This cafe and tea house is a great place to work on your laptop, catch up with friends over coffee, or practice your piano skills (there is an upright piano in the main room and many of the regulars are quite skilled musicians, so the intermittent live music is an occasional treat). This was a proto-hipster, quirky, artsy place back in the late 1990s and has remained so to this day. The menu contains charming reprinted excerpts of old magazines and menus and a fair amount of wordplay in the Czech portion.
Food offerings are quirky and relatively limited--some lovely pastries and baked good, and some imaginatively filled "tousty" (pressed toast sandwiches). There is a large selection of coffees, teas, non-caffeinated decocted beverages, juices, lemonades, etc. Staff are friendly. You pay at the cashier near the front door. In the summer months, there is a patio in back. read more
