A rich “a la carte” lunch will be a welcome and well-deserved reward. Traditional Czech and international dishes are served (including vegetarian options). We highly recommend trying Czech beer, which is one of the best in the world. This restaurant is very popular with the locals and has the best reputation in Bohemian Switzerland.

In addition, we have an advantage over other guests in the kitchen, so the wait for food is significantly shorter.

Our trip to Bohemian - Saxon Switzerland - I recommended a trip to beautiful Saxon Switzerland to my friends from Prague. We contacted a professional guide and the group went to Bastei. We stopped for lunch in Vysoká Lípa and continued on a boat trip in the gorges of the Kamenice river. We were very satisfied with the organization, lunch, provided transport and service. We can only recommend. Thank you
