The James Joyce

Overview

The James Joyce is a cornerstone of the Prague social scene, operating as the city's first and longest-running Irish pub. Since pouring the first pint of draught Guinness in the Czech Republic in 1993, the establishment has maintained a reputation for its cozy, authentic atmosphere. Located in the heart of Prague, it serves as a central hub for sports fans, offering consistent coverage of events like the Premier League, Rugby Union, and Formula 1. Beyond sports, the pub is well-regarded for its weekly Monday night quiz, which draws teams of up to six people for a competitive evening. Guests can also enjoy a daily lunch menu featuring traditional dishes such as leek soup and crusted pork tenderloin, alongside a specialized cocktail menu that offers fifty percent discounts every Thursday. It is an ideal spot for those seeking a laid-back, community-focused experience whether they are local residents or visitors looking for a taste of home.
