Take your pick

IF Café

Owned by renowned pastry chef Iveta Fabešová, IF Cafe can be found in Werich's villa in Kampa. Following a divorce from her husband, she lost part of her business, including the brick-and-mortar establishment – she returned here, and regular queues of eager guests are forming outside the door. When you visit, be sure to try their famous lemon dessert – a white chocolate and lemon puree ganache with a passionfruit and lemon filling, it might surprise you with its sourness. 

Erhart's patisserie

A stylish yet traditional patisserie and café dating back to 1937. Using premium ingredients, they produce over 20 types of cakes according to their own recipes – wedding cakes, chocolates and pralines, fudge, and traditional czech cream cakes. If you have just one thing here, make it the pistachio cake.

Cukrkávalimonáda

You’ill fall in love with this magical spot, hidden in the winding streets of the Lesser Town. Black walls, an artistically painted ceiling and a lavish chandelier make this an idyllic place for a date, or gathering with the whole family. Try the tartelette, pancakes, fruit tarts, chocolate cakes, tarte Tatin or sachertorte.

Confectionery Myšák

A patisserie with an air of First Republic heritage, serving and great cakes, pastries and breakfasts. Under the guidance of head confectioner Lukáš Pohl, the team continues to work with the traditional production methods established here by František Myšák in 1911. Their desserts are prepared to be enjoyed in two bites – because, naturally, it would be a shame to try just one thing. Have their famous cream buns (věnečky), coconut cream cakes (laskonky), or Machar's cake.

Cukrář Skála

A confectionery factory for the production of desserts according to Lukáš Skála's recipes, which opened in December 2017 in Spork Palace. Their goal? To introduce the sweetest craft in the world, to demonstrate the production process of the confectionery, and to offer quality desserts of traditional but also completely innovative flavours. When stop by, you'll know at first glance that those things have been achieved. Get an insight into the work of master pastry chefs, and taste desserts that are renowned far and wide – be sure to try the coconut cream cake (laskonka) or the cognac dessert (koňaková špička).

Cafe-Cafe

If they make great cakes anywhere, it's here – and they’ve been doing it for more than twenty years. This stylish café, just a few steps from the Estates Theatre, is a pleasant place for quick business meetings, slow breakfasts and all-day treats. Their marzipan cake is pure delight.
