One last proper Pilsner before security in T2
This Pilsner Urquell Original Restaurant sits landside in Terminal 2, near the escalators by Burger King and directly above the Billa supermarket. It opens 07:00–21:00, so you can fit a sit-down meal and beer in before heading to Schengen departures. Priority Pass lists this exact location, which helps if you’re scanning signs in the departure hall.
Prices run high for Prague—reviews peg it at $$$—with goulash and schnitzel costing closer to Western Europe than city pubs. In return you get a full hot Czech menu plus bar snacks, not just sandwiches. Beer fans single it out because the staff actually pour Pilsner correctly, with the right head, unlike some generic taps elsewhere in PRG.
Landside T2 is the move here: regulars plan 45–60 minutes before security, eat and drink at this spot, then skip the more expensive airside bars. A common strategy is sharing one main dish and ordering a couple of half-litres to keep the bill under control. If you care more about that final Pilsner than a full meal, just grab fries or soup and treat it like a pub stop.
FindMeGlutenFree calls out a specific gluten-free menu, and reviewers note they can adapt several dishes for GF diners. That makes it useful for mixed groups where one person needs GF but others want classic dumplings and gravy. Staff usually understand "bez lepku" and can point to safer options.
Watch out for reported overcharging and billing issues mentioned in Czech trade inspections and on TripAdvisor: always check line items before you tap your card. Service slows down around big departure banks, so ask for the bill as soon as you order your last drink. Practical tip: sit where you can see the departures board for T2, then walk to security about 25–30 minutes before boarding starts.
