Café Golem

The pastry and not only coffee, but also some basic drinks, were really good, plus the barista was super friendly and talkative. It could look a bit better, but for a short refreshment while touring Prague, it's the perfect place.

We saw this cafe whilst passing on a bike tour and decided to have breakfast here the next day. The cake we had (I think it was called the golem cake) was super tasty, my mouth is watering thinking about it now! Great selection of drinks and the staff really made our experience, extremely friendly and were genuinely interested in us and attentive. Will definitely come back if I’m in Prague again!

This is a must to stop in here, forget all the local attractions, this is THEE biggest attraction, Walter! I stopped in here last week when I was in Prague for four days whilst on my birthday vacation. We stopped in here to go to the loo and met this charming guy called Walter. We had a couple of coffee's and one hot chocolate (my wife said this was the best hot chocolate she has ever tasted) and I had a cup of Chai which was lovely. In fact so nice I purchased a box of it with a mug also, it was presented to me in a Happy Birthday bag, how did that happen, it was on my birth day! When I told Walter it was my birthday we were then present with walnut shots for our group of four, I actually had two. Walter joined us. Ps. all for no more than £20. I cannot indicate enough to anyone visiting Prague, pop-in and see Walter and his staff, there attention to detail and friendly service was just out of this world. Why do we not see more of this in the UK. Walter, until next time, many thanks, from the Birthday Boy from Scotland!

My two friends and I stumbled on this delightful café today and had a delicious meal of tomato soup and rye bread. The person waiting on us--who I assume is the owner-- also kept us entertained! We're sorry that we're leaving Prague tomorrow, otherwise we'd go back to try some of the other menu items and to enjoy more laughs.

This cafe became one of our favorite parts of our trip to Prague. Their pastries are delicious and we were blown away with how good the soups were. We highly recommend the hot chocolate and chai tea latte (which was the best we have ever had). The owner (Walter) was extremely hospitable and generous and helped to make our trip extra wonderful. He had great recommendations and provided us with memorable conversations. We are normally the kind of people who like to do a different cafe everyday but we loved Cafe Golem so much that we came back every morning after we first discovered it. Thank you Walter- for everything! We will definitely be coming back next time we are in Prague -Heidi and José

I loved this place! We had fun with the owner and I will be searching for the frozen (icee?) coffee in the US! I brought home a Golem cookie man but sadly he did not survive the trip home. Most fun we had in this very special city, Prague!

Small cafeteria next to the old synagogue and in the same building as the Jewish museum. Good coffee, nice sweet pastries, also for takeaway. They also seem to sell light lunch such as soups, didn't try it myself, though. There are pictures on the wall connected to the history of the area and the golem legend.
