Please help to save my favourite pub!!! :(
« on: June 25, 2021, 01:18:52 PM »
U Rotundy… If you’ll ever come to Prague, this pub will be worth a visit, if it’ll still exist. Just imagine Prague – absolutely full of tourists as it usually is. But, imagine that there’s still this one magical, very affordable, stinky old-school pub located in the centre of Prague… Years ago when I accidentally marched into this pub, I could not believe my luck nor the fact that this kind of place could actually still exist in the centre of Prague!
So, it is my favourite pub indeed – this week I had lunch there thrice. It’s that kind of place where you can always go, no matter how crap you feel. All the countless hours spent there: reading books, sipping beer, doing office work with a laptop when fed up staying at work, watching ice hockey matches, having great conversations with random people and friends, having stupid drunken conversations with friends...and all that beer... Here's my and my friend's bill from yesterday's... slightly extended lunch ;D



What can you do? Sign the petition! People got upset when they heard about the impending termination of the lease for U Rotundy and created a petition. There's one pub in Prague -old school, cheap, near Prague castle- that has been saved by public petition some years ago: U Černého vola, which is also worth a visit. So everyone hopes the same might work for our dear U Rotundy...  :'(

Here's the link to the petition: https://www.petice.com/za_zachovani_hostince_u_rotudny?fbclid=IwAR0gFcmtiwGoYYAq4_OuzsE-o8JwuI7kyZ6VLFb6JkqdSxYIKaMxR2USa3o
Don't be intimidated when you see some euro amounts - you don't need to pay anything. Just scroll down to "Podepsat tuto petici": you can continue with Facebook or just simply fill in the info right there. You'll receive an e-mail, click the link to confirm it was you signing the petition. If any questions, I'm happy to help! :)

Here couple of photos of this magical place :)







Thank you for your help! :)

Váš podpis byl právě potvrzen a byl přidán na seznam podpisů.

No idea what that means but I think that's good.

Good luck!

My lad is supposed to be going to be there for the gig in October. I'll tell him to pop in for a pint.

'magical, very affordable, stinky old-school pub...'

Sounds like my kind of place!  I've never been to Prague but would love to one day. 

Sadly, so many pubs I love seem to be closing (and this was before COVID) because an atmospheric, down and dirty 'dive bar' (with great music playing) seems to be becoming a thing of the past. At least here in the UK.

So, although I may never visit this doubtlessly fine place, the petition is signed and may a great many folks I'll never meet have many fine old times there!

 ;)

Master Ray, thank you! I'll hope you'll have a chance to visit Prague one day and that U Rotundy is still where it's supposed to be... You might find me from there  :)

Fiddlesticks, perfect! Spread the word! You can tell your lad that beer's only 31 CZK there so maybe he'll stay for more than one...  ;)
