Traditional Sweet Dishes
trdelník
Trdelník is a spit cake baked on a rotating spit over an open flame, and its crisp, sugar-crusted exterior and hollow center make it perfect for filling with ice cream or cream.
koláče
Koláče are small round pastries filled with fruit, poppy seed or sweet cheese, and they trace their roots to medieval Czech celebrations where they symbolized prosperity.
medovník
Medovník is a layered honey cake held together with sweet cream, and its caramelized, floral honey notes made it a favorite among Austro-Hungarian-era households.
Traditional Savory Dishes
svíčková
Svíčková na smetaně is marinated beef sirloin braised in a creamy root-vegetable sauce, and it is traditionally served with a slice of lemon, cranberry compote and fluffy dumplings.
gulaš
Czech guláš is a paprika-scented beef stew slow-cooked until the meat almost melts, and it became a beloved comfort food often served with bread or dumplings.
knedlíky
Knedlíky are steamed or boiled bread dumplings designed to soak up sauces, and locals will judge a restaurant by how light and springy its knedlíky are.

Pilsner lager was invented in nearby Plzeň in 1842, and its golden clarity and crisp hop bite set the standard for modern pale lagers around the world.
Becherovka
Becherovka is an aromatic herbal liqueur from Karlovy Vary, and locals often sip it as a digestif after heavy meals to settle the stomach.
Slivovice
Slivovice is a potent plum brandy distilled from ripe plums, and it is traditionally offered for toasts and sometimes aged in wooden barrels for extra smoothness.

Avoid restaurants right on the square, walk two blocks uphill for cheaper portions and real home cooking.
Lovely but felt overhyped, crowds packed the main square and most viewpoints, still worth a day trip from Prague.
Quaint cobbled streets and river views, felt like a fairy tale but insanely crowded in July, plan early morning walks.
Cold and rainy in October, bring layers. The town is beautiful even wet, but some shops close early outside summer.
Food was surprisingly good, tried trout and goulash, prices higher at tourist spots but bakery coffee was cheap and great.
