Atmosphere
Cool spot with courtyard terrace, foosball table and excellently functional and filling food. With posters extolling bongs, skateboarding and the fact that beer has been helping ugly people have sex for years, this is not a sophisticated night out.

Back Doors
This space is part restaurant, part bar and part club in the cellar of an old Smíchov house. Massive wooden furniture and forged iron work complement the brick walls and parquet floor of its historical setting.

Bambus
Finding a seat in this warm and bustling, bamboo-laden bar can be a demanding task but a fine array of cocktails and Pilsner Urquell on tap will help you to relax afterwards.

Bar and Books
New York City’s latest export to Prague adds another sophisticated location on Mánesova, which is fast becoming a one-stop-street for all things delicious.

Underground, underground. A cosy bar offering snacks, beers and slightly odd art pieces scattered under a large wooden propeller.

Barock
Not a rock bar at all. Swing with the smart set in this flash and polished bar/restaurant with huge windows and chandeliers - all the better to see the beautiful models sipping and sashaying.

Billiard Centrum
An enormous dancehall now caters for a dedicated crew of bowlers, pool sharks, ping-pong players, real darts, and even air hockey aficionados have a venue here.

Bloody Freddy
This dimly lit space has all of the markings of a typical bar, yet the atmosphere is more café-like when one considers the sparse laid-back crowd and general air of relaxed apathy.

Blue Light Bar
This tiny bar is always busy, and even if you get a table, this doesn’t mean you’ll keep it to yourself. An older crowd jostles, jokes and jives late into the night in this supposed jazz club.

Bombay Cocktail Bar
One of the city’s best late night hot spots, Bombay seldom disappoints with a wide range of cocktails, DJs who actually play what the crowd wants to hear and a diverse clientele in the right frame of mind to have fun.

Bučibar
Somewhat barren and sparsely furnished making finding a seat tricky as the existent tables are often reserved. Although the (high) bar does make a comfortable option as it has that all-important foot rail, too often missing at bars.

Čekárna
Low-down, hip and bustling, Čekarná is a good find on a small street. A never-ending supply of beer awaits at the wooden tables in a wide open room, perfect for scoping out patrons.

Černá Kočka
Cool bar in Karlín, which was totally drenched in the 2002 floods - see the photos on their now-dry walls - but now resurfacing with nightlife options.

Harley’s
Interesting mix of bikers, locals and tourists, this long, long bar has emerged on the scene not just because of their large US style food, well mixed drinks or Wild Cats (shot shifting girls) but due to the presence of two of Dusk till Dawn’s barmen.

Hush
The Africans are coming – and boy, do they know how to open a bar. Hush is so new that the walls remain bare, except behind the bar where an alumnus of Zero mixes drinks to keep the crowd watered.

Irish Club Prague
An Irish bar in the heart of Letná rather than Old Town allows for friendlier prices and local attendance. Live (Irish & Czech country, blues and more) music (there is also a piano for punters), quiz nights, foosball and warm wooden interior.

Jet Set
The central square bar is low enough for all drinkers to scan the crowd and check out who’s who this evening, the split levels ensure dancers with confidence will be centre stage, and the DJs make sure everyone has to get close together for any conversation.

The place is decked out with aesthetic treasures such as American highway signs, Japanese car dealership merchandising and, ever since some minor film star went there once, an attitude to make Joan Collins seem down-to-earth.

Mad Bar
Fun, clean joint that doesn’t really life up to its “mad” moniker. All the more reason to go – they have a small, but varied menu and the prices are reasonable for the area.

Medúza
Decked out with myriad bits and bobs from the twenties and thirties, this is a fine place to sink in their soft furnishings, enjoy their good wine list (120 - 260Kč) and relax.

Papas
It’s all louche and lazy at Papas. Red walls, yellow leather banquettes and smoky glass give an upmarket feel. The Mediterranean menu is the usual, yet tasty, mix of salads, pasta and fish.

The 80s continue in this Beverly Hills 90210 themed bar. Far more interesting than Jason and the girls is the chameleon and the Wurlitzer.

Pekelnej Bar
Anděl might mean angel in Czech, but this part of town is acquiring a devilish reputation. Pekelnej, meaning Hellish, is heavy on chains, red drapery and attitude.

Ultramarin
Deep in an old cellar, Ultramarin has pricey but decently made drinks and a few bugs to iron out service-wise. They've browsed through the chic end of the renovation brochure producing a feel that is definitely style over substance.

Zvonařka
