Restaurants in Bohemia

A
Rhodos
More 'Alan the Very Good' than Alexander the Great, this spot serves up Greek fare in leafy surroundings with a sunny skylight. The 'assemble yourself' gyros with pita bread is good value and we recommend you finish with a slice of naughtily sweet baklava.

Dominik Jazz Rock Café
Get lost in the nooks and crannies of this vast student hangout, or take on Plzeň's best at pool or foosball (table soccer). There are cool beats all day, every day, and good-value salads and sandwiches at lunchtime. After dark it gets enjoyably raucous.

Restaurant Beran
Follow the cast-iron goat's head above the door, into the eclectic interior with a two-metre tall model of the leaning tower of Pisa. Beran is very popular with locals who jam-pack this cellar bar/restaurant for Czech, Italian and Mexican food.

Krčma v Šatlavské
Nirvana for meat-lovers is this barbecue cellar serving sizzling platters in a medieval labyrinth illuminated by candles and the flickering flames of open grills. Wash it all down with wine served in earthenware goblets. Book ahead.

Pizza/Grill
Just maybe where the phrase 'hole-in-the-wall' came from, pizza/grill fits a wood-fired oven, a vintage espresso machine, and seating for five diners into a tiny space. Grab takeaway pivo 'n' pizza and dine al fresco.

Laibon
Candles and vaulted ceilings create a nicely 'boho' ambience in Bohemia's best vegetarian teahouse. Start with Middle Eastern and Indian flavours, and finish with fluffy blueberry dumplings.

U Tři Sedláku
Locals celebrate that nothing much has changed at U Tři Sedláku since it opened in 1897. Tasty meaty dishes go with the Pilsner Urquell constantly being shuffled to busy tables.

Indická (Gateway of India)
From Chennai to České comes respite for travellers wanting something different. Request spicy because they're used to dealing with timid Czech palates.

Diana Restaurant
The garden Diana Restaurant sits at the base of the hilltop viewing tower near Teplá. The view, needless to say, is good enough to eat.
