Beer and the rules: age, streets, the bill

• 18+ only. Czech Act 65/2017 (Section 11) bans selling or serving alcohol to under-18s and to visibly drunk people. If you look young, carry ID (our advice).
• Drinking in the street. Prague bylaw 10/2022 bans it on listed streets, including 28. října, Křemencova, Na Perštýně, Rybná and Karoliny Světlé, where these venues are, and on Wenceslas Square, Charles Bridge, in the Petřín gardens and within 100 m of metro entrances. An open bottle in hand counts. Terraces, 31 December and 1 January are exempt.
• The aperitif is not free. At U Fleků the 4 cl shot waiters offer is billed at CZK 79, the pub warns. More traps in Is Prague Safe?
