My favourite Restaurants / Pubs
Below you will find a list of places where I like to go for lunch and dinner
This place is nothing special, but it's such an ordinary Czech restaurant and pub where you can eat for good money. So if you're after an authentic experience, head here. It's also very close to the apartment.

An inn that continues the glory of Austro-Hungarian hospitality. You'll get a pilsner on tap like you'll get here only a few other places. For your meal, have a tafelspitz, a famous delicacy of Emperor Franz Joseph.

The legendary brewer František Ondřej Poupě brewed beer for the whole of Brno at the same place. The Poupě Brewery House in the centre of Brno is now going to continue his tradition. Of course, the beer is accompanied by great food.

This place makes "just" pizza. Yet it caused a fuss on the Brno gastro scene. Why? Because this is how you make a proper Neapolitan pizza.

In this pub, beer prices go up and down depending on customer demand. So it can happen that, for example, a Pilsner beer will cost 40 crowns when you come in, but in an hour it will cost 60 crowns because the whole pub will be drinking it, or vice versa...

The closest place to my apartment but it is also one of the best. Great food, great service, great vibe. You must not miss this. Good for vegans or vegetarians too.

My favourite Bars

The name of the business literally translates to = Bar that doesn't exist. Today, however, it is the bar that makes Brno exist and despite being on the scene for several years, it still holds its level and prestige. This place is definitely not to be missed.

As the name suggests, this is a business owned by the same bunch as the Bar, which doesn't exist. So if you want to experience the best mixed drinks in Brno on your own palate, you've come to the right place. Besides, they have (of course) a great selection of whiskey and something to eat too. I mean something... the best steak tartare in Brno can be found right here on Gorky Street.

Another cool place from the folks at the Bar that doesn't exist. Unfortunately, I can't give you any more information on this establishment. The experience is so specific, it's simply indescribable. Except... their drink menu has won several prestigious competitions and has been featured in the prestigious World's Best Bars poll. I guess you understand that you have to go there, right?

The Container Picnic Box is located between two faculties in the middle of a small but nice park. Besides great coffee, they always have some goodies baked, plus they have beer and something to eat. There are also a lot of events going on during the year.

There are, in my opinion, without exaggeration, about a million cafes in Brno. So if we recommend something, it must be worth it. What I like about this place is its simplicity, elegance and cleanliness. There is also a small selection of food to go with the coffee, but it is essentially vegan.

Consejos para la ciudad

Brno is big but small at the same time
Although Brno is the second largest city in Czechia you can easily get around on foot. At least downtown and its immediate surroundings
Reserva antes de ir
Villa Tugendhat
You might have heard about famous Villa Tugendhat. You might be even considering going there. Good it is great place but I highly recommend bookig this place prior to your arrival. The sooner the better. It's pretty much booked out.
Cómo moverse
Don't be afraid of public transport
Public transport in Brno is really great. You can simply pay for each ride with a credit card directly in the vehicle. You tap on the paying machine when you get on and tap again when you get off.
