More expensive than expected

Nice buffet style ina very central place. Happy hour 4PM to 6PM with 35czk while regular price is 45czk. It's fine but more expensive than other vegan buffet places. On the upside the variety is excellent but the food is hit or miss. Also some dishes were lukewarm, while others were ok. Nice space with wooden benches and plants. The space is self service with regular cleaning of the tables. The personnel is very polite. Also free water and wc for customers (nice, clean toilets as well👍).

Pros: Variety, Nice and quiet space, Cake

Cons: Pricy for buffet food, Food is hit or miss

Good for a comprehensive meal

The place is spacious and cute. Nothing special when it comes to food taste, but it's a convenient place if you want to eat different types of food and have a complete plant-based meal for little money. I just wish the choices from the salad bar were labelled since some of the ingredients and toppings are hard to distinguish.

Pros: Great choice of food, Nice for price-value, Good location in the heart of the city center

Cons: Lack of labels

Convenient and quick

Located in town center so very useful for quick bite while touring
Buffet style pay by the weight.
Next door is store that has premade sandwiches if that’s easier on the go.
Not wow but works.

Pros: Location, Convenient

Cons: Lack of choice for non vegan

I don’t recommend.

I don’t get the hype.
Mediocre food at best (and I’m being generous) at above-average prices. There are far better options in the area.
I recommend skipping it.

Knocked our socks off!

Initially we were confused upon entering if it was truly a buffet experience, but indeed it is once you go to through the back.

I don't go to buffets often and found myself piling up my salad plate at the beginning just in case the mains weren't exciting.. of course I was wrong.. everything was amazing. Today there was a delicious pan style pizza bread, delicious pesto zucchini and lovely roasted pumpkin.

Truly this place is extremely healthy and nutritious, more than most restaurants. They are extremely generous on the amount of toppings and in general, choices you have every single day.

Their vegetables are cooked perfectly, the soup temperature is also just right. Everything is packed with flavor and you will leave full as a tick.

Easily my favorite place in Prague, and you should not skip it...

Their lattes are also yummy!

Pros: So much variety

Countrg Life Cafe

Biscoff Cheesecake (?Kč) / Chocolate Chip Cookie (?Kč)

Es gibt auch ein Restaurant, das ich gerne besucht hätte, aber man kann ja leider nicht alles probieren. Schlussendlich habe ich von ihrem Cafe 2 Nirvana Schokos und Wafffelröllchen gekauft, dazu den Cheesecake und den Cookie. Der Cheesecake war der beste late night snack seit langem und wahrscheinlich der beste Cheesecake jemals. Mit Biscoff hat man mich ja sofort, aber auch die Creme konnte definitv was. Cookie war gut, kann man nicht viel mit falsch machen

Their sandwich made out of tempeh was very good and cheap. I was happy to find a fully vegan place in such a touristic area. The lady working there was nice!

Pleasantly surprised!!

Wow, I did not expect that. So this is a great restaurant to come to if you want to eat clean & healthy food. There’s plenty of choices, with a salad counter & TWO hot food counters. There’s also an impressive selection of cakes & smoothies/juices etc.
everything is paid for by weight which is a different concept for me but works well. All the food was really fresh & I know it was going to be good judging from all the healthy looking locals that appeared to be regulars in there.

Pros: Beautiful & spacious restaurant. Nice surroundings, Great selection of both hot & cold food. , Food all fresh & healthy. Can pay by card

Cons: Not a great deal of English on menus

Buffet style with great salad selection

There wasn't much on the hot side due to the time I visited as soon as it opened, but what I had was very tasty. There is a large cold selection of veg and salads.

I didn't realise it was pay by weight, I thought it was per plate so I piled it high and got stung at the counter haha 🤦

Pros: Buffet style, Cheap

Glad to see this place is still open

We came here on a family trip years ago, when there weren’t many vegan restaurants so I’m really pleased to see it’s still in business. Next time I’m in Prague I’ll definitely be making a trip.

This place had so many options, many healthy ones and affordable. The decor wasn’t anything fancy and the food was laid out like a school canteen but the food was delicious and I’m still remembering it 5 years later.

Consigliatissimo!

Locale davvero molto accogliente e informale con personale carinissimo dove abbiamo avuto il piacere di pranzare purtroppo una volta sola.
Il menù cambia di settimana in settimana (lo trovate sulla loro pagina Facebook o affisso alla porta del locale). Componete il piatto a vostro piacimento e pagate a peso. L’acqua è gratuita.

Exactly what we needed

Jumped off the train in Prague and was absolutely starving! Headed here first and loaded up our plates with a massive variety of all vegan food which tasted good and felt great eating and settling in our stomachs. Recommend the pesto pasta and the potatoes if they’ve got ‘em when you go in. Super cheap meal for 2 by European vegan standards, would do again absolutely!

Pros: Pesto pasta, Potatoes, Low price point

Love all of the info!
Do you happen to know if they had gluten free options?

Squizsh

10 Dec 2024

Howdy Courtney! With my partner and I being people who don’t have a gluten intolerance, we typically don’t think about that when looking for food. There is however a really nifty alternative supermarket attached to this cafeteria which stocks loads of vegan/dietary products, I bet they’ll definitely have something for you! :)

Delicious organic buffet

My vegetarian colleague and I had lunch here and both had several dishes from the buffet, and she also had a bowl of soup. There are sooo many things to choose from that you truly are spoilt for choice! Everything we had was delicious and we absolutely loved it. You taste the good and healthy ingredients, and although it is a buffet, everything tasted fresh and not too oily.

I could hardly believe that we were right in the centre of Prague since the space was so calm and down to earth.

Many healthy options buffet style

I’ve been to Prague twice and this place seems to be the OG vegan spot. They have a buffet style set up so you can pick and choose what you want.

Nice and simple vegan cafeteria

Spacious 100% vegan cafeteria in the old town (great location in the ground floor of an old building), with superb salad bar, 2 soups and a few main dishes changing daily, and a few desserts. All tasting good. Friendly staff, fair prices, outdoor seating (3 tables). Free water from the tap.

Pros: Fabulous salad bar, Friendly staff, Fair prices

Cons: No alcoholic drinks

OMG!!! You have to go

I literally cannot believe how good this place is. The food was amazing, well priced and sooo much choice! So many desserts too! Staff are nice and helpful. So great to be able to get a healthy, hearty meal whilst travelling!! They also have takeaway boxes if you’d prefer and reusable Tupperware for sale. Location is so convenient.
