Best 8 Lesbian Bars in Prague

Time to party in one of the most LGBTQ+ friendly countries in Eastern Europe

Prague is a friendly and inclusive city that has options for everyone to find a spot they enjoy. The people are welcoming, the architecture is stunning, the bars are plentiful, and the drinks are always pouring.

The Czech Republic is one of the most liberal countries in Eastern Europe in regards to LGBTQ rights, and you can see that in the Prague nightlife. Numerous gay and lesbian bars that are scattered around the city provide a haven and safe spots for nights out for all queer people, letting all the party-goers and pub-dwellers have a fun night.

Here we have compiled a list of the best lesbian bars in Prague – we don鈥檛 recommend hitting them all in one night however. Maybe space it out over your one-week holiday, okay?

1. Jampa Dampa

Czech鈥檚 capital city is known for being especially open and accepting of the LGBTQ community, and shows that in the various places designed for those who identify as queer. First up, we have a lesbian bar in Prague 2 that features karaoke and live music.聽聽

With curved ceilings and brick archways, high-top tables and stools, and bars tucked away in the corner behind a spiral staircase, the ambiance is reminiscent of a sports bar, a dungeon, and an old castle. We like it. It鈥檚 pretty minimal and relaxed, giving a chill atmosphere that makes it easy to socialize and move around. We do recommend limiting your drinks, as managing the spiral staircase in the dim light after a few beers might be a bit difficult – trust us on this.

On Fridays and Saturdays this popular bar gets quite crowded, with mainly all girls hanging out and chatting with friends and locals they鈥檝e just met. The music is usually catchy throwbacks, playing some 90鈥檚 hits mixed in with the more contemporary Top 100 playlist.

The smaller dance floor limits the number of people that can dance, but it makes for a more intimate setting. If you鈥檙e a karaoke-fiend we recommend coming here on Wednesdays and trying out your set of pipes in the basement acoustics at the bar. Who knows, maybe your voice can snag you a date for the weekend.聽

2. Q-Cafe

Up next, we have . Although not a predominantly lesbian聽 bar, this two-floor establishment brings in lesbians and queer people alike, spread out between the smoking first floor and the non-smoking underground level.

The cool part about this space – the lower floor is free entry for those who are pushing for LGBTQ emancipation. We dig that. If you fancy reading a few pages on your night out, the caf茅 has some queer-themed literature that you can page through while waiting for your date to return from the bar. The staff is always friendly and welcoming to whoever walks through the doors, creating the mixed-atmosphere that makes this place so popular.聽

3. Termix

Back to the predominantly-lesbian venues, we have . Even though gay men also frequent this spot, you can be rest assured that there are plenty of similar-orientated women in the mix as well. This newer club boasts comfortable seating, and a smaller dance floor, making for a relaxed and intimate vibe.

With free entrance, great energy, bumping music, and affordable cocktails, we recommend this spot for a few drinks before heading to another bar or club later in the evening. Of course, if you are enjoying the ambiance, this place is open until 5 am – so you are more than welcome to stay and dance the night away.

4. Patra

Number four on our list is . Located on one of the most hipster and trendy streets in the city, you鈥檒l find this new-to-the-scene spot. Similar to Q-Cafe, this joint welcomes people of all sexual orientations, contributing to the eclectic atmosphere. This spot is separated into two sections, with the caf茅 downstairs and a multi-purpose space on the upper level.

With exposed brick, wooden tables, and minimalist decorations, the caf茅 continues the hipster trend. The cool thing about this space is the community area hosts multiple events, film screenings, and art exhibits, providing a venue to explore both day and night. Open daily from 3pm until midnight, you can come and see some art, have a few drinks, and then head to your bar of choice along this trendy street.

5. Friends Prague Bar & Club

For number five, we have something a bit different. is more of a heterosexual bar – but queer folk, don鈥檛 be alarmed. The famous 鈥淔reedom Night鈥� is one of the biggest lesbian nights in the city.

The ambiance of the venue is basically drinking beers in a cellar. The space is big enough that you never feel too crowded, modern decor, and the underground-cellar-vibe keeps you cool during the hours of dancing. The sound system here is one of the best in terms of queer clubs, and the dance floor has plenty of room to cut the rug.

Once a month, the 鈥淔reedom Night鈥� party is hosted, and hundreds of locals and tourists flock to Friends. Open until 5 am, this is the spot to go for a full night of drinks, dancing, and to meet other queer people – and to enjoy in potentially the city鈥檚 most successful lesbian party.聽

6. The Saints

Ringing in number six on this guide to lesbian bars in Prague, we have . This British-owned gay bar is right in the thick of the gay quarter in the city, known as Vinohrady. The smaller venue contributes to the homely feel and enhances any intimacy. The couches and stools make it easy to sit and have a few pints and chats while getting to know someone new.

For lesbians, Thursday is a popular night to go, thanks to the well-known 鈥淟adies Night.鈥� The friendly (and attractive) barmaids serve up great cocktails, all speak English, and are welcoming to all, creating a positive vibe that everyone can enjoy. Located just around the corner from Termix, this is a great spot to have a few pints before heading off to the club.

7. The Bourgeois Pig

A combination between a dimly-lit bar and a record shop, the relaxed space is managed by a friendly and engaging owner who will be sure everyone feels comfortable. The regular live music and comedy acts provide a different Friday evening activity than the typical bar, and although it鈥檚 not predominantly lesbian, the mix of queer people that frequent this spot make it all the more eccentric and exciting.聽

8. Darling Cabaret

For number eight on our list, we bring you some drinking mixed with entertainment. What else could you want? Situated just off of the famous Wenceslas Square, is the biggest strip club in the heart of the city. This club typically has at least two dozen girls working there at a time, keeping the variety of shows and performances ever-changing and interesting. Even though this would not be an all-lesbian venue, the specific lesbian shows and private dances could switch up your typical night of going to a gay club, and have you try something different.

Despite not being the cheapest strip club since it attracts thousands of tourists each year, the variety of shows may make it more suitable to what you鈥檙e looking to try. Plus, if it鈥檚 not your cup of tea, you can always get here for a few drinks before heading to a club afterwards – after all, the entrance fee is only $8.聽

A city for everyone

As you can see, the heart of the Czech Republic has many options for all those who identify as queer. With plenty of venues that cater to the LGBTQ community, there was no way we could list them all. Even though some bars aren鈥檛 specifically for lesbians, the inclusiveness shown in these establishments makes everyone, including heterosexuals, welcome.

For the best women-only venue, we would recommend checking out Jampa Dampa. The combination of great music, laid-back atmosphere, and all women is what makes this the most popular lesbian bar in Prague. The other locations on this list are usually a combination of gay men and lesbian women, with the occasional venue having a mix of individuals with differing orientations – and I think that鈥檚 what makes it so fun.

It鈥檚 wonderful to have safe spaces in which to feel comfortable and express yourself without judgement, with gay-only bars and clubs. However, it鈥檚 also great to have predominantly-queer bar patrons and those who identify as heterosexual all hanging out together.

After all, the Czech Republic is one of the best countries in Eastern Europe for the LGBTQ community, with most of the population supporting equality on all fronts. This acceptance and friendliness can be seen in the Czech capital city. Lesbians, gay men, transgender people, cisgender individuals – everyone can feel safe, respected, and enjoy their night out in this beautiful city.聽
