Kavarna 'Oplatka' on Panska Street is a quiet spot for those looking to step away from the busier corners of Cesky Krumlov. This small café draws a steady mix of locals and travelers who appreciate well-crafted coffee and a relaxed, intimate setting. The space itself feels cozy and unpretentious, with a touch of old-town charm reflected in the décor and the warm welcomes from the owners.

It’s a place to linger over a drink rather than rush through — whether you’re sipping a carefully prepared iced coffee or a refreshing gin tonic in the warmer months. The option to sit outside appeals particularly on sunny afternoons, providing a gentle buzz of street life without overcrowding. Customers often stop in for homemade cakes alongside their drinks, with flavors like honey cake with walnuts earning nods for pairing nicely with the coffee.

The atmosphere is naturally calm, making it a good choice for anyone wanting to read, chat quietly with friends, or simply watch the slow pace of life in this historic neighborhood. Even during slower hours, the owners remain attentive and engaging, adding a genuine layer of hospitality that turns a simple coffee run into a welcoming visit.

Given the pricing, it’s suited to those who value quality and a personalized experience over grabbing a quick cup on the go. Evening visits can feel particularly chill, with fewer crowds and a chance to enjoy herbal teas served thoughtfully alongside extras like fresh lemon and honey.

For locals and travelers alike, Kavarna 'Oplatka' offers an authentic slice of Cesky Krumlov’s café culture — a space to pause, enjoy something hand-made, and soak in the kind of comfortable atmosphere that comes from genuine connection rather than tourist hustle.

I found it by chance during a walk and haven't regretted it. Good coffee, homemade cakes, a unique ambiance, and friendly owners. I'm looking forward to my next visit when I'm back in town.

Really nice lady, we walked in during slow season at 9pm and she was very attentive and happy to help serve us. We got a hot fresh leaves mint tea and she brought out a giant jar of honey and lemon/lime slices with it. Very chill vibes. She’s got a little shop out front too.

If you're near the square and looking for a cozy, artistic café, this place is a must-visit. The atmosphere is warm and inviting, perfect for relaxing or catching up with friends. Their drinks are as beautiful as they are delicious—whether it's a refreshing lemonade served in a charming glass, or their perfectly layered lattes in elegant glasses. Every detail shows the café’s attention to style and presentation. A perfect blend of charm and flavor! A definitive hidden gem!

A good place for coffee, noone was there except us. The place is nice and it would be even cozier if they don't allow parking vehicles inside. Coffees were delicious and complemented with small pieces of some pie, which we enjoyed as well. Additionally, they gave us warm waffle for free. They accept cards!

This place is not to be missed. The husband wife duo add so many special touches to what feed you order. You feel special. The place itself is decorated with such detailing. I fell in love with it. Mojito is a must to order
