2 Best Restaurants in Karlštejn, Day Trips from Prague

This traditional hunting lodge–style restaurant is the most rustic and fun of Karlštejn's eateries. To find it, follow the main road uphill out of the village about a third of a mile from town. If you've visited the castle, take the path to your left when you leave; or if walking from Beroun, you'll pass by before reaching the castle. The portions of pork, chicken, beef, and game are generous for the price. A small terrace is popular with cyclists and families in nice weather.

The best of the many touristy restaurants in the town proper, this spot is just on the upper edge of the village, not far from where the castle path starts. It also offers a nice big terrace with slight views of the castle. Decent Czech-style food, including some game and fish options, is offered on the menu. The pension can also be a comfortable place to stay if you feel like being outside of Prague for a night but close to the action at Karlštejn.
