Pinocchio

Pinocchio is the kind of gay bar that every neighbourhood gay scene needs alongside its flagship clubs — a local, unpretentious, sociable venue where the regulars know each other and where visitors can quickly feel like regulars themselves. The location at the Vinohrady-Žižkov border puts it slightly off the main Náměstí Míru circuit, which contributes to its local character: people come here because it is their neighbourhood bar, not because they found it in a guide. The bar is gay without being specifically fetish, bear, or leather-oriented — a general social bar for gay men and gay-friendly guests. The prices are low, the atmosphere is warm, and the Seifertova address is walkable from the main Vinohrady venues. Pinocchio is the bar you end up in after Termix has closed, or the one you go to first when you want to start the evening slowly with people who already know each other.
