Time Out says

A craft cocktail bar combining riddles, keys, and showmanship with elegant décor for a mystical experience just off Wenceslas Square

The signature cocktail menu of this fantasy-tinged concept is a chance for the bar staff to show off their presentation skills. Every drink acts as a decoratively delicious accessory to the plush, embroidered seats and fabric-draped windows setting a romantic, bourgeois mood. Other mystical gimmicks include a “Choose Your Fate” game of tarot cards and riddles for the chance at a 100,000 CZK jackpot (roughly $4,500), but the libations themselves need no encouragement to order another. This new addition to Prague’s cocktail scene has claimed a distinctive personality that combines the fairy-tale draw of the Czech capital with a passion for mixology along the central border between Old Town and New Town.

Time Out tip: Even if the legends and fantasy games aren’t your thing, a fine-crafted drink in these romantic surroundings can still be worth a visit.
