Pivni Galerie

Went here on our way home from Prague. It was closed... so we went to the great, modern restaurant further down the street (Pier 22, I think). Good food, friendly service, nice prices... well... Pivni Galerie opened in the meantime. Good parking facilities though you have to pay (a limited amount). Nice selection inside - lots of hard-to-get Czech beers as well as a decent Belgian selection (even some I’ve haven’t had). Bought home a few plastic bags. Fair prices. Service was more or less mute as they probably wondered what I was doing with my 4-5 sheets of paper inked up with lines and beer names.

Visited in 2006 to get bottles. Tried to visit 2008, but they were closed the two days we were able to get there. Nice selection of beers.

Awesome selction of Czech bottles, and a quick look at the international selection it also looked pretty decent. The backroom with two taps of quality beers looked like there were quite a few locals visiting. It was just around the corner from my hotel, but it’s 200 metres from a tram stop and 2 kilometres from the Holesovice metro.

This beer shop is a bit out of the way, but it was worth the long work. Quit nice selection of beers I must say, bought about 12 different beers. Service was friendly and very helpful, but did not understand much English. Seemed like there was a bar in the back of the shop, but I did not go back there. Defiantly the shop to go to when in Prague!

Great place. Just about every Czech beer which is bottled and distributed is available but few surprises really. Czech beer is way better on tap anyway. But around the corner is a really quiet, dark little bar with a rotating selection of two hard-to-find beers. Library-style is right, there was really a really quiet, reserved kind of vibe which is fairly rare for the CR. When we visited the beers on tap were Žatec Nefiltrovaný and Krakonoš 12°, both of which were fantastic and can be found nowhere else in Prague. Essential.

Nice and quiet, friendly(yet bit weird) staff. Many many different Czech beers.

Small place, but full of gems. Very wide selection of rare brews from lesser known and smaller Czech breweries. Reasonable prices and friendly staff. Always two microbrews on tap, served in a little room next to the shop. Nothing much to eat except some snacks and utopenci (Czech pickled sausages). This place really is esential!

A small place - with a map, easy to find. Big bottle selection. 2 beer-taps, a light & a dark. You can drink the bottled beers inside. Nice quiet place, friendly staff. They are laughing at our ratebeer printouts. Decorations: hop in the lamps. Bags of snack.

Great shop/pub a bit away from the central blocks in Prague. Quite easy to find, using metro and tram from Muzeum-station. Wondeful selection of czech beers, and with nice staff trying their best to explain without knowing that much english. Unfortunately, the nice pub was very crowded when I visite, so I brought my beers to the hotel.

After walking way too far with my backpack, looking for the hostel... this was a welcome sight. Great little place, perhaps a little smokey... but had two great beers on tap and a vast selection of bottles (almost all Czech). The owner was drinking with his friends and seemed to have enlisted the help of his son to do all the beer serving, which was fine as he knew his stuff. The same guy served me every time I went there (5 times, in 2 trips to Prague). Decent selection of bottles and glasses to take away too.
