Restaurant prices for Slovak people are considered to be very high. Most Slovaks only dine out for special occasions. Therefore, the common Slovak menu will usually contain celebration meals and not daily meals. The menus in Slovak restaurants are usually very similar and contain a limited selection of the most popular choices. Smaller, local restaurants will offer a greater variety of common daily entrees.
Medical facilities are available.
However, only a limited number of doctors are English speakers. Doctors and hospitals expect cash payment for health services unless the patient can present an insurance number from the Slovak National Insurance Company. Check with your own insurance company to confirm whether your policy applies overseas, including provision for medical evacuation. Most roads outside of built-up areas are two lanes only. Taxi companies provide generally reliable, safe and economical services.
