Named after the famously hard-drinking American writer, Bukowski's is a gritty, no-nonsense Žižkov bar that has been a neighbourhood institution for years. Cheap beer, strong spirits, and a clientele that ranges from local bohemians to expats who've been in Prague for decades. The décor is deliberately rough around the edges, and that's entirely the point. It's not for everyone, but if you want an authentic Žižkov late-night experience, this is it.
