Extremely rude staff. There are nice to Czech people and rude to tourists. Meal is not good. They don’t accept credit cards. We paid in Euro and they paid the difference in a Koruna but less than what they were supposed to. They were so rude that we didn’t bother to ask them to correct it. Don’t go there unless you are starving and nowhere else is open. It was our wedding anniversary night… If they were not so rude, we didn’t mind their poor quality food.

War ganz witzig und kurzweilig. Die Tour dauert eine gute halbe Stunde. Man wird hier von einer Multimedia-Show begleitet und geführt. Am Ende gibt es ein«kostenloses» Bier. Mit umgerechnet ca. 8 € etwas teuer für das, was geboten wird. Kann man machen, muss man aber nicht. Andere Brauereien bieten mehr.

This is a nice, commercial brewery west of the river in Prague and just south of the Anden metro station. When you first enter the visitor’s center, you can read about the history of this brewer now owned buy Molson Coors. I recommend the unfiltered which is a good beer. The premium is ok and nothing memorable. Tastings are not free, you pay for their drafts.

Very good beer. It is a pity that the beer is more expensive here than in any other pub I’be ever been in Prague… It is hard to understand since they brew the beer themselves.

Great beer. Disappointing tour. Had high hopes for the«worker’s beer» tour in Prague. In my experience, the bigger the name, the more neon lights and BS you come across; the smaller the brew, the more hands on education you get. Not true here. I think it’s because they don’t pull the type of numbers of bigger, more famous breweries, but the Staro tour is basically a digitally guided tour that doesn’t even touch the brewery. Instead, loudspeakers, animations and videos guide you through a small(although nicely outfitted) visitors center. All I can say is that at least it was only 40 minutes long, which meant you got it over quick. The audio visual presentations were pretty cool, but only if they could have been augmented with a real person talking and showing you about the brew. Even the tasting was a bit lame: 33 ml taste and if you want to try another you pay more than at a local bar for a lot less beer. Nice idea, but you could tell they wanted to make the visitor tour as cost-effective as possible. And it showed.

It’s not hosted by a human. The acting is ridiculous, but the video room is kinda neat. It’s 199 kc, and you get one free beer. It’s super touristy, but that’s OK, I guess. Various show times do the tour in various languages, so if you don’t speak Czech or English, you’re all set. It’s worth doing once to say you’ve been, but it ends up being one really expensive beer. The restaurant next door is worth your time though!

Not the best brewery tour but worth doing if you have some spare time in Prague. My friends from the US visited me for couple of days in Prague so one of the things I wanted to show them was the making of famous Czech beer(trip to Plzen wouldn’t fit into our schedule). Staropramen is the second most imported Czech beer and the website( ) said that the English tour starts at 1pm every day and costs reasonable 199CZK so we went. First thing, the address is actually Pivovarská 9, which is just around the corner from the address stated here but could be confusing for people that don’t know their way around that much. Next, when we walked in, it was kind of hard to find the ticket office. Again, as a Czech native I could read the sign of the room in the far left corner that says«Kasa», i.e. ticket office, but it’s not very thought-through for people from abroad. The tour was solely audio-visual with no actual tour guide which was a little disappointing but doable. It starts with very good overview of the brewery’s history and then leads you to the second floor where you meet virtual Mr. Paspa, brewmeister who worked at the brewery in the 30s and who invented the famous Granat version of Staropramen. Since then, the tour is more comical than educational. At one point, Mr. Paspa plays with flying hops which makes you think if he’s not high on something. The tour ends in a traditional period Czech bar where you can try one of the four beers that Staropramen makes for free. If you wish to try more, you can for additional 39CZK per glass(which is some 0.3l or so). Like I mentioned above, I’ve definitely been to better brewery tours but I don’t regret doing this one and would probably recommend it to any other foreign visitors I might have. I’m not going to do the tour with them again though :-)
