If you are looking for a bar to watch to live sport with English commentary, then you have come to the right place. While many local Czech bars will have a TV in the corner showing limited live sports, as a lot of them don't have cable TV and the commentary will definitely be in Czech. Here are our picks for the best sports bars in Prague. Prague is one of the last major cities in Europe to allow smoking in bars and restaurants but for not much longer as a complete smoking is coming into law on May 31 this year (2017). In preparation for this, a lot of bars and restaurants are already non-smoking.
