Piano Nobile Restaurant
We invite you to experience Piano Nobile, where you can savor a menu orchestrated by Executive Chef Honza Štěrba. Honza has been an integral part of Chateau Mcely since its founding in 2006, charmingly reigning over the chateau kitchen as Executive Chef since 2010. His passion for gastronomy, his devotion to botanicals and local ingredients, and his imaginative inspiration drawn from the surrounding chateau park and St. George Forest are reflected in the complex flavors of every dish. In 2025, the restaurant received the following prestigious accolades: MICHELIN - Selected Restaurant 2025, World Culinary Awards - Best Hotel Restaurant 2025 in the Czech Republic, and the Three Golden Lions, securing its place among the premier Czech restaurants for 2026.

What's on the menu?
Our creative culinary team uses primarily ingredients from local suppliers, the chateau gardens and smokehouse to create an exquisite seasonal menu under the experienced direction of executive chef Honza Štěrba.
In addition to the à la carte menu, you can also enjoy a leisurely breakfast, tasting menus, or special themed menus which we prepare during the whole year. For our younger guests, we offer a Princess Nely children’s menu, full of fantasy, and we even have a special menu for dogs.
Executive Chef Honza Štěrba
Honza has been a member of the chateau’s culinary team practically since its opening, and has gradually worked his way up to the executive chef position.
"I love coming up with all kinds of new delicacies based on high quality ingredients that are - to the extent possible - sourced locally. At Chateau Mcely, we not only prepare delicious food, but we also grow our own herbs, make our own marmalades, smoke fish and meat in our chateau smokehouse, and make a variety of other house specialities."
Bellavista Patio
A beautifully designed bar with views of the surrounding park. In addition to the stunning views from the patio, guests can enjoy truly unconventional Signature cocktails with ingredients from the chateau gardens, essential oils, homemade syrups, enriched with products from the MCELY BOUQUET collection, such as Tangerine Candy Scrub.
You can also enjoy a wide range of alcoholic and non-alcoholic beverages, such as trendy rums and 14 types of gin from all over the world.
The Alchemist Club
The Alchemist Club is located in the chateau's cellar and is a wonderful place to sit with a glass of wine or cognac after dinner.
The Alchemist Club is the favorite place of the chateau’s owner Jim Cusumano, who is often called a “neo-alchemist” by his friends. This is perhaps why you can find here an original jukebox that Jim brought to Chateau Mcely from his family residence in California.
Wine Cellar
The wine cellar at Piano Nobile holds over 1,000 bottles of 260 different wines from all over the world, including world-famous Bordeaux wines.
Our cellar also features a comprehensive selection of wines from one of the most renowned Czech vintners, Jiří Hort, whose wines, without exaggeration, have conquered the world. He has created a special cuvée for Chateau Mcely, which can be tasted only here.
