MEDIEVAL TAVERN PÍSEK

Beer, wine, mead, or pure water will shower your dry throat in our noisy taproom. Given the fact that you are paying a visit to the Middle Ages, don't be surprised if a cheerful barmaid is bold enough to come over all familiar or if a barman makes a scene out loud. Their behaviour is a bit rough, but they're basically good people. Just make sure that you sit somewhere soft with a full stomach and see that the poorer among us leave with a few gold coins in their hands.

Whether they call you a peasant or a farmer's wife, a knight, a bandit, or riff-raff, it's not because they want to offend you. It's just that the Middle Ages aren't the same as the present.

All our barmaids, grafters, landlords, and kitchen boys wish you an enjoyable visit.
