I read so much about this place that we had to give it a try. I knew exactly where it was, but still walked past it the first time. At 9:00pm on a Friday, we waited 15 minutes outside and probably another 25 inside before being led upstairs. We were in a group of five which was the largest I saw. The place is really set up for couples or groups of three. The staff takes you up once there are seats available and takes your drink order at that time. The place is very theatrical...what I imagine a Kabuki Theater would look like, only with a bar instead of a stage. Staff wear uniforms that look like they are members from My Chemical Romance's Black Parade days. Drinks are crazy weird. My first drink was described as Gin and Tonic based, but came in a flower pot with a stem of cotton candy. Not cheap....215 czk makes that first drink about ten times a typical beer in the city. Music is clubby techno repetitive thumping sounds.
So...why four stars instead of something lower: The staff were amazing. Despite my group's size and our mid-life crises ages, staff was smiling, fun, knowledgeable, English willing, and just pretty cool. For such an intimidating place, it is amazingly accommodating. I ordered my second drink - one that came with a Greek yogurt topping (smelled strange, but tasted awesome) and we called it a night. Glad I experienced the place but not sure I would go back. Really too expensive for a night out in Brno. Give it a try if you like theatrics, crazy drinks and something completely unique. read more
