I kid you not, my friend. It's true (though I'm not 100% sure about the ALL thing, but they do send quite a nice bunch of money to that school).

The pub donates all revenues to a school for handicapped children, does it?
Is this true, or is someone pulling your leg?

I have signed, and I've urged all my pivo-loving friends to do the same.
I discovered Vola back in 1992, and have spent hundreds of hours there over the years. I am Swedish, but I return to the Czech Republic at least twice a year. There have been many disappointments — so many of my favourite hospodas have been ruined, closed down, changed beyond recognition, even turned into McDonalds (Cernohorská in Brno), but Vola has never turned me down. The "gruffy" staff are really sweethearts. You just need to get used to them, and they to you.

Anonymus. You are right, I don't know who this Benda is, but if he's got the support of the current owners of the pub, he's got mine, too...

I too have signed the petition.
I love this place took my nephew and his mate there last year so they could experience this unique place grumpy waiter and all.

My girlfriend's mom is a judge in Prague 1!! She loves U Cerneho Vola and spent her student years in that pub. If this is on her table, which I hope it is then no damn Pilsner Urquell will take over the ox!
According to the notes in the petition (from what I understand, my czech is not perfect) Praha 1 decided to give the rent the establishment to Mr Benda, which was what the previous owner wanted.

Signed. I've been to U Černého vola a few times and loved it. That said, stopping yet another "Pilsner Urquell Original Restaurant" (ghastly places, only marginally more acceptable than "Husa" by dint of selling better beer) is, in my opinion, a worthy cause in itself
