Food and beer
Go traditional! Try Bohemian cuisine :)
Havelská Kuruna is a very popular traditional Czech dining hall. They open at 10:00 and the last meal you can get maybe at 19:40.

Bohemian cuisine is famous for the following dishes: kulajda (soup), moravský vrabec, and svíčková. And they have also great Ukrainian borshch!

Neighborhoods
These are the must-see quarters in walkable distance (except for Zizkov)
In the middle ages, this quarter was inhabited by the royal servants and the king himself. This is one of the most guarded and most popular areas to visit. The key government institutions and embassies are to be found here. However, here, you will find fewer opportunities to find a good meal compared to the opposite side of the Vltava river. If you still want to find a nice cafe/restaurant, try to find somethnig closer to Kampa island.
