Loving Bistro - Letná — Restaurant in Prague

I really like the Loving Hut chain, but today my girlfriend and I didn't have good experiences at this one. We went there separately, our visits were about 2-3 hours apart, and when we both went there, there was a sign up saying 'Happy Hours - 70kc per plate'. But when we got to the checkout, we were told that that was a mistake and it was actually full price (at 24kc per 100g, mine was over 200kc - not extortionate, but 3 times what I was expecting). I paid, but I kind of wish I'd just left my full plate there and said I didn't want it, now I know that this happened at least twice in one day. The sign didn't say when the happy hours start or finish.

Also the food was cold and there was a dog behind the counter. For me, for a restaurant, that's a big no-no. I like dogs, but not anywhere near where my food is being prepared.

I hope that today was just a one-off. It won't stop me going to Loving Hut... unless it...

All food is fresh & very tasty (judging by two visits on consecutive days). One may quasi build one's own meal by selecting from various pre-made dishes at the counter. Plates are paid by weight. The price is exceedingly affordable, & one will surely not leave hungry.

There is no service at the tables. Drinks are available in / from plastic bottles. The interieur is most Spartan, & hardly as tasteful as the food. Then again, the meal matters.

The atmosphere can vary greatly, depending on the clientele present. Again, it's about the nutrition, not the experience of dining. Probably not a place to go on a first date, but surely useful when simply wanting to grab a quick &...

Love this place. I heard that it wasn't this beautiful all the time, but recently it reopened after reconstruction. The food is good and filling. You pay for what you eat - it is a bistro after all. The food is affordable and you can leave spending only 80 Kč with a full tummy (but you have to pick your food right). So far the food selection was the same during my 4 visits.

The place is mostly visited by women. I go there with my colleagues from work. The cooks and bistro service are Asian. I saw only one native Czech worker there.

Overall, recommend....
