THE world’s poshest Starbucks is located on top of ancient castle and offers remarkable views of the city.
The hidden gem can be found within the confines of the famous Prague castle and it boasts a sprawling roof terrace – more fitting for a fine dining experience than a quick bite to eat.

When entering the Gothic, aged building a swanky Starbucks is the last thing you might expect, but despite the contrast, customers can’t get enough.
Reviews on TripAdvisor don’t just praise the unique set up – but also the food, with one person saying: “The best chocolate cake I’ve ever had!”
Another wrote: “Excellent coffee with a stunning view over the city. It has to be the best place to sit, relax and soak up what the city has to offer.”
A third commented: “Excelllent afternoon with my daughter with famous view from the Hradčany Prague castle, good good for usual Starbucks price. We were sitting at the window and relaxing.”
A video clip of the popular coffee shop that was shared on Instagram has caused a stir online with viewers struggling to believe their eyes, with one calling it a “must go place.”
As the clip pans across the stunning view of the city, customers can be seen seated on the terrace – wrapped up warm and braving the cold for the impressive sight.
The history of Prague castle is shrouded in mystery, but it was most likely founded in around 880 by Prince Bořivoj of the Premyslid Dynasty.
According to the Guinness Book of World Records, Prague Castle is the largest coherent castle complex in the world, with an area of almost 70,000 m².
This is not the only time a posh version of a popular chain has made the news recently.
Earlier this month we told of the world’s fanciest McDonald’s that even sells lobster rolls.
With wooden furniture, beautiful fireplaces and mahogany booths, this McDonald’s would fool anyone to think they’re in a posh tavern.
