2 Best Nightlife in Pražský Hrad (Prague Castle), Prague

The first references to this gorgeous hilltop brewery inside a monastery are from the turn of the 14th century. And the tasty Pivo Sv. Norbert continues to be brewed on this spot, although it's no longer made by monks. There's a decent food menu and outdoor seating too.

The last old-fashioned pub in Hradčany, this place has cheap beer and long tables. It's almost impossible to find many seats together at any time, though. Terry Jones, of Monty Python fame, is known to be a fan. The name translates as "At the Black Ox," and while the pretty facade is a little run-down and the ground-floor doors and windows are dark (meaning it can easily be mistaken for being closed), once you're inside you are unlikely to leave in a hurry. The menu is in Czech, but trot out the trusty phrase "Jedno pivo, prosím" (One beer, please) and you'll be fine.
