Address
Neighborhood: Stare Mesto (Old Town)
One of the oldest neighborhoods in town represents the medieval heart of Prague. It’s no surprise it is bustling with tourists every time of day. Križovnický square, overlooking Charles Bridge with Prague Castle in the background, is probably the most beautiful square in the city. Its unique historical atmosphere of gothic houses and churches, cobblestone streets and squares, and stone towers blend together with the modern era. A vast array of bars, restaurants, dance clubs, international brand shops, galleries and hotels bring life to the old city. With its charming and picturesque cobblestone streets, the nightlife and parties will surely be unforgettable.

The bar initially seemed like it would be a lot of fun. While I wouldn't exactly call this place a rock bar, they did play a good mix of popular rock songs but also some pop as well.
We arrived after some of our friends, the bouncers on the door were very friendly. When we found our friends inside one of them told me that they were told that were was a minimum of 300CZK on card payments. It's fairly close to the centre so I figured nothing of this and ensured I bought enough to take me over.
As I was being served, two women were brought their drinks and were charged 120CZK and they paid on card with no issues. When I was brought my drinks the guy behind the bar told me it came to 440CZK but the limit on cards was 500CZK. They seemingly just make this stuff up on the spot to try and get more money out of their customers which is ridiculous and they know they can get away with it when the majority of their customers are going to be very drunk. While I did accept the 500CZK charge as a one off (that's on me) I made a point of not drinking anymore while my friends were there and I left for another bar when I could.
This is a real shame as I thought the atmosphere in the bar was pretty good and could have potentially lead to a fun night even if it did get way too full with pretty much no room to move. Though with the staff essentially just making up their own amounts to charge, I definitely will not be back.
If you decide to visit Harley's please keep this in mind as it could lead to a very expensive night.

We came to the harleys bar for the music, and I have to tell that the music was good and the design of the bar also good. Then the weitress approached us and took the reservation. We wanted beer and I asked for local one. And something aside with the beer. She brought us to bottles of beer and lays in pack. We were very disappointed because we didn't realize that the beer is bottled and not draft and that the fries is in pack. So we asked her to cancel the fries and leave the beer. She got very angry and said that she already passed it through so the cancelation is impossible. For my opinion she was very rude and we ofcourse left immediately.

Never go to this place
Worst bar I have ever been to. Such bad service literally felt like they just wanted us to leave the place. We asked about some cocktails and the bartender said “I don’t like any of them so I can’t recommend you”. Very disappointing 👎🏻

Went there with two girls. Got a bit uneasy seeing the pin-up based imagery. Decided to go in anyway.
Both girls got groped, by two different guys in the span of 10 minutes. I saw one of those guys do the same to a third woman.
We decided to tell the bouncer. He reported /us/ to the very drunk guy we tried to report.
I'd strongly advise against giving money to these people.

Last time I was there, I saw there was a big fight between a girl and barmen. Then the bodyguards got involved and harshly carried her out. Later I saw the girl was outside and very angry. I heard that they sprayed tear gas on her face since she asked ‘what’s happening?’ loudly.
Anyway, it wasn’t a safe place to be. Your choice.

Group of 11 of us went into this bar on our first night in Prague and thought it was good, drink was expensive but we didn't mind as the music was great. My friend was then asked to leave and as he was walking out the bouncer pulled him so he fell on the stairs. When his sister then went to see what the problem was he grabbed her also and pulled her up the stairs. Another friend then went to help and the bouncers viciously attacked him. Another female friend was held down by her neck by the male bouncers who then pepper sprayed two of the men with us and dragged another female friend out the door by her hair. This was completely unprovoked and uncalled for. We were ready to leave and did not cause any trouble while in the club. DO NOT GO HERE! Completely unsafe and unprofessional staff.

Harley's used to be my favourite club in Prague, but I got fed up with the very rude staff, especially the bartenders, so I decided never to go there anymore. Last time I've been there, I ordered a mojito and noticed that the bartender picked up an used glass with ice and mint leftovers from a drink previously served to another client. When I asked him to use another glass and start preparing the drink from scratch, he started cursing me in Czech and sent me away, refusing to serve me.
I wish the managers would read all these bad reviews and start changing something, but I guess they really don't care. It's quite obvious that a lot of people are complaining about the staff at Harley's and sadly enough, nothing changes for the better.

I can’t believe how rude the staff are - when I was physically stopped walking down to the bar because I had my jacket on I told them I’m fine to keep it on; only to be told sternly “hand in your jacket”. When I asked if this was compulsory I was laughed at and when I asked why was aggressively told “because I said so”. I refused again out of pure principal at this point and was forced to leave, while being sworn and shouted at. Never before in any bar, club or similar establishment anywhere in the world have I ever experienced such rude, aggressive, self absorbed and needlessly provocative staff at all, let alone before I’ve even made it into the venue. I would categorically urge people not to go here if they have any desire to be served by decent human beings as it is not worthy of a single paying customer.

Went here with my wife, the bar looked interesting while walking past it and decided to pop in.
Ordered our drinks, while I popped to the toilets, my wife is in distress, she tells me the bar staff have offered free drinks in exchange for sex!!
I was shocked!! They of course denied it, and started making fun of us in front of other customers!
They then went to pull a phallic shaped object out and spat on it and started stroking it in a sexual way while looking at us!
I'm speechless! I have never ever experienced such a terrible event, worst of all, had to pay for the ordeal!
Harry's bar, you should be ashamed of yourselves!

Serious safety incident
Sep 2018 • Friends
I went to this bar for my friend's birthday in 2016 and we had a great time. But it has become dreadful! I would never recommend this place again, ESPECIALLY to girls!
I took my two girlfriends there recently as I had mentioned how fun it was. We knew it would probably be quieter on a Tuesday so we went there later at 1.30am
We went to the bar and instantly you could tell both male bartender were either drunk or high, we passed it off and tried to order drinks.
The bartender I tried to order from firmly groped my boobs over the bar. I pushed him away and he wouldn't take my order, and then whilst giving me kissy faces he proceeded to GET HIS GENTALIA OUT infront of me. Vile.
I go over to my friend to leave and her bartender was spraying her with a soda gun whilst laughing. It was shocking! It was not playful and she was soaking wet.
He didn't stop and by this point me and my friends were so upset & whilst shouting and trying to deter him, she ended up pushing some glasses off the bar & we tried to leave.
The barmen then majorly overreacted in a disgusting manner as they both grabbed her and tried to drag her, ON THE FLOOR, behind the bar. One barmen grabbed her by her arm and the other grabbed her violently by her hair and were pulling at her! NOBODY helped us, staff, bouncers or customers. She was in hysterics and felt violated, before running out. We did not come here to be subjected to this unacceptable behaviour!
Two young women should not have been physically trying to get two grown men off our friend !!! Please avoid, it was a horrific experience and the police should have been involved.
