Best Cheap Restaurants In Prague
This is a list of the Best Cheap Restaurants In Prague.
12 Cheap Eats in Prague
1. Cheap Restaurants in Prague | Burrito Loco
There are now ten of these highly successful Mexican fast food joints in Prague and they are all opened 24/7. Their Speedie Burritos are a great value option costing a mere €3.20. You can get your food to take away or eat inside. The most centrally located Burrito Loco Restaurant is on Národní Třída.
2. Cheap Eats in Prague | Beas (Indian Thali Restaurant)
Amazingly Prague has become one of the best destinations in Europe for having such a great variety of vegetarian restaurants (considering Czechs have traditionally been a meat-eating nation). Here your thali is weighted. Expect to pay approx 140 CZK for a full thali. There is a jug of water on each table, so you don’t need to buy a drink. If you are a vegetarian, this is a good option. Beas have expanded very rapidly in Prague and now have 8 locations in Prague.
3. Cheap Restaurants in Prague | Bhojan (Indian Thali Restaurant)
Here they also serve tallies. This also excellent takeaway option because they have excellent containers with dividers and then they vacuum seal it. The restaurant located in the most central location is on Strossmayerovo Náměstí in Letna.
Update: Bhojan is now permanently closed.
4. Cheap Eats in Prague | Greek Corner Delis
There is a Greek Corner Deli in Prague 2 and Prague 7. They sell Greek pies from a serve-over. I recommend the Spinach and Cheese pie (€2) and also the mince beef pie (€2.50 CZK). You can take these to go or eat inside.
5. Cheap Restaurants in Prague | Doner Kebab Zizkov
Kebab joints have been popping up all over Prague the last 4 years and are another great value option for a cheap eat. This is one of the cleanest and best Kebab restaurants in Prague located on Seifertova street in Zizkov, Prague 3. Here a Doner Kebab costs €2.60.
6. Cheap Eats in Prague | Pho Vietnam Tuan and Lan
Pho Vietnam Tuan & Lan beside JZP was the first Vietnamese restaurant to open in Prague and they set the standard for excellent Pho in Prague ever since. They now have 3 restaurants in Prague. I recommend any of the Pho’s or the Ban Cha, both cost approximately €5.50 each.
7. Cheap Restaurants in Prague | Curry Palace
While the evening menu at Curry Palace can be expensive lunch specials are very good value here ranging from €3.50 to €5.50. This restaurant has been voted Prague’s best Indian restaurant on various surveys and has excellent reviews online.
8. Cheap Eats in Prague | U Vystrelenyho Oka (The Shot-Out Eye)
The Shot-Out Eye is a legendary bar restaurant located in Zizkov roughly halfway between the Karlin Tunnel entrance and Florence Bus Station on Husitska street. Many of the Charter 77 meetings during communism were held here. Also, this place is famous for it’s cheap and excellent Gulas for only €2.25.
9. Cheap Restaurants in Prague | Kavarna Liberal
This is like a 1920s Parisian style cafe, always serving daily specials costing from €5 to €7. The Spanish ham baguette comes recommended and costs €4. While this cafe is a little off the beaten track, I can assure that all the staff speak very good English. They have an English menu but any of the waitresses will translate the Specials board.
10. Cheap Eats in Prague | Cobra
This is a recently opened hip cafe/bar/restaurant right on the corner of Strossmayerovo Náměstí in Letna. This cafe tries very hard to have good tasty food for good value. A lunch meal here will set you back €7 on average.
11. Cheap Restaurants in Prague | Reigrovy Sady
Reigrovy Sady is one of Prague’s biggest Beer Gardens located in Vinohrady just on the edge of Zizkov and only a 15-minute walk from the top of Wenceslas Square in the centre. The number of stalls serving beer and food is ever-expanding. Depending on the day there can be up to 12 different food stands open. I recommend the hot English styles of pies. These only cost €3.50 each.
Update: Reigrovy Sady Beer Garden is permenantly closed.
12. Cheap Eats in Prague | Pizza West
Pizza West is one of the best options to order pizza to your hostel or hotel room during your stay in Prague. Their website is in English. The interface of the website is not attractive but it is very functional. You simply order on the website and it normally takes about 30 mins to 1 hour for your order to arrive. For instance, a large Salami pizza costs €5.70 plus the delivery fee. The delivery fee is normally €1.80 but can be more depending on where in Prague you are located.
