Petrin Tower Not technically in the tower, we had an unidentified draft pilsner from the kiosk in the park at the bottom.
Last visited May 2004
 
Pivnice Radegast Excellent food in this beerkeller-style restaurant.
I may have got the name wrong, as it translates to Radegast Brewery - a bit like calling an English pub John Smith's because that's what the big sign on the front says!
Last visited May 2004
 
Pizzeria Arena A wide range of draft beers including Starobrno in this large basement pub/club/restaurant. Totally devoid of atmosphere early in the evening, but we had a very nice pizza. Later it's a disco and they charge entry.

Zlata Konovice At ground level a tiny plain modern bar, but three or four storeys below is a large restaurant and bar serving Pilsner Urquell and food that looks good. The diners were having an international singalong with the violin and accordion when we were there. Becharovka, a traditional local drink, tastes of cloves. YUK!
