Visit the Coolest Areas of Prague and Get a New Perspective on Its Delicious Food Scene
Quick Details
Many guidebooks speak solely of Prague’s hearty, carnivorous, traditional fare, relaying only outdated information about our city’s bursting food scene. We’re here to show you otherwise. Step outside the city centre and get to know Prague the best way we can think of: through your belly. We’ll taste everything from traditional to inventive, including a Michelin Bib Gourmand honouree.
How taking this tour will benefit the local community: All the restaurants we visit are 100% owned and run by local Czechs. As we’re in a small private group, we don’t disrupt local life. By taking our guests to off-the-beaten-path locations, we support businesses that usually would not be visited by travellers.
We’ll start things out right in a brand-new restaurant with a modern take on Czech cuisine. A short walk through an up-and-coming neighbourhood in Prague will show us that even the parts outside the centre are well worth exploring and learning about. I’m sure you’ll be ready for some more food after the stroll!
No worries, before long we’ll be sitting in a modern bistro, enjoying a locally brewed craft beer paired with some delish pulled pork. We might even peek into the brewery next door. This is a great place to learn a bit about the history of the region and how seriously we take our beer.
Continuing along the old dusty path (possibly literally), we’ll have ourselves a quick digestif from a family-owned, all-natural distillery whose plums come from the environmentally protected region of the White Carpathians — a real taste of our Moravia region.
Our next place is a mere stone’s throw away and we don’t want to keep it waiting. This restaurant/bakery was awarded the Bib Gourmand in the 2017 Michelin Guide and for a good reason! With a focus on homemade and homegrown, this place is a paradise for your tastebuds. They play with fermentation, wood-fired baking, and roasting, as well as natural foods and herbs. Sounds intriguing? Wait until you taste it!
We’ll make a quick stop at one of the best bakeries in the nighbourhood to pick up some koláče. You might’ve heard of this popular Czech pastry, but believe me, you’ve never tasted ones like these before! Just give it a minute until we find a proper spot to eat them…
Found it! These former military barracks have been transformed into a cultural space and possibly the coolest place in town. Let’s enjoy our long-awaited desert in the spacious courtyard, along with some delicious coffee from a hip local café. That’s also where we part ways, giving you many recommendations for the rest of your stay in our charming city.
If you love food, culture, and exploring new places along with locals, this Prague Food Tour is for you!
Get ready for a taste bud adventure on this Prague food tour! You’ll indulge in some of the lesser-known Czech dishes and local specialties with a modern twist. Yum! Please keep in mind that the specific dishes may vary depending on the day or season, but rest assured that our passionate guide will lead you to the best places to experience the authentic flavors of Prague.
Brace yourself, because there’s a lot of food! We’ll stop at multiple locations with plenty of tastings at each one. By the end of the tour, you’ll be more than full and ready for a nap.
We can work our culinary magic to accommodate vegetarian, gluten-free, and most minor food allergies. Just let us know when booking your tour. If you’re a vegan or have a lactose intolerance, we’re afraid we can’t work our magic here in Prague.
In the restaurants, your guide will be making all the payments, including a tip on your behalf to the staff. We reserve the right to change the course of the tour and places visited in case one of the venues is closed. In the event of a change of menu, we will pick the best alternative, ensuring no loss in quality or quantity of inclusions.
Comfort is key on our tours, so we recommend wearing shoes that can handle Prague’s famous cobblestones and dressing for the weather. And don’t forget to bring a refillable water bottle to stay hydrated!
If you’re up for a leisurely stroll on some slightly uneven and cobblestone streets, then you’re good to go. Just be prepared to take around 7K steps throughout the tour. But hey, if you need a little extra love and care, don’t worry, this private tour that’s tailored to your needs. We’re even happy to help you snag a ride from place to place via car or Uber/Bolt. So go ahead, and let us know how we can make this tour a smooth and enjoyable ride for you.
Don’t worry, we won’t let a little rain dampen our spirits! Just make sure to check the weather forecast and come prepared with an umbrella.
Of course! Our tours are family-friendly, and we welcome kids of all ages. Just give us a heads-up so we can plan accordingly.
We’ll take you off the beaten path and steer clear of crowded spots and overpriced tourist traps. Instead, we’ll be hitting up the local hotspots where the true Prague foodies go to get their fix. So get ready to indulge in some authentic eats and drinks like a local!
Tipping is not obligatory, but it is always much appreciated and welcome. In general, you can aim at 10%, but only if you’re happy with the services you received.
Private tours take a certain amount of planning so it’s best not to cancel last minute. If it’s more than 21 days in advance, you’ll get a full refund, less than that is 50%. We can’t offer any refund if you cancel less than 72 hours before the start of the tour.
Choose what time you want to start, where you want to be picked up, and what you want to focus on. Enjoy all the perks of having the guide just for yourself.

Fantastic tour, I really recommend this tour if you like food and want to experience Prague by foot. Míša was the perfect guide, with excellent food and interesting facts about Prague. With a group of 11 people with different tastes - we were all very happy with the venues that we visited. Since I like craft beer it was an extra bonus to visit a micro brewery.
– Google, Nov 2022We enjoyed a Food by Foot tour with Nikola in Prague and cannot speak more highly of this delightful experience. We were greeted by Nikola and enjoyed a thoughtfully curated tour of some of Prague's best keep secrets. The tour involved a nice selection of eateries each offering an amazing selection of foods and beverages. Nikola did a fantastic job of giving us background, history and relevance of each location. Five stars are not enough to give Nikola and this experience it's due. We highly recommend you sign up for this tour and promise you won't regret it, but you might regret it if you miss out. Thank you for a great experience!
– Google, Sep 2022Tried several local food dishes at five different local restaurants (Beef broth with dumpling, pulled pork with roasted vegetables, chicken demi sauce, leaf salad, fermented potato pancakes, baked vegetable, potatoes in ash and colacek) and several beers (pilsner urquell, Mistni craft beer, Dalesicka 11 beer, fermented pear limonade and coffee). It was a special way to spend an afternoon.
– TripAdvisor, August 2022Our guide Joanna was such a delight and gave us the best experience on our first day! We got to try such a fun variety of food - some of the Czech staples as well as some local favorites. Joanna made us feel like we were really "in the know" by the time our tour ended. The food tour turned out to be so much more than that - it was truly an all-encompassing Prague experience! Our time with Joanna was honestly one of the highlights of our trip - I'd love to take another tour with her if I find myself back in Prague in the future.
– Google, Aug 2021This tour will take you outside the city center and to some of the local eateries and pubs. I encourage you to enjoy the city but step outside the norm and enjoy the non tourist side of the city!!!!
– Airbnb, February 2020Johanka is a FANTASTIC guide. She knew so many unique facts and stories that I would have never known and had us try so many unique dishes that we probably wouldn't have tried if we tried to explore on our own. She was very personable and really made the whole experience very special. I learned so much about the history and culture of Prague and ate so much food I was insanely full, I couldn't have asked for a better guide!
