Located beautifully in the middle of the Old Town this place is a unique and inviting place of joy, especially for vegans. I love the self-serve buffet style of the cafe and the sheer range of options was amazing. It was heaven for a vegan...solo traveller like myself. I also love the paying by the weight of your plate that country life employs. I ate here like 3 times in 5 days and would happily eat there everyday if i'm honest with myself. It's hearty, healthy, filling, and affordable.More

It is a wonderful vegan restaurant in the centre of Prague; many choices, clean and delicious! We come here almost everyday during our stay in Prague. It's not that pricey. It goes by weight. We highly recommend this restaurant for veganners and non-veganners !

Contrary to most reviews here, I do not recommend the country life cafeteria. The dishes are overcooked and poorly seasoned, and I find that the value for money is higher than Loving hut, which has the same concept of a vegan cafeteria. I also find...that the dishes lack vegetable proteins to balance the nutritional intake: no legumes (kidney beans, chickpeas, lentils...) and no substitute such as tofu, tempeh or seitan. Disappointing. On the other hand, the room and the terrace are pleasant and calm. For those who love vegetarian and vegan cuisine, I would rather recommend Loving hut, Forky's, and Linh's vegan corner for a meal in the city center.More

I think we visited at an odd time as the selection looked a bit drab. It's buffet so you choose what you want based on what you think may be in it. They weigh the plate and charge you accordingly. Some of the options like...the lentil bake just tasted of pure garlic.More

Before visiting Prague I knew I was going to visit here! Lots of food to choose from, not much hot food choice but with the weather being hot in Prague it’s fine! They had the most amazing tasty soups with tofu and broccoli which I...wish I had more of! Beautiful clean place to sit. Lovely staff aswell.More

I have made a point of always visiting this restaurant when I am in Prague. It operates on a buffet style, giving you the opportunity to pick exactly what you want. There is a range of hot and cold dishes available. It is interesting that...you pay for your food by weight. The Restaurant is just a 2 minute walk from the central square. They also have a shop next door selling a range of Vegetarian and Vegan food. I believe they also operate a couple of other restaurants in PragueMore

We stumbled across this cafe on our way to the Old Town Square. Had lunch here on two days (we were only staying in Prague for three days!) Good variety of healthy, vegan food- hot and cold. Priced by weight. Would have preferred more choice...of drinks- had water on both days as didn't fancy any of the other drinks available. Did not seem to do hot drinks- would have liked tea or coffee with cake. Very busy cafe, lots of coming and going, but did not have to wait long for a table. Expected to clear away your trays and dishes- not a problem.More

Wish we had found this little gem earlier! We were really struggling to find veggie food and then we stumbled across here. We were so impressed! The food was absolutely delicious with a great variety and what we loved the most was that we could...have a bit of everything as the cost was done by weight! Perfect!! Highly highly recommend , Just wish we had one of these with as my choice in our home town!More

bustling with tourists every time of day. Križovnický
square, overlooking Charles Bridge with Prague Castle
in the background, is probably the most beautiful
