-style spot offers up a small, curated menu of brunch specials and lunch meals, with a divine selection of pastries. The food is fresh and local, the meals thoughtful, the atmosphere lovely and casual. You can’t skip it.
10. Kavarna Tvoje Mama
Last but certainly not least, one of my favorites: Kavarna Tvoje Mama. This cafe isn’t exactly a bakery, but this coffee shop is home to some of the best baked treats in Prague and certainly one of the best brunches in Prague. This little coffee spot in Prague’s Vršovice neighborhood hosts locals and expats like every weekend for a delicious brunch.
On a typical weekend, they may sell out of their most popular pastries – but never fear, there’s usually plenty to go around. Try their buchta buns, kolache, or filled donuts, but don’t leave without trying their coffee and their brunch.
