Country Life - Melantrichova

L atmosphère ressemble plutôt à une cantine mais la nourriture est bonne. Un choix relativement varié mais comme il y avait un peu de monde il a fallu choisir vite. Nous avons pris un buritto et une pizza avec des entrées. Tout était bon

Ambiente accogliente ed informale, ampia scelta nei cibi. Tutto ciò che ho assaggiato era di notevole qualità e gustoso, veramente complimenti. Ottimo anche il prezzo.

My partner and I spent 3 days in Prague enjoying the beautiful city, eating drinking and loving it. Of all the vegan places we tried, this one is the best in our opinion. Great buffet with lots of different styles. Beautiful decor and friendly staff. Please support this place!

This is certainly one of my favorite vegan restaurant, though it costs a little bit more and is located in city center, which means there is always a lot of people there.
The food is so worth trying, because finally it is not fried burgers, fatty sauces or mushroom dips for bland rice-pasta. You can get there amazing rice noodles with vegetables, bulgur, quinoa, all sorts of rices, beans, cooked veggies, salads, side foods, patties. All lovely and tasty.

The food didn't taste like anything despite one salad(?) that was full of hot spice.

Buffet food is usually not as good as a la carte, I get it, but this was utterly disappointing. The food was just blah :/

Have eaten there a bunch of times in the last year and can recommend it for lunch and take out, especially when eating with a group as the place has something for everyone!

To my knowledge the food is not entirely vegan though, unless there has been a recent change to not using dairy.

Not the best place at my opinion but its not bad

Love, love, loved this place! To me there is no greater place on earth than a good vegan buffet, and what a vegan buffet this place was. Salads! Mock meats! Pizzas! Sausages in pastry! My friends, it was all there, and you could load your plate high for under 5 Euro.

It's a great location, right in the centre of the Old Town, so you can visit it in the middle of your sightseeing tour. The salads were fresh & there was a huge variety, and every day there was a different selection of hot foods. I had tofu & mushrooms one day, mock meat in pepper sauce the next, all with a huge mound of salad of course. The place even sells raw ice-cream!

If this place were in my hometown I would go there every week, no question about it. This place is a good solid choice. Would definitely recommend it to others.

I have been coming back to Melantrichova's Country Life every time I'm in Prague. Unpretentious and tasty food that definitely won't leavy you hungry, suitable for a smaller budget, and a nice casual atmosphere.
The pay-per-weight buffet offers both warm meals and fresh salad bar, bread is a few crowns extra, and there are also vegan desserts and coffee available.

I visited Country Life in Melantrichova twice during my last visit to Prague and I was really glad I found this place. It's a buffet, you choose and put your food on your tray and pay at the counter according to its weight. Most of the dishes were really delicious, apart from one veggie pancake which turned out to be rather dry and bland in taste. But otherwise, I found it delicious.

What's also important - the eatery is situated in the very centre of Prague (2 minutes away from Mustek metro station) and the prices are low for this location - you will pay between 120 and 200 crowns for a really satisfying meal.

You can also get free filtered water, as much as you like. The staff are friendly and eager to answer questions, especially the cook, a really warm lady. I'm just not sure if she speaks English ;)

All in all - to good place to remember about when your looking for a healthy lunch in a city whose cuisine doesn't favour anything meet-free ;)

Great buffet style restaurant, amazing food, I can't complain.

Located in the Old Town of Prague, we chose it for our first dinner in Prague as we were in that area. When we arrived it was almost closgin time, so they had an offer and the food was cheaper. But it was also a bit cold and looked like leaftovers. We chose a bit of everything but we weren't sure what each dish was, nothing looked familiar to us.
Overall, the food was ok, not very impressive but not bad. Good for the price, Prague is cheap and so was this place. We ended up full and satisfied but we didn't really want to go again the next time as it was not outstanding.

I'm really surprised all the positive reviews this place has gotten. I mean don't get me wrong, it's not all that bad but not all that great either. I found most of the food to be barely warm, and rather tasteless.
Maybe I just got unlucky and came here on an off day.

A side note, it is the exact same setup to a vegetarian restaurant in Ottawa called The Green Door. I mean it's uncanny the resemblance!

This place... just fantastic. It's tucked away next to the health food store and easy to miss even though it's in a busy area. Great buffet with tons of variety and a nice mixture of Asian and Czech specialities. Outdoor and indoor seating. From conversations with the cooks, it seems that basically everything is vegan here. Wish they were open till late!

This is a good place to go when you want vegetarian food in fast, buffet style. It isn't for presentation or finesse but good for a quick lunch.
I am not a fan of mock meat and there is a fair bit of that but it can be avoided. It is more a large volume place than anything finer but that's ok. Just don't be expected to feel like "wow, that was a great meal" after it.

the place and food is pretty good, but just for a simpel dinner from a buffet. doesn't have much extra too offer, then the rest

Great place, food is cheap and filling.
Also, the location is awesome, centre of Praha.
