Ten Things To Do Cheaply In Prague.
1. Camp. We stayed at Sokol Troja camping. The showers were rubbish but we could use a kitchenette so we didn't use up our own gas.
2. Tram. Driving in the city looked a nightmare. Although our legs did get a proper work-out over the three days there. Especially as it was unusual that we knew where we were going.
3. Live Music. There were three groups of entertainers in the square at once on Thursday. One consisted of four men on stilts trying to dance and some musicians. A band on the Charles IV bridge did a super Frank Sinatra impression.
4. The Clock Tower. Better than any map.
5. The Castle. Quite a long walk but not good on the details unless you surreptitiously join a tour.
6. Avoid the Square. We found a great bar where cocktails were about £4 (half the price of a beer on the square) and we even got some free ones from the barman.
7. Ice-Cream. Seems very cheap in the Czech Republic. I tried mango and caramel flavours.
8. Siam Orchid. The Thai restaurant hidden away. Meal for two, including drinks, £20.
9. Beer. From the supermarket. Wide variety, none of which I understood, all pretty fair and less than £1 a bottle (50cl).
10. Walk. At night. Gorgeous.

Sounds like Prague would be a good place to visit especially as you've recommended a cocktail bar!
