Brno Travel Forum

My friends will be transfered in Brno for 2 yrs (work there). We are wondering how much does vegetables, meats, fruits, fish cost per kilo/pounds? If possible to site kind vegetables and fruits and fish available there it will be great help.

They will be staying in stredni 61. Is there any supermarkets/markets, restautants, shopping malls, groceries near the area? is it walking distance or need to ride in a bus. How much is the fare?

thank you

Hi, there is shopping mall with Tesco and Kaufland not far... walkind distance, I would say about 10 minutes walk. Look at this website: http://en.itesco.cz/ ... it might give you an idea about prices.

If you still want to go by bus, a ticket will cost you 8CZK (valid for 10 minutes), 13CZK for 40 minutes.

thanks for the information. Really a great help

Shop at the weekend open air produce market in central Brno. There is a tip about it on my Brno page.

It is definitely a good idea to get a monthly/quarterly pass for public transport. Price is 14/37 EUR.

will give you a pretty good idea about cost of living. Although it is for Prague, if you ignore the section "accomodation", everything else could be applied for Brno as well.
