I am honestly thrilled that we find more and more great places in Prague that are not only worth visiting, but where you just want to return. The service that I have recently experienced and it makes me really happy, but also the quality and serving of all the magic that then lands on our plate. I have therefore decided to write a list of businesses that I enjoy and are worth stopping by. You can find all the places here: Prague coffee guide
Matilda
Matilda is a restaurant that is both spacious and cozy. I’m honestly not usually a fan of Italian restaurants, as I’ve often been disappointed by them in the past. I don’t like over-roasted Italian coffee, and I find that many Italian restaurants serve strange flavor combinations that I don’t enjoy.
At Matilda, I decided to try a few different items. I ordered a pistachio Maritozzo, which is a sweet bun filled with cream, then i got fresh cake with lemon icing and a cup of coffee. I was pleasantly surprised by the delicate taste of the coffee, and I was also very impressed by the beautiful interior of the restaurant. The warm lighting created a cozy atmosphere, and the furniture and overall design of the restaurant were simple but charming. I will definitely be back very soon.
Solo Bakery
They say that this is a piece of Copenhagen in Prague and I must say that if I ever really miss a good cardamom bun or a plate with delicious cheese, pastries and whipped butter, I don’t have to get on a plane right away. The food at Solo bakery is probably the closest to the one’s in Copenhagen. In terms of taste it is the best that I have found in our country so far.
On the menu you will find the Danish roastery La Cabra, which is one of the most famous in Denmark, and also Semla, which comes from Sweden, but has spread to other Northern countries as well, and I am always very happy when I discover it in one of the Prague cafes.
P.S. I love it when you enter a cafe and the smell of cardamom hits you!
Bju kitchen
I really enjoy a bistro with an open kitchen full of the most colorful ingredients. Watching how the individual ingredients change under the chef’s hands into a colorful plate that will brighten someone’s day is simply a joy. Not only does the food look great, but all the flavors are fine-tuned to the last detail and I am always pleasantly surprised by something on the plate. The specialty of Bju kitchen is their iconic ice cream with olive oil and pistachios.
*The only downside for me is the coffee – but that’s probably up to everyone’s preferences.
Šodó
Who wouldn’t love small, fluffy buns covered in a light sweet cream? This is exactly what they serve at Šodó in Dejvice, and in addition to the cream, you’ll also find an excellent jam under the buns. This little dish is our typical in Czech republic. The interior of the cafe is complemented by traditional lamps from the Danish studio &Tradition, and in the middle of the small space you will find a large table where you sit together with other people. There is little space inside the cafe, so it is possible that you will have to stand in line for your place.
Kro coffee
Delicious pastries and great coffee are guaranteed! Kro coffee is one of my most favorite cafes/bakeries in Prague. Sometimes it’s simply better to prefer simplicity and classic pastries with good cup of coffee, instead of a complicated menu.
