Founded in April of 1995, U Maleho Glena (called UMG by the locals) is a relaxing
place to eat brunch by day and a hot jazz club by night. Upstairs patrons will find a
comfortable, wood paneled restaurant that offers a full bar, delicious food and some
open space to relax and chat. By dinnertime, UMG buzzes to life and keeps rocking
with a bar that stays open until 2 a.m. (3 a.m. on weekends!) and a kitchen that's
happy to serve all the way until midnight. And it's hard not to stick around with the
wide selection of beer ranging from Guinness to great Czech beer like Pilsner
Urquell, Bernard, Staropramen, Kelt and Velvet. Not to mention several creative and
classic cocktails and authentic Cuban cigars!
As night sets in visitors can hear the thumping of one of the most thrilling jazz clubs
in town. Downstairs, UMG offers concerts every night where locals and tourists can
listen to local bands and jazz and blues musicians. Monday offers Prague’s longest
running blues gig, Stan the Man, who The New York Times calls "The Real Thing."
Wednesday’s offer up, Chicago's guitarist Rene, Tossman Band. In the mood for a
little, bossa nova, instead? Tuesday is when the lovely Vendulka Smoldas steals
patron’s hearts with her beautiful singing. Anyone looking for the upbeat tempo of
jazz is sure to get their fill as Thursdays, Fridays and Saturdays are dedicated to the
swinging sound of modern and bebop. Get ready for great musicians like David
Doruzka, Robert Balzar, Karel Ruzicka, Frantisek Kop, Ondrej Stveracek, Roman
Pokorny, Mirek Honzak, NajPonk and some international guests such as Osian
Roberts, Alberto Marsico, Steve Clarke, Christian Rover, Peter Guidi, Piotr Baron, Eb
Davis, Sharon Jones and Neal Sugarman among others. U Maleho Glena offers its
stage to anyone wishing to show off their own jazzy skills as Sunday’s are dedicated
to an open jazz session with other locals who just want to play! All shows start
around 9:30 and go on until midnight or later. Check out the website for details about
the shows and jam sessions, join the mailing list or just ask a manager for a list of
shows.
Visitor’s who love the UMG scene can also make it their home as new
accommodations are available in Uncle Glenn's Apartments. They are all beautifully
remodeled and include a kitchenette, bathroom and can house up to four people. Not
to mention it's only a hop, skip and a jump away from the Prague Castle and Charles
Bridge!
