It’s the perfect way to kick off the summer.” Beyond the beers, Permanent Pragovka offers an experience that goes far beyond your average taproom.

Looking for a summer escape filled with colour, scent, and calm? Across Czechia, lavender farms and herb gardens are opening their gates to visitors, offering a different kind of seasonal experience—one scented with fresh blooms, homemade products, and peaceful countryside views. You don’t need to go to Provence to be surrounded by lavender. Several farms in the Czech Republic now cultivate the purple flower, known for its calming properties and strong fragrance. During peak bloom, the fields are not only a sight to see but a sensory experience—especially when paired with lavender-flavoured treats. One of the best-known stops is Lavender Valley in Chodouň, near Beroun. Here, visitors can explore the fields, try wellness treatments using lavender oils, and enjoy refreshments like lavender lemonade and ice cream. Nearby, you can also visit the Křivoklát Castle or take a tour of the Rückl glass factory, both easy detours from the farm. Further south, in South Moravia’s wine region, the Lavandia Farm near Starovičky opens for the season with its own café and lavender products. The farm sits near the Lednice-Valtice landscape area, making it a scenic addition to any trip to the region. In Central Moravia, Bezděkov Lavender Farm offers something more...

Right across from Prague’s main train station on Opletalova Street, Monkey Bar is taking diners on a global tour — without leaving their seat. The new menu, designed by chef Jakub Vyškovský, offers a variety of small plates inspired by cuisines from around the world. It’s a playful approach that fits the bar’s jungle-themed interior and laid-back atmosphere. Vyškovský, who has cooked in Michelin-starred kitchens across Europe, says what he values most is creative freedom. “I like that The Monkey Bar isn’t trying to copy anyone else,” he explains. “We want to surprise people — in a good way.” That goal shows up on the menu, which is built around tapas-style portions. On a recent visit, the lobster ravioli with foie gras sauce, butter cabbage, and truffle stood out — a rich, well-balanced dish with strong earthy tones that didn’t overpower the seafood. The nigiri with foie gras, tuna, and watermelon tataki was more adventurous. “I wasn’t sure at first, but it actually worked,” one diner at a nearby table said. “It’s definitely not something you see often in Prague.” We also liked the burnt cauliflower with chimichurri, which had a spicy kick and a great char. The shrimp tacos...
Craving fresh strawberries for dumplings, jam, or homemade cakes? Good news: the 2025 strawberry season has officially started in the Czech Republic, and many farms are already opening their fields to the public for self-picking. Due to an unusually cold May followed by drought conditions, the season is off to a slower start this year. Some farms have already opened their gates, while others are waiting for the berries to fully ripen in early June. Either way, now is the time to grab a basket and head out. Self-picking strawberries might take more effort than buying them in the store, but the reward is worth it: lower prices, fresher fruit, and unbeatable flavor. Here’s a regional breakdown of where you can go strawberry picking and what you can expect to pay: Prague Kunratice: Picking begins between June 5–10, priced at approx. 100 CZK/kg Central Bohemian Region Sedlčánky Strawberry Farm: Opens May 23, approx. 79 CZK/kg Bříství Orchards: Opens May 24, approx. 99 CZK/kg Starokolínské Strawberries: Opens May 24, approx. 80 CZK/kg Pardubice Region Drahoš Farm: Opens June 10 Hradec Králové Region Lhota pod Libčany Agrodružstvo: Expected to open around late May to early June Ústí Region Brozany Strawberry Farm: Opens...
Looking for a place to cool off in Prague without leaving the city? Hostivař Dam in Prague 15 is one of the capital’s largest natural swimming areas — and a popular summer spot for locals seeking a break from crowded pools or long drives out of town. Surrounded by greenery and accessible by tram, car, or bike, the dam offers sandy and grassy beaches, clear water, and wooden piers suitable for sunbathing or swimming. The gentle water entry makes it a safe choice for families with small children. A Family-Friendly Option Hostivařská Dam has developed a strong reputation for being kid-friendly. Alongside a dedicated children’s zone with trampolines and slides, visitors will find creative weekend workshops and animation programs. A babysitting service is also available during the high season, giving parents the option to relax nearby or enjoy a coffee at the beach cafés. Activities on and off the Water For those interested in sport, the dam offers much more than swimming. Visitors can rent paddleboards or water bikes, use the wakeboarding lift with new obstacles, or take part in games on professional beach volleyball courts. Other features include slacklines, ping-pong tables, and access to nearby cycling and jogging trails...
On May 31, Manifesto Market in Anděl will open the taps on its latest project: a new, brand-free beer bar devoted entirely to celebrating Czech brewing culture. Developed by the team behind SOOT Bar and Berlin’s award-winning Himitsu Speakeasy, the concept skips the branding — offering no official name — and instead focuses on top-quality beer, both classic and craft. The new venue will feature up to 12 beers on tap, including Czech mainstays like Pilsner Urquell, Budvar 33, and Únětická 12° nefiltrovaná, alongside rotating craft selections from breweries like Zichovec, Matuška, Antoš, and long-time Manifesto partners such as Vinohradský pivovar. “There’s a shift happening,” says Martin Barry, founder and CEO of Manifesto. “Czechs may be drinking less mass-produced beer, but there’s a growing appetite for craft brews. Beer has always been one of our top-sellers — now we’re giving it the attention it deserves.” The beer list won’t be the only draw. The space will include a curated selection of over 30 bottled and canned beers from across the country, and a bi-monthly rotation of limited-edition craft beers, ensuring there’s always something new to taste. Daniel Prokeš, formerly of Almanac X Alcron and Andaz Prague, will manage the bar....
It’s that time again. Head to the fields and pick your own strawberries in Prague and around Czechia. Every year, the Czech Ministry of Agriculture encourages people to choose Czech berries as they are much tastier and healthier than imported ones. “Our strawberries are riper, juicier and more delicious. This is due to the fact that foreign producers deliberately grow hard varieties for export so that they can endure long transports,” the ministry explains. Many Czech farmers traditionally offer their clients to come to their own fields and pick their own strawberries. In this case, they will cost almost half as much as in a normal shop. This service is called samosběr and is in great demand. It is not only about economic gain: for many nature lovers, the picking process is a pleasure in itself. Here you can also find a special website with a list of farms that offer this service. You can select the region where you live and a list of farms appears. By clicking on the name of the farm, you will find all the information you need (price, address, opening hours, etc.). Self-harvesting dates are weather-dependent and often change at the last minute....
Rekola has officially reintroduced shared e-bikes to the streets of Prague, marking its return to electric micromobility after a six-year absence. The company’s signature apricot-colored e-bikes are now available to the public, complementing its fleet of classic pink bicycles already spread across the capital. The rollout begins with 50 e-bikes capable of reaching speeds up to 25 km/h, with plans to expand the fleet to just under 100. Rekola currently operates around 1,000 classic bikes in Prague. The reintroduction comes with clear goals: to make urban mobility more accessible, provide a cheaper alternative to services like Lime and Bolt, and expand availability to hilly neighborhoods where traditional bikes are less practical. Rekola’s pricing strategy undercuts the competition: Rekola: 10 CZK to unlock + 5 CZK/min Lime: 15 CZK to unlock + 5.9 CZK/min Bolt: 7 CZK to unlock + 7 CZK/min A 10-minute ride on an e-Rekola costs 60 CZK, while the same trip with Lime would be 74 CZK and Bolt charges 77 CZK. This isn’t Rekola’s first foray into electric bikes. In 2019, it briefly deployed a fleet of 70 e-bikes in Prague, supported by Inoga and entrepreneur Ondřej Fritz. Those bikes, with 250W motors and a top...
