ORDER THE CITY
Five rituals, without the costume.
A Czech pub lunch
Choose one substantial plate and a drink; reserve popular rooms instead of relying on the square’s terraces.
A café breakfast
Café Savoy works as a meal with time to sit, not a five-minute pastry errand.
Fresh bread in Karlín
Let a bakery visit lead a neighborhood morning rather than traveling across town for a single photograph.
One properly served beer
Ask about the beer and pour; non-alcoholic choices make the same pub setting accessible without a drinking challenge.
