TASTE BRNO! PLACES WHERE WE LOVE TO EAT OR WHERE WE ENJOY A COFFEE WITH FRIENDS

Coffee places:

Cafe +  It is a great place if you are on a budget. There is also a book club!

Kafec - There you can meet many other foreigners and taste superb waffles. Often they are so      busy that there is no place to sit. In that case, just go down on the same street “Orlí” and find your spot at Spolek cafe.

Bavard - With a wide range of breakfast options

Skog - eems to be a bit snobby but it's worth seeing the industrial design and feel the atmosphere.

Chleba - Yes, that's it. Delicious bread which a group of international bakers produces there is absolutely delicious. Moreover, you can enjoy it with marmalade or a pate along with your morning coffee.

Cafe Era - Shows you a bit of a functionalist style. Take a coffee with you and go to explore the quiet surroundings of Černá pole (Black Field) district which is full of villas built in the same style. There is also the most famous one, Villa Tugendhat. Did you enjoy it? Visit also the Church of Blessed Maria Restituta Kafka, a striking, modern church devoted to a nun who loved God and beer. Of all the houses that grace this neighborhood, only one is a testament to surreal architecture - Kristek's House.

Reral bean - With the atmosphere of a typical hipster place situated in a renovated area of the Brno textile industry. That you would like to go there but it's too far from the city center? Ok, then visit Coffee bar Mymika on Lidiská street.

Dobrokava - It is a seasonal mobile kiosk parked on the Vegetable market - Zelný trh where you get a coffee almost for free! The only thing you have to give them in advance is a promise that you will do a good deed. E.g. support some local farmers and buy a vegetable at the market: https://www.facebook.com/trhynazelnaku/. Isn't Brno a wonderful place?

Kafe v rozkladu - offers you a sitting in a hanging chair, unusual colorful brunches from which even real eaters eat properly and drinking a coffee from old-fashioned porcelain.

In case you visit coffee places because of sweets so coffee is just an excuse, then Mlsná holka, Sorry pečeme jinak, Panksy a pancake place or Raw with love (which is a vegan place as well as Vegan sweet bar) are the sweet-shops you shouldn't overlook.

Bistros & restaurants:

Budget friendly

Poe Poe / Carmel, La Speranza, Caruso Pizza and Pasta are again some on budget options, delicious, highly recommended also if you don't have much time.

Vegan/vegetarian

Forky's is a vegan fast food with an offer that satisfies also omnivores. If you are looking for more places where your non-vegan friends can come with you even without noticing they are not eating meat, then take them to Die Kuche, Mooi bistro or Pilgrim.

Asian cuisine

Mr. Sushito, Ramen Brno, Unami simply Asian, Go Brno, or Indian Annapurna are probably the best of Asian food bistros and restaurants with delicious and original meals which do not cost you all your salary. 

Steak lovers

Suzies steak pub or K1 steak house are situated a bit far from the city center but still ready to serve you the best steaks in Brno for a reasonable price.

Czech cuisine

Stopkova restaurant is the place where to taste typical Czech food like Svíčková s knedlíky and pour an excellent Czech draft beer over it! 

Delivery

Too lazy to leave your house? No problem, order food delivery on www.damejidlo.cz/en/ or wolt.com/en/.

Bars & Pubs & Wines:

Bars

• La Gaviota is a sky bar with an amazing view of the city center. Even though it's on the main square not many people know about it. They also offer alcohol and shisha delivery. 

• Slast, 4 pokoje, Super Panda Circus or Bar který neexistuje are famous also behind the walls of Brno and many famous newspapers wrote about their famous atmosphere which is worth it to experience.

Pubs

• Pivní opice is a hidden garden place where beer lovers used to go. An alternative place could be Lokál u Caipla where they carefully treat beer and serve delicacies eaten along with it. 

• Mamut under Petrov Church is kinda old but still gold because it's one of few pubs where you can draft your own beer directly from the beer tube coming to your table.

• The Immigrant as the name suggests is preferable by many foreigners also because they find their foreign drafted beers and watch international sport matches 

• Na stojáka couldn't be missing on this list! Especially during the summer when all the visitors just grab a glass of beer and go to sit outside on kerbstones in the middle of the street. Don't be discouraged by the long queue and jump in Poslední Leč on the opposite side where it is possible to get also a great beer “to go” but not many people know about it.

Wine places

• Just wine and Klášterní vinárna serve especially wines produced in the South Moravian region.
