Drinking
1 Panoptikum Jakubská 9 Bright, modern pub-restaurant with a handsome selection of draught beers and a good – if rather standard – range of Czech food. Opening time: Sun– Thurs 11am–2am, Fri & Sat 11am–4am
2 Pegas Jakubská 4 If there are any foreigners in town, it's guaranteed they'll be drinking here – and fair enough, for this is a large and very pleasant pub that brews its own light and dark beers on the premises. Also serves up a decent goulash with dumplings. Opening time: Mon– Fri 9am– midnight, Sun 10am–10pm
3 Pivovarská pivnice Mendlovo náměstí The true Starobrno experience: a pub right by the brewery itself, perfectly served 12-degree Starobrno and the rarer 14-degree Baron Trenck. The indoor bar area is a bit rough and ready, although the outdoor terrace – with wooden benches and a stage for live music – is much more of a family venue. Opening time: Daily 10am– midnight
4 Špalíček Zelný trh 12 A Starobrno pub with a solid menu of Czech pork and poultry favourites. Tables outside in summer overlooking the vegetable market. Opening time: Daily 11am–11pm
