Lokál Dlouhááá

A great spot to enjoy authentic Czech food in a relaxed and lively atmosphere. The place has a casual, welcoming vibe perfect for unwinding with friends over some cold, freshly tapped beer. The food is hearty, flavorful, and true to traditional Czech recipes, with generous portions and good value. Whether you’re popping in for a quick bite or spending the evening chilling with drinks.The service is fast and friendly, and the buzzing crowd adds to the charm.

I came just for drinks and had a great experience! The beer was excellent — I tried the dark one, traditional and full of flavor. The bar was quite busy, but the atmosphere was lively and welcoming, with a mix of young people and adults. The service wasn’t the friendliest, but from what I’ve seen, that seems to be common in Prague.

Our first meal in Prague. We wanted something traditional, simple and tasty and they delivered. For a shared starter we had the fried edam with boiled potatoes. My goodness, I think the most flavourful boiled potatoes I’ve ever had. I didn’t need to add any salt or pepper. For mains, We had the Beef stew with bacon bits in the gravy. It was rich in flavour. Bread dumplings were a first and enjoyed the stodginess with the gravy. Friendly quick service and they offered to keep refreshing the sauce and dumplings if we wished. I tried my first Pilsner, and had another. After that and an early flight, I needed a nap. Interior is very much a modern beer hall with minimal decor. Would recommend and would return.

We loved our experience here. The atmosphere is very welcoming and cozy, the staff are professional and attentive, and the food is authentic and delicious! We ordered the beef noodle soup + marinated Camembert cheese for starters. I wasn't impressed with the cheese (I thought it would be served warm, but it's cold), but the soup was great. Especially recommended for cold winter days. For the main course, we ordered the duck, and it was very well cooked. It was juicy and flavorful, the cabbage was not too sour, and the potato and bread dumplings were also decent. As dessert, we had the caramel profiterole, it was very fresh and not too sweet. Great experience in general, thank you Lokál Dlouhááá

Absolutely loved the food here. Had to wait around 10 mins to get a table but it was totally worth it and the service was very accommodating. The atmosphere was very special and the food was very authentic. We had the goulash and the chicken schnitzel and they were both fantastic. Also tried the cherry cider and definitely recommend it if you need something else other than beer

Impressed with this restaurant! Very unique experience for someone who visited Prague the first time. Love the beers and also all the food options they have. I love their interior look and feel ❤️

A good place to hangout and have a drink but not to have lunch/dinner. Food portions were small for the price. Although we did love the ttipe soup! Reservations not required but recommended.

Walked around looking for a place for lunch and this restaurant called out to us, we had a little look at the menu outside and decided to try it. One of the biggest restaurants I have ever been in. However the service was absolutely phenomenal. Out waitress let us know about what would be good and we ordered the pumpkin soup and goulash. Incredibly delicious, very filling. I will definitely be recommending this restaurant to others. Have the goulash!!!! With a beer and you won’t regret it. Also very good service, the wait staff all speak some English which is much appreciated. Thank you!!

This was definitely a highlight of our trip in Prague. It was really busy when we went in so the first thing we did is put our name in the list. We thought it would be a long wait, but we were seated in about 10 minutes. While we waited we had a beer at the bar. It was crowded, and loud, however, it was still a really cool vibe. Lots of locals were there and tourists. A great mix. Service was also top notch. The food was excellent. I highly recommend this place. We had Prague Ham with creamy horseradish, Chicken Soup with noodles, marinated mushrooms and the ribs marinated in beer. Yummy! PS. You might to share a table

Good beer but the food sucks Got the following: Beef in tomato sauce: 2 stars, the beef was tender enough, but the pasta was not a good vehicle to eat it, and was clearly made separately from the sauce which was poured on after. The pasta was wet and runny Breaded pork cutlet: 2 stars, very dry. At least the potato salad underneath was good Won't be back. Not worth the wait unless you are there just for the beer

The first attempt we made at visiting Lokál was a failure. We did not have a reservation and the wait was well over 45 minutes. We attempted to make a reservation for the following week, but all times after 5PM were booked. This place is popular and busy. After eating here, I understand why. We finally came in during the middle of the week and waited a short 15 minutes to be seated. If you time it right, you can eat here without a reservation. Staff were very friendly and attentive. The barmen were quick and friendly. Our server was also very attentive. As you wait for a table, you can grab a drink and grab a waiting table or tall table. I think a wait for the food is well worth it. The food is nice. It was like having a home cooked meal. The food felt fresh and well made. Prices are not particularly high, but depending on what you order you may need to order another dish. Alternatively, you can grab a couple of dishes and go grab a treat at the old town dessert stalls a short walk away. Lastly, the bathroom here is kinda weird. It was clean, but I was surprised at the naked ladies on the wall. It felt like a bathroom at a bar or club rather than a nice restaurant.

Great authentic Czech food and beer for good prices in Old Town. Highly recommend trying it.

I loved my visit. As a solo traveler I am always on the prowl for a lively, buzzy spot so this was perfect. The waitress was so helpful and the nonalcoholic beer on tap was brilliant. Yes a thousand times to the fried Edam cheese!!

My friend and I decided to dine here for dinner without reservations. We put our names on a waitlist. Fortunately not much of a wait and we grabbed a table after maybe 10 mins. We both decided to order the Spicy roast beef with red pepper, gravy sauce, and bread dumplings. It was only $219,00 czk ($13.09 cad) and they refill bread dumplings as much as you want complimentary if you ask. Definitely recommend this dish! I also wanted to try their beef tartar $325,00 czk ($19.38 cad) which was interesting. It was very garlic heavy and seasoned differently than what I'm used to in Canada. Almost leaning toward a tomato taste? My friend liked it but I wasn't as much of a fan so I probably wouldn't reorder it. Overall, it was a nice very affordable spot that felt very no frills and local. I would recommend trying as it's good value for money.

A definite must when visiting Prague. It gets very busy, as many of the locals eat here too. Walking in it was quite deceiving ... you see a small room, but don't let that fool you, as large halls continue further down into many rooms. Seating is large shared tables, and without a reservation, we were able to squeeze in at a table for an hour and a half which was perfect. They serve traditional Czech food and Michael, our server, was excellent and helped us select our meals and drinks, being our first time here. We ordered: Beef goulash with bread and potato dumplings - hearty stew, with tender chunks of beef and dumplings cooked to perfection. Braised pork with carrots and buttered potatoes- tender chunks of pork with hearty carrots and potatoes. Lovely home cooked soup/stews. Perfect amount of food . The kozel beer and hard cider were awesome. Can't complain - excellent service, delicious hearty food, and all were very reasonably priced. When tipping make sure to tell your server how much before you receive the bill.

This restaurant was recommended by our tour guide and was also in Rick Steves' tour book. There are a few locations but we went to the one closest to old town and I believe the original. They suggest a reservation but we luckily got a table in this long cavernous hall for a late weekday lunch. I would heed the reservation recommendation. The menu contained all of the typical Czech specialties. My wife once again got the deep fried cheese with boiled potatoes. I had the cevapi which is minced meat and spices formed into sausage form and served with boiled potatoes. We had beers of course. We did try the Czech dessert pastry which was just OK and if not for the mound of whipped cream would have been very dry. The waitress was very helpful and friendly and obviously used to dealing with English speaking tourists. The prices were reasonable.

As the name suggests, Lokál does in fact serve local Czech food and is a bit of a local chain in the area. It's kind of an interesting environment (which I will get into later), but the food is decent. Food: I ordered the Pork Cutlet Schnitzel (299 CZK), which was a huge piece of fried pork cutlet along with some boiled (I think) potatoes. The pork was nicely crispy on the outside while still tender on the inside. It was certainly a good portion size of meat for the price. I wasn't a huge fan of the potatoes though, as I thought they tasted a bit plain and dry. They did offer free unlimited potatoes though in case you do happen to like them. So while the pork was good, I just felt like the plate was a little too simple and was missing a little something else to take it to the next level. Environment: It's an interesting space, as it is like a very long hallway inside with minimal decor anywhere. I don't know if that's the kind of minimalist vibe they're going for, but especially with the high ceilings, the place just felt a bit empty and I think could have benefited from some decoration to highlight the traditional Czech nature of the restaurant. This is a popular place, so if you come at peak hours, you might have to wait a bit for a table. That being said, because the space is so large, it does not feel crowded at all even when all the tables are occupied. There is also a little pub-like area right by the entrance with a totally different vibe for drinks. Service: The staff are pretty friendly and the service speed is quick. It's kind of strange that you have to walk all the way into the restaurant to ask one of them for an open table though. Overall, while the environment and food here might be a bit simple/plain, I still think it's a pretty good place to go if you are looking for a casual and traditional Czech meal.

Walking distance from the Imperial Hotel. The bar is uniquely designed with a huge chrome plated pig. We had a large group (22). Staff was very organized and very efficient. We were treated to an amazing assortment of regional Czech cuisines. Everything was delicious, 3 dishes stood out. The Boiled Beef Neck with a creamy horseradish sauce and dumplings (made with the tallow from the beef), the Schnitzel served simply with lemon wedges, and the Sausage sampler served with a wonderful mustard highlighted the meal. They also served their favorite regional beer Pilsner. Very good beer light and refreshing.

Amazing authentic food! Large portions & yummy. Friendly service. Make a reservation for a quick seating. Restaurant is large but very busy. Highly recommend this place.

one of my favorite dinners in prague! authentic czech food. great variety of options. they do everything well. we started with some apple juices, sausage plate, & fried champignon mushrooms. the mushrooms were unique but i loved the sausages. we then got beef goulash, beef w red pepper sauce, & chicken schnitzel. every one of those were fantastic! the sauces had great flavor. the meat was well cooked. the dumplings were unique but addicting. and for dessert we split the vanilla profiterole & poppyseed sugar gnocchi. the profiterole is a must. deff make a reservation - we went on a weekday and they were very booked and busy.

Made a reservation for lunch, but didn't seem like it was needed since there were plenty of tables. Tried the fried edam cheese. It had a mild taste (which I like). The batter wasn't too thick. It tasted yummy with the tartar sauce. The mashed potatoes were pretty plain, so I didn't eat much of it. I also tried the cabbage salad, which was nothing special and was on the sour side

Wow! Incredible food and drink selection. I ordered the Pork & Cabbage Goulash with bread dumplings and a Raspberry Lemonade Beer. They offer unlimited sauce and bread for any of the main dishes, and asked me unprompted when I cleaned my plate. The beer is hard to describe - light like an ale and a hoppy after taste but intermixed through it is a light and sweet raspberry flavor. Service is helpful and kind. It's a busy place, so I asked multiple staff for guidance on how to enjoy a meal. You put your name and party number on a wait-list on the far North side of the hall (you may enter either the north or south side - the south edge is just a bar). You then wait for them to find you; finding a place to wait can be difficult). If the table available is larger than your party, they may group you with another small group, however, they take and deliver your order separately. Even with a wait of 5 groups ahead of me, they seated me quickly. Everyone hustled! The waitress was attentive and helpful and didn't rush to turn the table over. During my visit, they also had a few projectors/screens pulled down through the hall to watch a football/soccer game. I was seated in the middle of the hall which did not provide a view of the game, however, both ends and the beer bar side had views of the various screens.

Yum! I heard this restaurant was one of the best for traditional food that wasn't too expensive. I got the minced meat schnitzel, which was massive. The schnitzel was pretty standard, but the star of the show was the mashed potatoes. I'm normally not crazy for potatoes but these were so good! They were creamy and rich without being too heavy.

I got a dark ale as recommended by the waiter and Beef Shin Goulash. The atmosphere was amazing and watching the hockey game with hyped locals was adding the great taste of the food and the beer!

Will return: comfort food and great service. They all speak better English than me. Wondering if hunting is more difficult than finding a place to fill your belly. 1. Field - I left a review 2. La Degustation 3. U Cerveneho Kola Although unsuccessful differently, we weren't able to dine at the above three establishments. (I wrote review for #1.) The #3 isn't open, with a lock on the door. So I asked two passer by if it is closed down. They said they didn't even notice that there is a restaurant. Then they ask if we're looking for a place to eat and suggested this one. Local is opposites from La Degustation. Long hall, casual, quick to service, good wine glass, hand washed beer mugs , large portion, and large utensils, especially the spoon. The soup is delicious; beef neck is tender but the white sauce is bit too sweet, so is the mustard. I must be sick or something, why do I find so many restaurants' food sweet? Need a doc or two

Delicious and satisfying classic Czech food that's fresh and made-to-order. The warm, friendly, and bustling vibe gave me all the good feels, so I was completely in the moment. We soaked in the culture and devoured it's rich culinary traditions. The servers were all lovely and everything we tried was amazing. They even had a non-alcoholic beer ON TAP! ON TAP!!! Love the tally sheets, too. A meal and moment that I won't soon forget.

The food was very unique to me but the vibe was just amazing, I felt like I was back in the 1800s and it was a festival ! A+++ for the vibes

Great place where the locals go too. Friendly staff and a chill atmosphere makes this a great place for a quick relaxed meal. The sausages and pork schnitzel were the highlights of this meal though the schnitzel was a little salty. This place is a winner for sure.

Highly suggest making a reservation if you are wanting to visit. If no reservation, you put name on list and go all the way back of restaurant and wait for your name to be called. Enjoy a beer while waiting. Once you order, expect the food to arrive very quickly as almost everything is already made. We ordered the soup and goulash. Both were delicious as expected.

A spot locals frequent. If in Prague, check it out for sure. The beer is great and the atmosphere feels a bit like a cafeteria but it's not. Staff is nice. Good service. They serve traditional Czech food. We enjoyed it.

Showed up right before the restaurant opened for lunch and I'm glad we did because a few minutes later it was packed! It's a beer hall with traditional Czech cuisine. For two, we ordered the fried cheese with tartare sauce & crushed potatoes / braised beef roasted in a creamy sauce with cranberry jam & bread dumplings. I got a homemade raspberry soda (basically crushed raspberries and carbonated water which was refreshing, not artificially sweet!) The food was on the heavier side but SO delicious. The meal was very inexpensive, staff were attentive even in a larger and busy restaurant, and I'm excited to go back!

My friend and I came here for dinner, and we waited for about an hour to be seated. Just letting you know it is a bustling restaurant, but it is worth the wait. You won't be able to find out how long is the wait time, as they let their guest take their time in ordering their food and enjoy their food as well. Meanwhile, you can order your pints of beer, and they will give you a beer card to cross off a pint whenever you refill your drink at the bar. Everything that they have on their menu is delicious! I highly recommend this place to whoever visits Prague and wants the Cesky vibe.

Great spot for Czech pub food. For a table, put your name down on the waitlist at the back bar.

Definitely worth a visit! Food is good, pretty heavy and very salty (I think they do this on purpose so you order more beer) but hearty, definitely nice when it's so cold out. Enjoyed the ambiance and the service was good, felt like our waitress was a little miffed we weren't ordering more drinks though.

Wow, best food I had while in Prague! So delicious, the place is super busy for a reason! Our server was really nice to explain everything to us, and the prices were right. Loved this place, would make me go back to Prague!

My mom and I were looking for a restaurant near our hotel with traditional Czech food, and were amazed at the ratings of this place. We walked over and it was packed! Good thing some reviews told us that it would appear like it'd be a long wait, and then you'd be seated pretty quickly. I loved my beef tartare and my mom enjoyed the schnitzel which was so large she took back with her, and we shared cucumber salad which was alright. The highlight was the Pilsner though--it's delivered daily and is honestly the best beer I've ever had. It was reasonably-priced and felt like locals came here. It felt real.

This is a beer hall with good food. We had 6 entrees and we all enjoyed our food and starters. The service is pretty good but expect to wait if you don't have a reservation. This is a place where a ton of tourists come to get Czech beer and food. This is a long hall of tables where it's loud and happening. Not a place for a business meeting but certainly a good spot of a refreshing beer and a some rest with family or friends.

Our favorite place in Prague. Fantastic food and beer served in a no-nonsense beer hall. Highly recommend the Tmave (dark beer).

We went to this restaurant because we wanted to taste traditional Czech food, and the experience was nothing unexpected. The large restaurant was fully booked, but we were told that we could sit at any reserved table so long as we would leave before the indicated time of reservation. The dishes that we ordered included Long Sausage from "Přeštice" Pig and Bread, Salad with Goat Cheese and Beetroot, and Cabbage Soup with Sausage. They all tasted fine. The Long Sausage was indeed very long and contained a lot of meat, so we could finished only a little over half of it. The "Přeštice" Pig from which the sausage meat supposedly came did not seem to provide any special flavors that we could detect.

lokál is definitely one of the popular tourist restaurants in old town that serves czech food. all in all, the dishes are pretty standard taste wise, prices are higher because of the location (but lower than some other popular restaurants), and service was not the friendliest. it's a decent spot if you want to try basic czech dishes with your friends. the restaurant is huge - when you enter, it's a long and narrow room with a lot of tables. it was full when we came so we walked to the back and asked to put our names on the waiting list. service wasn't the friendliest and they only seat 1 party per table, even if we were 2 people and the table could fit 6-8 people. luckily, we only waited maybe 15 minutes. // chicken schnitzel with potato salad (285czk) // we ordered the chicken schnitzel. the menu says that they will refill your side as much as you want which is nice. the food took maybe 10 minutes. the schnitzel was large and tastes pretty much like any schnitzel. the potato salad was the creamy kind but it was good to eat with the schnitzel because otherwise the dish is naturally dry.

From high end dinners to local comfort foods, Prague offers a little bit of everything. One night I was eating at Michelin star restaurant and only a couple nights later I dined at Lokál and they were only a block away from each other. We were looking for a late dinner which is when they get busy but we got a table in the front room right away. As others have mentioned, if you want beer, you drink Urquell tank beer and they keep 'em coming until you quit. They actually have a sheet that they tally your beers on when you get another. The food is cheap so we ordered way more than necessary to try things out. The waiter recommended some local favorites and we added some of our own. We got the Prague ham, variety of sausages, beef broth with noodles, schnitzel, and a beef dish... maybe short ribs. As I mentioned, we over ordered, but it was great to try the mix of what they had to offer. The service was great and it was a fun atmosphere.

We wanted to have traditional Czech food and found this on Yelp. It's a one block long beer hall! The waiting list was at the rear of the hall, and we were seated in less than 10 minutes I've attached the food and beer menus. We had cucumber salad, beef tartare, chicken schnitzel, hard cherry cider and Pilsner Urquell. Everything was good, but the Pilsner Urquell was really good. It is delivered daily, and had great light flavor. The place is packed, but a satisfying inexpensive Czech meal.

Service was very attentive and the atmosphere was truly like a local food hall. Everyone is joyfully talking, eating, and socializing. The beer was great and the semi-dry cider was terrific. But the food, 10/10. Both the pork and chicken schnitzels were cooked perfectly with tender meat and perfect breading. The potato salad was exactly as it should be; not too much mayo a hint of mustard and the potatoes nicely diced. We also had the chicken breasts in pan sauce and they were outstanding. The variety sausages were nice too. It was worth the (short) wait -although we heard most evenings are crazy.

Hubby and I loved this restaurant to much that we had two meals here. Lokal is huge for Prague restaurant standards, and is the length of an entire block. We had reservations for dinner, which is needed because this restaurant gets crowded fast. We walked in for a late lunch the next day, and was able to get a table without reservations. The fried cheese was fantastic as well as the beef goulash. Hubby and I loved everything!

My husband was determined to go here based on a video/recommendation he saw. Definitely a busy location (they take reservations) and the atmosphere was akin to that of the bar and grills here in the states. Our server was helpful and we didn't have to wait long for our order. Can't comment on the food because the main reason for going was my husband wanting to try the raspberry beer.

One of the best places I've eaten at in Prague! Everything was so good. Food was downright delicious. Service was fast and efficient. Ambience was great and lively. Really interesting rotating menu filled with local favorites and delicacies. Served with unlimited sides and sauces. Cannot get better than this!

Amazing food and drink, with a great atmosphere. Service was fast and the waiters spoke very good English. Not many veggie options.

Traditional Czech food was excellent! Highly recommend the beet salad and the pork schnitzel. The place gets busy but well worth for a table!

We thought this place was a winner with good service and decent food. Beer is always good in Prague so must try

A must-do beer hall for traditional Czech food. The menu changes everyday and pairs really well with the beer. The must get here is the beer and lots of it since it's cheap and comes fresh on tap. Meals here were also very inexpensive and was glad to be able to try some traditional Czech food for not a lot of charge. They take credit card as well

Found this restaurant from other Yelp reviews. We really wanted some local foods. After a very long train ride from Germany we walked into this restaurant hoping to find a seat. All the empty tables had "reserved" on them. We put our name on the waiting list and only waited for about 10 minutes for a table. I would highly recommend making a reservation. I asked for the allergy version menu. It was really great! Each menu item was coded with any allergens. Unfortunately I could only eat a few of the menu options. ( gluten free) We ordered the variety of sausages ( 3 pieces) with mustard and creamy whipped horseradish. For my entree I ordered the chicken breast with mushroom sauce and rice. Portions were very large ! Probably wouldn't order any of these items again but enjoyed trying new local dishes. Price was very reasonable and service was pretty fast. Our server spoke English so that was a plus. Would recommend it !

This local beer hall was great. There are a few in the city, but this is the original. Make reservations because they are busy, though we were seated relatively fast. Get the Kozel, dark unfiltered beer. It's delicious. The food came quickly and was delicious. Friendly waitstaff. The beef neck and fried cheese plates were very good.

This restaurant was recommended to us by our hotel, and it was very tasty! It looks small from the outside, but it is a very long restaurant with plenty of seating. My favorite dish was the fried cheese and potato delicious! my family got a few dishes to share so that we could all try. I definitely recommend doing that to sample a little of everything. Also, very reasonably priced.

Ordered lunch here and the food came out extremely quickly. It was super tasty and not that expensive! If you're in Prague wanting to try some local delicacies, this is a great place to check out.

A wild and unique beer hall with traditional Czech food. It's fun and loud and vibrant. The beer flows freely (you have a bingo card to check them off as they are served) The food is very traditional but in a high quality manner. Great vibes with the loooooooong hall. Definitely recommend.

This place was very very packed when we went for dinner! The service is very interesting, let's just put it that way... I don't mind waiting at all, but they weren't the best at letting people know where to wait. My family and I stood there looking for someone to talk to (it was a busy restaurant) to be seated. Finally about 10 minutes later, someone came over and told us to put our name down on a clipboard. There really wasn't a place to stand and wait but you also needed to be in the restaurant to hear them call your name... Later our server messed up my order, so I got the schnitzel instead. It was honestly delicious and truly a highlight (a happy mishap, if you will!). The ambiance is truly bustling, it's essentially a giant hall. As I tourist, I cam here to try classic Czech dishes in a traditional environment, and I felt like I got that experience.

On the recommednattion of a friend who had lived in Prague for several years I came here. The atmosphere is very lively and while the place is immense, it was completely full. I waited over 25 minutes before getting a table. The beers here are cheaper than water!!! 48 vs 49 krona. Food was cheap. After seeing the table next to me order a $5 sausage appetizer, I also wanted to order it. Very reasonably priced food, great ambiance, and cheap beer. Only downside was the wait, but you can reserve a table in advance.
