Knedlín

📍Place: located not too far from the Kafka statue, it's bigger than it looks with more seating upstairs. They are making everything on the the spot, you can watch it how they are kneading the dough. 🍛 Food: they have many different flavours, lots of savoury and sweet, everyone can find something which meets their taste. To me the strawberry one was better than the pork & cabbage. These balls are quite small, so you might wanna order 2-3 if this is your main meal. 👩🏻‍🍳 Service: it's over the counter, everything happens at high speed, like a fast food restaurant, meeting the expectations.

I decided to try Knedlin after seeing so many videos about it on social media, but unfortunately I was quite disappointed. I ordered the raspberry & white chocolate dumpling, which was okay, and the garlic & cheese one, which was far too salty. What really ruined the experience was the staff – they were very rude. When I wanted to pay in Czech crowns, they didn’t have change and clearly expected me to just leave the rest of the money, which was not a small amount. I would never come back here – there are so many better places to eat in Prague where the staff is truly friendly and the food absolutely delicious.

I stopped by for brunch around 11 am. The place wasn't crowded, and there were plenty of open seats. The restaurant is quite small, so space is a bit tight. It was clean and cozy with 90s music playing in the background, which gave it a relaxed atmosphere. It's a self-service setup. You get your dumplings on a tray and grab your own cutlery and napkins. I actually liked that casual vibe, but can't imagine how it works out when it gets crowded. I tried three different dumplings. They were served warm, although one was a little too cold. • The feta cheese with wild garlic was probably the highlight. It had a nice crunch and a bold combination of flavors, though it was a bit too salty. • The chicken souvlaki dumpling didn’t win me over. The filling was watery and not warm enough. The meat was seasoned well, but the overall flavor felt average. • For dessert, I had the pistachio dumpling. I didn’t love it, though I’m not a fan of sweet dumplings to begin with. The filling was bland and the texture too runny for my taste. Even with a few letdowns, I genuinely enjoyed my time there. The atmosphere was pleasant, the self-service setup worked well, and the prices were fair. I’d come back and try different flavors next time.

Wanted an afternoon snack so got a plum dumpling here for 59Kc which feels like a decent price. Lots of different dumplings to choose from including savory ones and they're already made so not made to order but it was still served hot which is nice. They do make them in house freshly too. Thought the flavor was not bad! Fruity and not super sweet. The filling was a bit too saucy for me and I missed both poppy seeds and melted butter on top but different doesn't automatically mean bad. Overall it was quite nice and I'd try other flavors.

Knedlin in Prague is such a fun and unique place to try traditional dumplings with a modern twist. The overall experience was good, though I wish the dumplings were served warmer and had a bit more crunch, as mine were slightly cold and mushy. Despite that, the flavors were creative and enjoyable, and it’s definitely a spot worth visiting. The highlight for me was the white chocolate raspberry dumpling sweet, rich, and absolutely delicious. If you’re in Prague and want to try something different, Knedlin is a must-visit.

Great concept - a cafe centred entirely on the traditional Czech filled potato dumplings. They come in all colors of the rainbow and feature sweet and savoury fillings ranging from pistachio cream to duck and saurekraut. Not all filings are born equal, but the cheese-wild garlic and raspberry-white chocolate are definitely recommended. Overall, a nice experience for those seeking a fun and unusual breakfast/lunch option in Prague.

Good place and food. I ordered a cappuccino and I put some of the sweetener that they have right in front of the register and the employee screamed and ask me what I was doing. Apparently he didn't know what it was. They should probably know what they put there.

These dumplings were actually so good. Walking by we were curious, so we sampled a few sweet ones - the dark chocolate and the white chocolate raspberry. Both oozed with warm goodness, and the chewy outside made for an indulgent snack.
