Kavárna Pražírna, “the café roastery”, is a café in Vinohrady with its own roasting machine in the room. It roasts a short list of coffees that can be drunk at the bar or taken home, and the staff help with brewing at home. Experimental processing features on the list, including a carbonic maceration lot and a coffee co-fermented with cascara. Bags are picked up at the café or sent through the Zásilkovna parcel network.
The bar covers espresso, flat white, filter coffee, espresso tonic and affogato, with plant milks and decaf.
Everything in the bakery is made in house, from wheat sourdough bread to loupáky, cheesecakes and granola. The sourdough is baked on weekdays in small quantities and can be reserved. The counter also holds cinnamon rolls with pistachios, savoury rolls with cheddar and bacon, pastel de nata and pickled hermelín cheese, and the kitchen serves breakfast in the morning and toasties and sandwiches all day. Homemade lemonades, draught beer from small breweries, cider from Tátův sad and wine are on the drinks list. Tables are booked by phone only.
