Kolkovna Celnice is a high quality, traditional Czech pub style restaurant. It is set on a pleasant square near Municipal House, just a few minutes walk from both the Old Town Square and Wenceslas Square.

The interior is warmly decorated, blending contemporary colours with photos and memorabilia depicting the history of beer brewing in Czechia.

Kolkovna Celnice serves good honest Czech food and some of the freshest Pilsner Urquell beer in Prague. The standard of cuisine is high, the portions are large, and the dishes are well presented. Both food and drink is also very reasonably priced.

The typical Czech fare ranges from goulash, wild boar and half a roast duck, to leg of goose and spicy pork ribs.

Main courses are served with traditional side dishes like dumplings and red or white cabbage, or you can choose the more modern mashed potatoes or French fries.

The menu also includes international dishes such as lamb shank, XXL beef burgers, beef steaks, chicken and salmon dishes, various pasta dishes and salads.

Kolkovna Celnice is one of only a handful of places in the city to sell tank Pilsner Urquell beer; it is delivered from the brewery unpasteurised in huge temperature controlled airtight tanks, to ensure the freshest Czech beer around. The taste is superb.

There are also kegged beers on tap, both light and dark, as well as wines, Champagne, cocktails and soft drinks.

In the summer, Kolkovna opens a terrace outside looking over Republic Square; a pleasant area to while a way a few hours on a warm evening.

Kolkovna usually has a buzzing atmosphere because it is popular with local Czechs, so reservations are highly recommended. It may be pub style, but this is a restaurant, and the locals book in advance for this type of place in Prague.

For traditional Czech fare with high modern standards in the centre of Prague, Kolkovna Celnice excels.
