You know the situation where you’re eating with friends and you just cannot agree on what to get? Thanks to The Backyard that’s a thing of the past!

If you’re looking for delicious food from all corners of the world in the heart of Prague then this is your place. Conveniently located in downtown Prague close to the metro and tram lines, this is the ideal place to meet up with friends for some delicious food.

At The Backyard Kotva, you will find what looks like a “container town” of a bunch of black containers next to each other. But once you get up close you’ll see all the delicious types of food from India to Greece and all the way to Hawaii.

These types of food markets have been getting increasingly popular in Prague with the Manifesto Market opening up not one but two locations - and now Backyard Kotva as well. Since the vibe is so fun and joyful it makes sense to want to eat outdoors at a hip place like this that serves delicious food.

  • The Backyard Kotva just opened during the spring of 2021 so go check it out before it becomes too popular!
  • Food trucks and food markets have become quite a popular 21st-century activity. With artsy, delicious, and different food we may continue to see food markets just keep popping up and growing.
  • Prague has three container food markets in the city where you can get tapped beer and a variety of food all while sitting outside: The Backyard Kotva, Manifesto Florenc, and Manifesto Anděl.
