Gastrotourism has become a trend. People looking for authentic taste and top quality do not hesitate to travel across the country. Some enterprises have broken out of the grey average and turned into sought-after destinations. One such venue is the famous Šumava pub, U Štěpána.
Šumava native Štěpán Ruda spent his adolescence on a farm in Vojetice, which his family took care of. In 2008, Štěpán and his wife Zdeňka decided to combine family tradition with a vision of modern, yet genuine gastronomy. They opened a pub that has become a phenomenon in the course of years.
Guarantee of Fresh Ingredients
The meat comes from the family farm's own organic farming, and all the other ingredients are home-grown as far as possible. Thanks to this approach, unique delicacies are served to guests. Local culinary specialities include, for example, the unconventional appetizer of beef tongue with horseradish sauce and celery purée, while the main course menu features rump steak au gratin, cream cheese and pepper sauce, and an innovative hamburger with gorgonzola. For lovers of Czech classics, there is a traditional pork side, elevated to a delicacy with sheep cheese sauce, cabbage, cracklings and Parmesan gnocchi.
Homely Comfort Reigns Here
In addition to the refined menu, gourmets are also attracted to Vojetice by the friendly atmosphere of the pub, in which the entire family, including daughters Zdenička and Nička, are involved. Even the youngest twins, Vojta and Štěpán, are growing up with a love for family heritage and honest regional gastronomy. U Štěpána has a seating capacity of 58, with the possibility of additional seating on the glass terrace. Moreover, a separate lounge for 16 guests creates the ideal setting for corporate events, Christmas parties and private parties.
Experiential Living in a Caravan
The recently built romantic Zdenička caravan, located in the Vojetice organic farm area, just a few steps from the pub, has also had its first successful season this year. It offers guests the opportunity to extend their gastronomic experience by staying in the bosom of Šumava nature.
In the very heart of Prague, a space has been created that takes summer experiences to a whole new level. Fly Vista, a unique restaurant & bar on the rooftop terrace of the iconic Máj department store, invites you to combine panoramic views of the city, top-notch gastronomy and an atmosphere that is constantly changing throughout the day and night.
An architecturally unique building is located at an altitude where the morning mist rolls lazily over the Dolomite peaks and the air has the odour of larch wood.
From 7th to 15th November 2026, Babiččina zahrada (“Grandma’s Garden”) invites you to enjoy one of autumn’s most beloved traditions – St. Martin’s Goose. With its golden-brown skin, succulent meat and rich aroma of traditional Czech cuisine, this evokes memories of times when the whole family would gather together for a festive lunch.
