The Farm Letna
This organic restaurant has a robust, constantly evolving menu with options for everyone. If you happen to be there and see these items, order them: the Italian risotto Arborio with chicken steak, or if you’re looking for something more traditionally Czech, the chicken schnitzel with mashed potatoes and cucumber salad. This is also a great joint for breakfast.

Bio Oko
This arthouse theater screens a variety of independent films but is also a cool gathering place for people looking to socialize over drinks. With ample seating, and a laid back atmosphere, you don’t have to be a cinema buff to enjoy the facility but being a fan of classic cars helps. Inside one of the screening rooms is a vintage car you can sit in while watching a movie. OLD SCHOOL.
