Bohemia Bagel, Prague

During a free tour, our tour group stopped at the Bohemian Bagel. I witnessed unsanitary food preparation in the kitchen, and I complained to an employee. Her response was rude, lethargic, and no attempt was made to reconcile the situation. For this reason, I would not recommend eating here.

Most people are pretty surprised to find out that the bagel that we eat in the States, though it did originate in Central Europe, in not Czech, its probably more Polish. You will find lots of bakeries and great bread, but if you are looking for a quick bagel and you are near the Old Town Square. It has a relatively large section with internet terminals. Good place for tourists to recharge:)

Between 12-1:30 they are VERY crowded and busy, because most of the walking tour groups stop through here.

Are the bagels good? Absolutely! Good selection of bagels. There are also burgers and sandwiches as well as breakfast.

Favorite Dish: nice fresh baked bagel. They aren't huge, but very tasty:)

We had read really good reviews about this place and we decided to give it a try. However, when we got there they seemed to be out of the bagels that we actually wanted to try out so we ended up having 2 Chicken Caesar Tortillas and 2 Coca Colas.

We were not really impressed with the food. The entire lunch cost us 390 Czk which is pretty costly for two tortillas which were mostly filled with lettuce. This is also a self service restaurant.

They do everything from, obviously bagels, to quiche to salad to sandwiches to all-day breakfasts (tons of choices) to grills/bbq's to steaks, burgers and fish 'n' chips.

It is very family friendly. With a children's menu and area.

Favorite Dish: My current favourite take-away is a breakfast of 3 eggs, american bacon links, hash browns and a mini bagel for 129 czk

Later in the day it HAS to be Fish 'n' Chips for 170 czk.

Relaxed, chilled out diner with a children's are and a non-smoking area.

Favorite Dish: Cheese and bacon Burger for 140 CZK
Just a perfect bite to eat. Eat in and enjoy a Pilsner with it or take-away and eat as you walk through the Old Town Square which is about 2 mins walk away.

Great for a good value lunch. We found it to be full of students at lunchtime - so I guess it must be good value. Also had a kids section with toys.

There are three Bohemia Bagels in Prague (Holesovice, The Old Town and Mala Strana)- wish we's have known at the time as we kept walking back to the same one.

Favorite Dish: We were particularly impressed with the tofu burger - it came in a baguette (made a change from a bagel) with chips and a small side salad with coleslaw. Really generous portion.

Bohemia Bagel is a great place to grab a bite to eat when visiting Prague. They have a few locations most of them close to all the major site of Prague - including Charles' Bridge. The food is healthy, fresh and satisfying - they have bagel sandwiches, chips, soups, salads and all sorts of delicious hearty desserts. Their bagels are home made and in case your hotel does not include breakfast with the cost of the room, Bohemia Bagel is a good place to grab breakfast too! The quality of the food is good because it's not in the very heart of the tourist sites.

Favorite Dish: I don't remember which bagel I had, but I remember being satisfied enough with my meal to come back a few times.

This American outlet is popular with expats with fresh homemade bagels and a variety of salads, soups and sandwiches. Great for vegetarians and meat eaters alike. Take away is also on offer.

The internet is a rip off and the service is slow but this place is great for shovelling some food down your neck so you can move on.

Bohemia Bagel was our place to have breakfast in the 1990s. It actually was the first place I have ever had a bagel I think. Back then we came here from the flat we rented every morning and a chicken breast poppy bagel with pasta salad every morning.

In 2007 I just had to come back. In the meantime a subsidiary of the old Bohemia Bagel at Ujezd had opened. However, we came to the original one and were once again very enthusiastic about their food. The menu now is more varied and as a side dish you get fantastic coleslaw instead of the old pasta salad and the bagels are still fantastic.

It's also a great place to meet backpackers from all over the world as there are quite a few hostels in the area.

Favorite Dish: Lately I had a sesame BLT bagel which was so lovely. So was the coleslaw it came with. Unfortunately the stomach didn't have room for one of the yummy looking cakes afterwards.

I also love the fact that they serve bottomless drinks, so you can get free refills for softdrinks and coffee.

What a treat to find this coffehouse. Great breakfasts and if you get a little tired of the traditional European breakfast.
This became one of our favorite places to eat anytime of day. Muffins, Bagels, Sandwiches are all good in a relaxing atmosphere with nice music in the background.
In the evening, if you get a craving for sweets, the cakes and cookies are really good.

Favorite Dish: Really can't go wrong on any of the dishes. I enjoyed an Italian sausage sandwich with cheese and sweet peppers.
