Country Life Store and Restaurant, Prague, Czech Republic

There are multiple locations, but the easiest I have found to access is located by the Old Town Square in Prage 1. The store offers organic and specialty items including soy yogurts, meat alternatives, vegan cheeses and spreads, cookies, pasta sauce, cereal, etc. As with most grocery stores in Prague, if you do not bring your own bag, you must pay for a bag if you need one. It may cost a little more than other grocery stores, but that's to be expected for an organic/specialty store.

The restaurant is located just around the corner behind the store. It is vegetarian, so if things aren't marked you may need to ask what items are vegan. The setup is cafeteria style and can be done for dine in or take out. You walk through the line and choose your own portion sizes from the salad bar and hot food items. These are paid for by weight. Drinks are desserts usually have designated prices per item. The food is good and always varies. The seating area is located around the corner from the cashier, and if you're nice, you bus your own table. If you are in Prague, both the restaurant and store are worth a visit.
