Gastronomy

Built inside a former factory, this cafe and creative space is the meeting point for creative minds. As a multifunctional space, it hosts a wide variety of events and caters to a diverse range of clients. The rotating lunch menu is influenced by a variety of cuisines and comes with vegan options. Take a look around the walls; you might see a space or two where a crumbled wall was fixed with glass and pot plants, a variation of the Japanese art of kintsugi, where cracks in pottery are sealed with gold. The back alley hosts a distillery, barbershop, and clothing boutique.

Perfect for that group of friends who can’t decide where to eat. Manifesto is centrally located in Prague’s Anděl district and features an outdoor space with 18 restaurants and bars, offering food and drinks from Latin America, Asia, Europe, and North America, all circled around a central pool. Aside from drinks, food, desserts, and tasting menus (including vegan and vegetarian options), guests can host events like birthday parties at the space. The events program includes DJs, festivals, dance classes, and holiday celebrations.

The concept behind Kro Vršovice, founded and co-owned by chef Vojta Václavík, is everyday food elevated with fine-dining preparation skills. Václavík drew on the haute cuisine techniques he developed in upscale restaurants in the Czech Republic and Norway and applied them to simpler concepts, with satisfying results. The cooks at the bistro are constantly experimenting with ways to reduce waste while delighting their clientele, and much of what you see on the menu is made from scratch in the kitchen. The bistro has built longstanding relationships with trusted suppliers, mostly local ones, and as much fruit and veg as possible comes from the farmer’s market nearby, at Jiřího z Poděbrad.
