Reviews of The Prague Café (Coffee Shop)

Mimi W

I may never have been to Prague, but I love the food and coffee here. And the carrot cake is amazing!!! I drove 3 hours for it????

BC Valley Guy

Cozy cafe, very delicious desserts, good variety of hot drinks

Ezinara Msiska

Cost and convenient coffee shop that's very near the beach as well as the marina which makes it a great it a great spot to grab a hot or cold drink whether its before, after or during a day on the lake.

Gus Lopes

Extremely friendly and just as cozy! Lots of care is put into making the drinks and although we didn't order food everything else looked and smelled delicious. It's an added bonus that you have a beautiful view of the lake with no obstructions right from inside the cafe

Barb Wild

Good coffee and great homemade desserts

Justin Rondeel

Very friendly staff and good home cooked food. Nice view of Okanagan lake. Can take coffee out to table on the grass by the lake across street.

George Sisic

Great coffee, nice place to enjoy lake view with coffee. Person who wored was lovely and allow me to put my bike battery to change.

Anita Shuler

Geriatrics ward music was blasting and repulsive. Not much in the way of breakfast. Otherwise great location and nice looking coffee shop.

artemis houdelis

Freshly baked croissants!!! Oven-warm!! Do I need to say anything more?

Jeffrey Fry

Lovely little cafe with a beautiful lakeside view. Sandwiches were incredible and the cheese in them was at a perfect melting point. The music selection was classy and the staff was very friendly.

Awesome food, relaxing view

Brooke Cederholm

I love this place. I go every time i visit. The fruit cake is amazing

Michael Schoberth

Delicious sandwiches and decent coffee. It's nice to sit out in the sidewalk in front of the store and watch the water. I'd go back again next time I'm in town.

Onur Kurtiç

Good Coffee, best Pastries excellent service. Sometimes you have to wait a while especially when its busy. But the wait is worth while.

Roo

The best kept secret in all of Penticton!! The Prague Cafe is a family run business where the owner takes care of the cafe most days with some help from his family every now and again. He is a very friendly humble man that makes DELICIOUS food and amazing coffee. Truly a gem in Penticton, could not recommend this place more. Enjoy sitting on the chair and tables across the road from the cafe as well, it has an amazing view of the Okanagan Lake.

Thomas Coe

Dilicious fruit cake. Great services! But the chairs are too puffy, making not comfortable to sit.

Adam Schlinker

Smal place with exelect coffee and desert

Jessy Halleran

Visited here when we stayed in Penticton. Very friendly, great food and variety of hot drinks.

Andrew Brousseau

Love this place for its authenticity and old world hospitality

Beata Ćmielová

The coffee is fairly weak. If you’re looking for a great espresso or americano this is not your spot. Hopefully they change it up.

Malcolm Lamont

Morning coffee at the beach with good friend. The coffee was superb and my friend is the best!

Michael Kostashuk

Nice little coffee shop with a great view of the beach. Motorcycle friendly parking on the street out front.

Sarah Makin

Small but lots of seating outside by the lake. Good coffee and goodies.

Brett Alexander

This cafe is so cozy and nice. The owner is fantastic. Pastries are amazing- not too sweet. Love it!

Kris Snider

Beautiful place to have breakfast on the beach, breakfast menu is always a great treat. Homemade treats is always a great pick. Highly recommended to visit.

Jan Timmers (VE7JBT)

Beautiful little cafe across from a lovely little Beach on Okanagan Lake. Coffee and pastries. Local art on display for viewing and for purchase

R B

Great service. Tasty food. Amazing view right on the lake. Would definitely go back again.

Stephane Dorotich

A perfect place to enjoy a piece of carrot cake, or apple strudel, with whipping cream, and a cup of coffee. Great location by the lake, yummy desserts, friendly owners. Highly recommend.

Chris Featherston

A great little cafe with a beautiful seating area outside right next to the beach. The coffee was fantastic and man who served me (presumably the owner) was extremely friendly. I highly recommend this place and will be returning soon to try the food.

Petr Konecny

Great little cafe! Simple menu, amazing treats. Just like cafes you’d find in Prague. The Chai Latte is one of the BEST that we have had and the regular coffee is good too. You’re also aloud one refill for the coffee. Highly recommend for a quick, light breakfast!

Water Phoenix

Small, intimate cafe. Freshly prepared food

The best gingerbread loaf in Canada!

Josh M (tycrek)

Although the menu is quite limited we enjoyed our breakfast here. Nothing fancy but good eats. Plus some wonderful bakery items.

Simeon Gellert

Super nice owner and very cozy inside, can only recommend :)

Maggie S

Had a phenomenal first experience at the Prague Café! Enjoyed the continental breakfast, very European vibes- and includes coffee or tea. Incredible views of the lake and valley. Saturday and Sunday they have apple strudel! Was happy to see this breastfeeding friendly sticker outside for my breastfeeding mamas! All around great experience, fast and friendly service

Raina Dawn Lutz

We ordered two breakfasts. But they are just bread and ham. Basically, no cooking, like I buy bread and ham separately from safeway. Maybe we ordered it wrong. But a bit disappointed.

Michal Marek

Always a pleasure ???? Food, atmosphere, staff is sweet. I need to go again!!

Joshua James Daniel

Good breakfast sandwich. And coffee. Quaint little spot with A cool vibe. Good service and yes I will return. Thankyou

Steve Jothen

Try the cake

Compound One

Excellent coffee

Jim Maguire

Love the friendly owner and the wonderful coffee!!

Joe M. Brabeck

The gent running the place was indeed from Prague when I was there. For such a small place they have a lot of variety and good quality. Would recommend for grabbing a quick bite to eat or to grab a coffee to enjoy while strolling down the store.

Evgeniia Nikiforova

Lovely spot and fantastic kolac !

Hafa (Hafa)

Excellent European baked goods.

Maria Kearse

Service

Harrison Blizzard

It was tasty

Roger Huber

Wasp season Otherwise 5 stars

April Janele

Micheal and staff are very friendly and they know what customer service means. Their lunches are very delicious and they have the best Chai Tea Latte in town! During the summer you can even sit outside in the park across the street and the food comes to you! A must go to place in Penticton.

A.A S

Lovely place, friendly staff, and fairly decent food. However, for the price, you would expect excellent food (and coffee) and it isn't quite there.

Daven Tai

best view and cakes in town/ easy to park

Annalisa Barnett

Cozy Cafe. Excellent food and the view is amazing. Great spot to stop and warm up when enjoying a winter walk along the beach. Be sure to try the fresh baked strudel!

Patricia Tribe

Spent a wonderful morning here watching the snow fall over the lake, listening to classical music, sipping a lovely London Fog. If you are looking for a delightful alternative to the stiff, characterless chain coffee shops, thus is it. I highly recommend it. Also excellent baked goods.

Keanna Harris

Great food & drinks!!

STEPHEN WARD

Great tasting baking and peaceful by the lake

Kristina Murphy

their hot chocolate is something i look forward to every time i come here, baked goods are great as well <3 and really wonderful guy working there always so pleasant.

K E

Very European feel to this coffee shop. Often there is a bit of a wait, but the food is always prepared with care and attention and well worth any wait. Love the rasberry lemonade. Order to go and walk across the street and eat at the picnic tables.

Paul Sawetzki

Best kept secret in town!!

W Anders

Small cafe with homemade European style foods Very good

Michal Utko

Very nice place

Kyle Goulet

Amazing baked snacks and excellent coffee located right on a beautiful quaint okanagan beach.open all year round.very busy spot in summer and more quiet and relaxing in winter

Gery Fung

Honestly kind of disappointed after seeing how good the reviews were. The lady taking my order seemed uninterested and a bit annoyed. We ordered the ham and cheese croissant sandwich and it was mediocre. Not sure what everyone else is seeing but I was underwhelmed.

Garrett Headley

Great little hidden gem in Penticton. Tasty European style pastries, not unnecessarily sweet.

audrey zambon-farrant

Small/quaint place, with limited yet delicious menu. Coffee and latte were mediocre,but acceptable. Location of this place is great, right off the beach. There is limited outside seating, and the 80's Italian pop music gives you a Euro feel ????

Ardy Mann

On the southern coast of the Okanagan lake, this small European-style café is an amazing place to start your day. They bake delicacies in house that go wonderfully with the coffee they serve.

Terry Vandament

Location, friendly atmosphere and good food.

Maksym Andriienko

The mocha and apple streusel were mediocre at best. Quite disappointing

brian strangman

I love it great service

Best Success At Home

Very small great service

Melissa Binnema

Everything you can imagine from the name, and more. Owner is from Prague, and definitely took a piece of culture and music along with him to the lake shore. I was a weary traveler, and warmly welcomed here.

Mark Peeren

We loved their baked goods! Very good coffee and also we tried delicious soup. Owner and staff are very nice, thanks for your hospitality!

Wallace The Collector

Great place for a coffee and snack. Awesome seating on the lawn facing the lake and lots of room to socially distance.

Bert Koehl

(Translated) Delicious cake and very good coffee. Nice and very friendly owner !! (Original) Leckerer kuchen und sehr guter Kaffee. Netter und sehr freundlicher Inhaber!!

Bradley Stauber

Love the carrot cake. It has nuts, raisins n carrot in it. Not too sweet.

H Isabella (CanadianTraveller)

Great place. Right across the road from the lake. They have Muskoka chairs to sit in.They have several different foods and beverages. I think they are made in house? Just a good place to stop..and have a coffee.

STUDIO FEMME

Had the combo ... potato soup with deli turkey sandwich. Due to covid 19, no choice but to sit outside. Although it was a bit windy, the view of the lake was great and the food was good.

Outand About

Lovely little European style coffee shop/cafe in a beautiful tucked away location. Great selection of fresh baked goods. The carrot cake is delicious! Grab something to go and/or sit outside to enjoy the spectacular view.

Monika Pavlickova

Great cake!

Vladimir Medakovic

Breakfast

Tyler Andreasen

Fantastic coffee and baked goods, great view, friendly service. What more could you ask for?

Wayne Smith

Hidden gem is correct ! Incredible food and drinks and a nice little vibe. Love it.

Timothy Scutt

The perfect breakfast in a quaint cafe by the water. Busy little shop! We came in just at the right time as people lined up to order and continued to line up as we enjoyed our breakfast. It does feel like a european experience and exactly what we needed to finish off an enjoyable long weekend.

Martin de Graaf

Good coffee shop always friendly

Butch Priester

Feels like you're actually in Prague for a sweet moment ❤

David Haycock

Love this place. Good strong coffee and generous portions of house made baked goods (the fruit cake is my favourite). The owner seems to live there, consistently offers friendly service, and always insists you have whipped cream on your cake. The best.

Joshua Hackett

Go here after every cycling ride. Baked goods are so good and always fresh with fresh whip cream. Love the coffee and you get one free refill. Micheal is always friendly and happy

Matt Zahatnansky

This small coffee shop is located a little off the beaten track, but that is exactly what makes it so appealing after a long walk along the lake shore. Besides indoor seating, across the street there are chairs where one can sit and take in a view the lake.

AUTOT3K HCL

Absolutely always loved this place! The owner is kind of food and drink is always great the view is amazing. I hope there are there for many years to come I love the Prague Cafe!

Laura Elena

Great latte, yummy fruit pie, very friendly owner/staff and what a wonderful view! Feels so cozy and welcoming that we went there twice during our visit to Penticton.

Alana Simpson

Excellent little cafe in Penticton! They have a fantastic European style breakfast and delicious sandwiches. The potato soup was amazing! We ended up buying way more food than we thought because it all looked so good. We also had fresh, melt in your mouth croissants and fresh baked apple strudel and strawberry rhubarb cake. View is awesome with chairs on the lawn by the beach and super hospitable owner. Highly recommend.

Lucy Slocombe

Ordered two milkshakes they were 5$ each just milk and vanilla way to sweet and liquid texture

The Prague Cafe is a hidden gem, awesome baker/owner. Outside seating within steps to beach. Some prices a little higher than usual, but the quality & service make up for it.

Joe Gerl

Delicious food, amazing coffee, and gorgeous views of Okanagan lake.

Caroline Allain

Great little spot. Great food and service.

Great coffee stop....thankyou..????

Robert McKenzie

Great coffee ☕

Toro Garland

Love it!!! Every time I am in the neighborhood I make sure to stop by. Lovely spot, great coffee, great european pastries. It has become a Penticton Landmark.

Wendy Allan

When you walk in off the beach you are taken aback by how awesome the location of this place is. As soon as we walked in we saw the owner chopping up some of his fresh streusel on the table. We walked up and asked for two small lattes, and were asked if we wanted one of the fresh pastries. I really liked that because I was not thinking of buying one but I have to give it a try if its his specialty. The streusel was awesome! But the coffee could use some work. The milk was a far to hot for the drink to be drinkable, and the coffee itself had a bitter taste to it. If they were to switch up the coffee provider, and work on some barista skills this place would be a five star spot.

Shana Williamson

This is a great spot to have a coffee and a light lunch on the beach.

Dylan Sandkuhler

Discovered this wonderful cafe by accident. Has some of the best food I have tasted and some amazing desserts for after.

Steve Ash

Great Czech Cafe w/ wonderful food.

Scott Beaumont

Good coffee but it's not quite hot enough for me. Nice selection of baked goods but you have to go early as the food tends to run out before they close.

Eric Kutschera

Ideal spot for a bite to eat and a coffee while taking in the awesome views.

Karen Yip

The Prague Cafe is really nice and pleasant place to enjoy your coffee. It has a good atmosphere, great service and a huge selection of coffees, milkshakes and cakes. You can enjoy American muffins but you can also taste very delicious cakes from Czech Republic such as a tradicional "babovka" or apple strudel. If you want to discover something different, The Prague Cafe is the right choice for you.

Patty Wadson

Great little place that not everyone knows about, love the atmosphere but coffee could use a little work.

Kurtis Robinson

Friendly little shop to grab a coffee and run, or simply enjoy the view.

Rod McLean

Lovely coffee shop with great treats.

Linda Hawes

We had the most amazing breakfast there. Highly recommended!

Stacey Salvati

Beautiful, small, family run operation. The owner is a really nice guy.

Vilairat J.

A bit of a frustrating experience, but the peach cake, mmm... why did it have to taste so good when all I really wanted was the plum!? -- "Mimi's Cake Tour"

Jody D

Micheal is an outstanding business owner. The simplicity and richness combined with his affordable prices and welcoming atmosphere are more than enough reasons to keep coming back. This has quickly become mine and my friends favourite place to grab a snack or coffee as the foods excellent and you sure can’t beat the view. 10 outta 10 would recommend!

Sergey Univ

Must try it..;)

Dylan

Fresh food but too pricey

SY C

Excellency family take out restaurant. Had great hot chocolate and strudel and ate them on the lawn across from the beach . Wonderful

Tina Gribby

Very small restaurant great for morning coffee or lunch

Evan Moore

Nice place right on the waterfont with beach seating and excellent view. The service was friendly and baked goods looked great. I had a Rhubarb Peach cake with whipped cream, quite tasty:)

evan baehler-lacroix

Dine in

Lauren Greenwood

Good Euro style coffees and home baking is delish.

Alan Garner

Excellent

Dwayne Beckerleg

Amazing home made cakes and delicious soups! Friendly atmosphere and great view to the lake. Don't miss if you are visiting Penticton.

Paul Lewis

Best coffee and apple strudel in town Lake front chairs and tables make a great spot for a relaxing lunch or coffee break during the warm days.

Karen Amirault

Delicious food and friendly service!

Scott Baker

The owner here is extremely friendly. This place feels like a hidden gem in penticton away from all of the tourist traps. It’s prices are extremely reasonable and has a great view of the lake ! Make sure you try the fruit cake.

Jean Clarke

Quirky little cafe, great cakes and pastries

Cam Atkinson

Awesome little cafe! Amazing cakes ! :)

Wendy Kum

After visiting I have to say that the 4.5 rating is misleading...the food was decent, but the decor is looking tired and the service seemed indifferent... Not a bad spot, just not a 4.5.

Tim Binnema

Cozy and comfy. Great place for a meeting with friends.

Rob Herron

Great coffee shop

Denise Laf Loowell

Found this hidden gem last week in Penticton. It’s customary to say Dobrý den as a greeting when you arrive and sample the typical Czech koláč and pastries! You will be greeted with a smile! It’s a little bit of Europe in the Okanagan!

Neo He

I ordered a cappuccino and got a bowl of steamed milk with some foam and a little bit of coffee. The espresso pours from a machine and their portions are way too large to maintain any flavour of the coffee.... Although that might be what they want since it's a machine that does it. I imagine this place gets by with the baking and large portions for coffee but it's a far shot from good coffee. That being said, the owners and staff seemed real nice and friendly and there are regulars at this place. Maybe I've become too much of a coffee snob but don't go for the coffee. Go for the view and the baking.

Kyle

Wonderful food and drinks. Excellent service.

Rebecca Petrunia

Good food, very cool little eatery near the lake. Unusual but delicious breakfast!

Don Hamata

My friend and I found this cafe after hungrily walking out of a clearly popular (but noisy and packed full) nearby breakfast spot. So glad we found Cafe Prague! The delicious coffees, buttery croissants, and a quiet atmosphere made us feel like we were in Europe. When the owner asks if you want cake or strudel, the correct answer is "yes"! Cafe Prague will be our go-to breakfast spot next time we visit Penticton.

Gerhard Werenka

A very cute and small cafe with simple yet delicious food served from it! The old lady was sweet and very kind too! I wish she has someone who can help her around the shop though.

Erin

Always great coffee, soup, sandwiches and desserts. Michel is very obliging!

Tad Desimone

Quaint café with good prices

Linda Wilson

Little Vienna. Raspberry lemonade and the best Marina Beach view.

Patrick field-robinson

Great place and pastries, missed the strudel, have to get there earlier. But the carrot cake was delicious. Try it !
