The name of this place can tell you a lot about what you’re going to experience: Šlágr in Czech means traditional popular music from the olden days. That’s exactly how you’ll feel when you step into this first republic (1918-1938) themed coffee shop. The ambiance, the soundtrack, the décor, every detail makes you travel back in time.
They cover the basics: good coffee, ham and eggs or sausages for breakfast, but the true highlight is their desserts. In Šlágr you can find the Czech classics, all homemade, following the original recipes.
I’m no Sacher cake expert, but the one served here is the best I have ever tasted, with a decadent amount of chocolate and apricot jam.
While you’re at it, head down to krymská street to explore its many options.
