Scammers will sell membership to hidden cafe in Prague
Just pay em with outdated belarusian bills
Was at Prague in August 2023 and after one day there were so many tourists traps it was concerning. With your videos you saved us our valuable time and money and we(me and my wife) cannot thank you enough for that. Keep up the excellent work sir.
Kozlovna apropos is sooooo good.
Hopefully all the TikTok influencers are busy with their fantastic videos and won't ruin these places so they keep remain hidden gems
Sadly it happens everywere nowadays.
Those places aren't flashy enough so i think they could be safe...?
and i hope they get fair share of customers so they wont go bankrupt next summer
@@keiiko well, the internet is not the only source of recommendation, people can talk about the places to the friends, like I'm pretty sure Janek tells about these places to a lot of people (in person I mean)
@@mcdonciii which is why businesses are advertising itself. Hidden gems are hidden for a reason that only few people knows about it. Thats nice but it won't pay the bills...
Gem #2: Czech Association of Scientific and Technical Societies
"It's not obvious, but they have a restaurant / canteen inside, which serves breakfasts, lunches and drinks for amazing prices, with a view to Charles Bridge. Located on 1st floor, open Monday - Friday 8am-5pm" - a Google reviewer
Can I know the food name that the video showing? Thanks
I have to admit, there is some truth to this. Before my trip to Prague, I watched almost all the episodes on the channel. I created a list of 40 places to visit, from monuments to restaurants and bars. We visited Prague in November, off-season, from Wednesday to Sunday. While some locations were accessible between 9 am and 3 pm, in the evening there was no chance. Bars were full, and restaurants had a 30-minute wait for a table. Even in the Městská knihovna v Praze, there was a queue of 20 people waiting to enter. At first, I was disappointed that I didn't show my friends the best places in Prague, but then I decided that it would always be an opportunity to return to this beautiful city :)
There was that great place tucked behind Kostelu Matky Boží před Týnem, a touch pricey, but not extraordinarily so. Great food, great service... A decade ago.
Now it's plastered in Tripadvisor ads, crawling with tourists at any time of the day, and basically everything about it got worse. They deserved a reward for what they were doing then, but the form in which it came essentially killed the place it once was.
It feels like it got way worse downtown in just a few short years, but you still get beautiful human interactions just a couple steps away. And the city is still amazing, I guess I just wish for it to not be consumed by big corporations and soulless businesses :(
Screw the gatekeepers, local businesses are suffering all around the world, why not let a local business get the business it deserves!
Here is the cafe:
Imbus cafe
Mikulandská 134/5, 110 00 Nové Město, Czechia
i thought its called Ikea
@xukeepax1286 I thought the same thing 😀But its true that, you got an Imbus almost with every piece of furniture sold in Ikea
There were two cafes in the video. Imbus is the first one.
Second one is Klub Techniků
@@AlexanderVlasov Located on 1st floor, open Monday - Friday 8am-5pm
Wow. That grandma´s coffee place is such a gerat idea ! Thanks for the tip !
We have such a Coffee Shop in Vienna too, where Grandmothers are baking the cakes 🤗😋
1:23 scan the qr code for the name
a-ha!
Did that. It worked! lol.
At 1:28 you can see almost the full name of the cafe as well.
Good catch
Is saw 'bus' in another shot and then got the Ikea reference.....
I kind of like the idea of going on the scavenger hunt to find the restaurants and cafes from the clues provided.
''something that built the entire country of Sweden''
Me: Ice age :D
Vikings
Ikea
Ikea
I'm in Prague for 3 more months. I have all my time to find it...
I envy you!
My son and Czech daughter-in-law used to live in Prague 7, now just outside the Prague city limit not far from one of the "poles" so I never ate in a tourist trap. Walk for 15 minutes to get out of the tourist area and then look for somewhere to eat, never been disappointed but did avoid some of the "Chinese" takeaways with the picture menu on the outside wall.
@@martinconnelly1473 I'm not that far from there. I'm in Prague 6.
@@phileascurtil5605 Usual route from the airport is the 119 bus, then the 26 tram through Prague 6 then change at Sparta for the final leg in Prague 7. Now that apartment in Prague 7 is rented out and I need to take a bus for the last leg. Hopefully the tram will reach them soon.
From all your videos, this one is the one that makes me to be in Prague rights now. Quiet cozy places with good food and nice people is the best!
You made Old School so famous that when I walked my wife through the rain to visit, they were closed for a multi camera shoot with C Stands, Light Panels, and a grip van.
The second one is "Klub Techniků"
I found the window he was sitting at, but the entrance is all the way on the other side of the building which tripped me up. There is also a restaurant on the floor below it which you might get confused with the actual one shown
unless I'm mistaken, the metal bar going down the tower is for lightning strikes, so the electricity goes into the ground causing no damage
No need to be so tick and visible .
@@prokux2529I presume you meant thick, not tick. And you'd rather it was encased somehow? Well I'm guessing you have no idea just how powerful a lightning strike is. So for me, and every other intelligent person in the world, I'm bloody well glad it is so thick and visible.
Yes, this was my exact thought. It looks like an earthing line for lightning strikes
@@prokux2529This is typically the size that these straps are on buildings. And as he described, they are viewing the tower from a different view where you see extra bits that aren't normally seen. So basically it has been hidden to some degree, because it can't be seen from the other side where you likely get more people walking. They have done the best they can to make it hidden where possible
you are mistaken, that is a cable tray (which includes grounding yes)
Stará Skola on the other hand is a place I would travel to Prague to visit. What a great consept and it looks really cosy.
What a fun idea to make us follow clues to guess the place. Love your creativity 🎉
I went to a place Janek recommended. And this one was not packed to the brim with tourists, it was end of September, but there were quite some more customers getting food there. Talked with the owner, he's a great guy, he didn't seem overwhelmed but rather humble and maybe a tad of appreciation towards a larger customer base.
Either way. If you keep recommending more places, the crowd will even out over all those places and I don't see an overpopulation happening. Not many people will also just randomly go to Prague so it's just the people who happen to go there.
Hidden gem - Janek's sister name sounds like a Star Wars villain!
Not much as her name doesn't mean anything dirty in Portuguese (yes, that's a thing)
Hey Janek! I'm finally travelling to Prague on May, after years of watching your videos. I'm so eager to get to know your city and the lovely places you always show us. Thanks! :)
Love your work. You guys are great at this!
We were recently in Prague and had lunch at the restaurant with the view of Charles Bridge 3 days in a row. The food was excellent and the lady so so lovely. On our last day when we explained tomorrow we leave Prague and when posing for photos with us she genuinely had a tear in her eye. Such a friendly lady. Thanks for the tip.
Just realized that HG can stand for Honest Guide or Hidden Gem.
Well played...
I love this video! Thank you guys
I may never go to Prague, but I still love your videos!
I love the places you are showing us, thank you from Australia.
Janek, you doing a great job. Keep going! Greetings from Poland :)
You keep doing interesting stuff, bringing something unique.
This is fun ! I enjoy to find obscure places and gems ! ♥
Great tips!
Just the kind of places I adore.
Děkuji ! You are amazing! Pozdrav z Mnichova!
i love the idea!! so much fun to try to find it.
This is such a cool idea, these places seem so lovely! Makes me want to go to Prague again! :DD
So excited 🎉
i MUST have the drobenkovy pie
Love the videos. We're visiting Prague in May, and we'll definitely try and hunt down some of these places.
As a side note, how easy is it to find places to baby changing in Prague? I've visited some places where it is really difficult to find somewhere suitable for changing, so its always a bit of a worry when on holiday.
Love the second and the third one!
Nice to see you mom and sister
Additional hint for the first stop : the Černý sculpture is called H-A-V-E-L. I wonder, does one get a discount if one helps assemble the furniture? The Canteen/Jidelna on stop two is now on the list of menza/jidelna/atd to check out on the next trip, and the kavarna u babiček is now on the kolače list.
I had some of the surprising nice food at a rest stop in Turkey on a bus trip, and a random cheap csardas on the Austrian/ /Hungarian border. You just never know.
For those who are too lazy to figure it out, the first place is called Imbus Café in building of Academy of Arts, Architecture, and Design and the second one is Lavka 5 in building of Czech Association of Scientific and Technical Societies
THANK YOU!
One day you'll be on the other end of what you did here. You did no favour
Booooo
Any medium/big city has hidden canteen, coffee places, restaurants with local cheap food in goubernamental buildings, public offices, big hospitals, etc. It's always interesting just to escape from touristic points
Been living in Prague for half a year now and it's crazy that I straight out just know some of these places already haha
Thank you Honest Guide for the hints, we tried few of them last weekend while in Prague and we can only say AMAZING🙏👌...Gem no 2 unfortunately was closed on Saturday when we went there but we were happy with the rest !
Hi Janek! Just wanted to recommend a cafe I stumbled across on today, called Cafe Clemantina. It's located on Vlašská street (which was absolutely empty of people on Monday noon, and is actually quite close to Prague castle) and it's gorgeous! Perfect sandwiches, great coffee, great personnel! Truly a gem. Highly recommended.
Thanks for the great hunt, haven’t visited yet online, the Jan Kraus episode was a great clue and still took me about 15min of searching after that. Good luck to all to find it :) and agin thx for the puzzle
:) Have litteraly been just arround the corner of the first place last week and programmed the "European Experience Center" in Narodni Street :) Funny to see it here in your tips now.
1:23
prices in €- divide stated price by 22-25. espresso-2.5€
double eapresso-3.18€
flat white-3,6€…
hot chocolate-3,8€
prices are ok if your exchange rate is fine.
Cover Vinohrady and Zizkov cafes and restaurants! Best areas in Prague which tourists never end up visiting for some really weird reason.
Thanks for that OSINT challenge :D
I wish I would’ve seen this video three months ago when I was in Prague. Btw I loved your city 😊
1. Imbus Cafe
Scanning QR Code at 1:23 brings you to their registration.
2. Klub Lávka
There's a cafe and canteen, latter is the one shown in the video.
exactly
genius
2 spots ruined. ✅
couldn't care. @@pakan357
Also at 1:28 the name is shown on the left side.
That pie looked amazing.
An honest guide that is actually honest!
That looks like a pie my Auntie would make. An artform lost to us Canadianized children ❤ so good
Seeing the Club Mate crates already sold me on the place
Nice idea
That pie looks so good
Thank you! because of you i want to visit praag
i love your videos despite not in position to afford my way to go to europe just yet. hopefully sometime after i retire.
The amount (size) of salad in the canteen in Prague blew my mind
Amazing idea and execution! Now i will eat there for sure. Thanks to your lessons i will be able to order some "maso" :D
Thanks for all the info you've been sharing through you're channel, appreciate it! Just wanted to ask about the Honest Blog, none of the pages open, when I try opening a page it brings me back to the home page. It'd be great to get some help to access the blog, thanks!
Visiting Prague (again) in April.
Gonna try to find them with my family😊
Visiting in a couple of months, hope to visit at least two of these establishments!
You can play petanque on the sandpit in front of the dancing house😂😂
It’s all fun and games to gatekeep places but tourists will find a way to go to it if they’re not distracted by touristy things.
Respect for keeping the voicecrack in
It’s definitely bittersweet.
Will you boys start doing videos outside Prahy?? Mozna ve Zline??
I've only been to Prague like 5 times and only a couple days each time. But pretty sure that I could find those places if I put my mind to it.
The chef in Place #2 is almost the spitting image of my friend's late mother. That's pretty eerie but I'm glad she can cook some tasty food for you.
❤❤ Love the ideas for not telling straight 😂
There is a hidden gem in Iceland. I don’t even remember where it is or what it’s called. It’s a secluded little free hot spring. We were recommended by locals. Apparently some influencers have mentioned it. It’s also a nude hot spring! I don’t think you understand how amazing it is to bathe topless (or nude, if you’re a guy) in the dead of winter. It’s so refreshing. People get very friendly in hot springs.
If I ever make it back to Prague, (and I miss it every day!), I'm going to find that place with the view of the Old Town Tower! I think I know where it is!
TBH, the tourist allergy is strong with the haters... I don't know if I'll ever visit Prague myself, but your channel's phenomenal to me.
Don't let the geoguesser guy see this
Please do a video about vegan shops in Prague! :)
Just got back from Prague last night. It's definitely my favorite city now.
Looking so beautiful restaurant, they really preparing so nice, friend. Thanks for your sharing ❤️💖😘😍👍
0:57 "You can even play a game of pétanque" Pétanque (apparently there's not a specific Czech word for it)! I was introduced to it by Disco Elysium, but I'd never seen anyone play it in real life (it's just not a thing in my country).
Hi all where is this roof shown at 0:35 in this video? Looks awesome
Po přestěhování do Portugalska se ráda vracím do Prahy aspoň jednou za rok, jako turista 😅 díky!!! Určitě navštívím poslední kavárnu a nacpu Portugalce koláči 😂❤
Looks good
Hey guys, can you pls say or show, where are the best/tastiest sausages that i can find in prague?
I do like good hearty meal. Walking around would surely give one the appetite?
A simple question though, why was the napkin under the pie? That's not something I've seen here in the UK. Is it to stop it from slipping about?
6:10 is probably a lightning conductor.
nothing can survive/last forever without guests/people visiting.
no business can survive without income, no one will pay the maintenance of a place no one visits.
so please show the places as pure and honest as you did the last years. 🥰
dobré video kluci 😁
3:02 any other TARPers vibing to the “you love to see it” music!? I love to see it!
a video about vintage cameras shops in prague? :D
Went to a tiny Burger Place in Pilzen after one of your Videos. The Burger was the best i ever had and it was not crowded. (In 2019)
Sassy Janek is my favourite Janek
Can't believe you kept the voice crack at the start
There’s one pastry and pizza place with a nice view of the Charles bridge as well.
Thank you Janek and Honza for all you do! - ❤ fan from the Philippines 🇵🇭
"Hidden gems" I hate that idea because when they say it is "spoiled" they mean that the place became popular and the people who provide excellent service now get recognition. If you love somewhere, make it popular!!
i like that this is now geoguesser
Will like to re-visit the city soon
Coming to prague this friday...
I envy you!😄
Please join @@10jpmorgan
Is this why my local cafe have been increasing their prices? I've seen an influx of tourist and they're really obnoxiously loud 😢
the mate boxes lol
