About
Old Slavic Cuisine is a celebrated chain of historic restaurants located in the heart of Karlovy Vary. Each venue embraces the spirit of medieval hospitality, featuring authentic stone ovens fueled by oak wood— the same tandoor‑style fires used by ancient peoples— and offering a menu of traditional Slavic fare: succulent shashlik, communal dumplings, fresh buckwheat porridge, and the signature homemade bread. The restaurants also double as brew‑pubs, serving unfiltered, unpasteurized Karlovy Vary Starý hrad beer in light, dark and half‑dark varieties, giving guests a taste of a brew that has barely changed since the 12th‑century origins of Czech beer. The ambience is simple yet elegant, with granite, wood and crystal accents, soft music, and even a waterfall in one of the older halls. Dining is affordable – the average starting price is around 4 CZK – making it a popular choice for locals and tourists alike looking for hearty, historically inspired meals in a relaxed atmosphere. Guests can also enjoy a unique beer spa in the nearby European Center for Natural Beer Baths, adding a playful twist to the traditional dining experience.
