Kolektiv Café & Wine Bar – Prague, Czech Republic

Overview

Kolektiv Café & Wine Bar is a cozy and stylish café and wine bar in Prague, known for combining quality coffee by day with a wine-bar ambiance in the evening. It offers specialty coffee, light meals, and a thoughtful wine list in a relaxed, contemporary setting. It’s a great spot if you appreciate places that transition seamlessly from café to evening lounge.

Why Go

• Dual personality: a high-quality café by day, wine & small plates by night
• Good selection of Czech and international wines, plus craft coffees and tasty light dishes
• Laid-back but refined environment that suits both daytime visits and after-work unwind

Menu & Format

• Café Offerings: Espresso, pour-over, filter coffee, cold brew, signature lattes, plus teas and non-coffee beverages
• Food: Light lunch options like open sandwiches, charcuterie boards, salads, and cheese plates
• Wine & Evening: Wine by the glass or bottle, small plates designed to pair with wine, tapas style items
• Service Style: Friendly table service; comfortable indoor seating, sometimes small outdoor area

What to Order

Order a well-brewed pour-over or filter style coffee for the full daytime experience. For food, try one of the open sandwiches or cheese & charcuterie plates. In the evening, ask for wine recommendations and pair with a small plate—something like cheese, olives, or light tapas. The wine list is a highlight, so explore something local or offbeat.

Atmosphere & Vibe

The space feels modern, warm, and intimate. During day, light streams in and there’s a calm café energy; by evening, dimmed lights, soft music, and wine chatter bring a more languid, social mood. It’s not overly formal, but it has an elevated charm.

Price Range

Coffee options typically range from 120–200 CZK. Light food plates / sandwiches will run in the 250–400 CZK region. Wine by the glass or bottle depends on the label—expect mid-to-upper Czech wine bar pricing for premium vintages.

Good to Know

• Location: In Prague’s city center or in one of its lively districts (verify the branch you plan to visit)
• Hours: Open daily from morning into the evening—usually closing after wine service
• Reservation: Recommended for evening, especially for groups
• Ambience Tip: Visit during transition time (late afternoon) to catch the shift from café to wine bar

Best For

• Coffee lovers seeking a café with late evening versatility
• Wine lovers wanting an approachable bar in a café setting
• Diners who prefer light plates and relaxing ambiance over heavy dinners

Writer’s Tip

Go in late afternoon—enjoy the café energy with a coffee or pastry, then stick around for wine and small plates as the atmosphere shifts. Ask staff for off-menu wine picks or local labels you might not find elsewhere. Sit near the window or along the bar to watch the space transform from day to night.
