One of the better options for a proper sit-down dinner in Český Krumlov, Papa's Living Restaurant brings a more contemporary approach to Czech ingredients without abandoning the local character. The menu leans on regional produce — game, freshwater fish, locally sourced vegetables — treated with more care than the standard tourist restaurant.
The setting is pleasant: a converted historic building in the old town with an interior that manages to feel warm rather than merely rustic. Service is attentive. Prices are higher than the pub-style places but reasonable for the quality.
Worth booking ahead in summer when the town is busy.
