Black Angel's Bar

Staré Město


Hidden away in the vaulted cellars of Hotel U Prince in one of Prague's most crowded corners (opposite the Astronomical Clock on Old Town Square), the Black Angel pulls off the trick of seeming like a secret discovery. A cosy cluster of mirrored bars, leather Chesterfields and crystal lamps recreates the atmosphere of a 1930s cocktail bar.
