Friends Bar

À propos de ce lieu Friends Bar

Friends Bar on Bartholomějská in the Old Town is the gay venue in Prague that international visitors find first and return to most consistently — a deliberate position that the bar has cultivated through English-friendly staff, an accessible location near the tourist core, and a programming calendar built around entertainment rather than sub-cultural identity. Regular drag shows, karaoke evenings, and themed events give the calendar structure and draw a crowd that is there for the spectacle as well as the drink. The bar is spread over two floors and has the comfortable capacity to absorb the tourist-heavy crowd that a Prague Old Town location inevitably generates without losing the social atmosphere that makes it work. Drink prices are low even by Prague standards. The Bartholomějská location is a few minutes' walk from Charles Bridge and easily accessible from the metro. For gay visitors to Prague who want an easy, uncomplicated, English-friendly starting point for exploring the city's scene, Friends is the correct first destination.
