About
Founded in 1993, the Globe Bookstore and Café is Prague’s first and best English‑language bookstore, housed in a beautiful 140‑year‑old historic building with nine‑meter vaulted ceilings. It offers a trendy café that serves premium locally roasted coffee, a comprehensive drinks menu including teas, Czech beers and a full cocktail selection, and a robust American‑influenced menu featuring burgers, salads, pastas, and a wide array of vegetarian options.
