Cafe Savoy Prague Brunch Review 2026: Historic Ambiance & Menu

Hey there, fellow travelers!

After enjoying dinner at the Celnice Kolkovna Restaurant on our first evening in Prague, we kicked off our next morning with brunch at **Cafe Savoy** before heading to Prague Castle.

This spot frequently popped up in my searches for Prague cafes, so my curiosity was piqued. Stepping inside, I was immediately struck by the soaring ceilings and dazzling chandeliers, even before glancing at the menu. In this post, I'll share all the details: the **brunch items we ordered, the actual cost, its location, and operating hours.**

1. A Prague Cafe Steeped in History Since 1893

Cafe Savoy is nestled on Vítězná Street in Malá Strana.

According to its official website, Cafe Savoy’s story began in **1893**, though it hasn't continuously operated in its original form. The space underwent various transformations over the years, including a significant renovation in late 2001, which shaped the elegant atmosphere you experience today.

The interior style is particularly fascinating. The **building and its main interior showcase Art Nouveau elements**, but if you look up, you'll discover a grand 23-foot high Neo-Renaissance ceiling. The blend of **wood and marble finishes, coupled with the magnificent chandeliers, ornate ceiling, and arched windows,** naturally draws your gaze upwards upon entering. While often introduced as an Art Nouveau cafe, the **stunning Neo-Renaissance ceiling** truly makes a memorable impression.

2. Oysters, Schnitzel, Champagne, and Weekend Brunch Delights

Near the entrance, a large blackboard prominently features Oysters, Schnitzel, and Champagne. While this might suggest a more formal dining experience, once seated with the weekend menu, you'll find a delightful array of brunch options. With separate menus for cafe items, weekend specials, drinks, and wine, **Cafe Savoy truly caters to all occasions, from a morning coffee to a full dinner.**

3. Our Brunch Order and Prices

Savoy Breakfast (Weekend Menu)

Continental Breakfast, Eggs Benedict

Cappuccino

More than enough for two adult women – the cappuccino is a must-try!

We ordered the **Continental Breakfast, Savoy Breakfast II, Eggs Benedict, and a Cappuccino.** Our spread included an assortment of breads and butter, cold cuts of ham and cheese, a fluffy French omelet, an open-faced sandwich topped with ham and a boiled egg, and a slice of poppy seed cake. The Eggs Benedict featured savory ham and a rich hollandaise sauce. Ordering a variety of dishes allowed us to experience the diverse offerings of Cafe Savoy's brunch menu.

Interestingly, the plate holding the French omelet was etched with the number 1893 – a subtle nod to the cafe's founding year, beautifully connecting its history with our meal.

Based on our receipt from 07/25/2026 (using an approximate conversion of 1 USD ≈ 23 CZK), the Continental Breakfast was ~$12, Savoy Breakfast II was ~$20, Eggs Benedict was ~$15, and the Cappuccino was ~$5. The total came to ~$52, which did not include a service charge. Our receipt also suggested a 10% tip, amounting to ~$5. Keep in mind that menus and prices can change, so it's always a good idea to check their official menu before your visit.

4. The Patisserie Workshop and a Picture-Perfect Cappuccino

On one side of the cafe, there's a dedicated patisserie display showcasing an array of tempting desserts. Even more fascinating, if you venture downstairs, you can peek through a glass window to watch the pastry chefs at work. This setup, where you see both the finished creations and the artistry behind them, is truly unique.

The poppy seed cake included in our brunch was utterly delightful. With a full meal, bread, and a small cake all in one sitting, we could seamlessly transition from breakfast to dessert with our cappuccino. The **cappuccino itself was topped with beautiful latte art**, and even the sugar packets proudly displayed the CAFÉ SAVOY logo.
