A relatively young crowd - early twenties. Pijalnia could take the prize for best bar food. The drink selection ranges from polish beers to various shots - all for $1 euro. Food includes soups, cream cheese+bagels, and steak tartare on rye, all for $2 euros. These were 3 of the very popular dishes. A must go!

Went to this location at the beginning of the night and to the Kazimierz location toward the end of it, or somewhere in the middle...it was definitely a long, epic night in Krakow. We did not try the food but I know I'd like it. Simple Polish standards that go well with drinking. All the food is 8 zl and all the drinks are 4 zl. We had shots only. Plain vodka, Vibovit, Polo-cocta, and Borewicz. The shots were very sweet so we finished washing them down with just plain vodka. All the vodka was perfectly chilled. That was not the case at the Kazimierz location where they were warmer. Warm vodka is not good vodka, blah. The idea of this chain is awesome.

This is for sure my favorite place in Krakow. This is a restaurant inside of an old synagogue…read more There are 3 floors and tables outside. They serve Pilsner Urquell as their main beer. Also there's a secret hall downstairs. I really enjoyed this place, visited it at least 3 times during my short stay in the town. Also, they have some social events on the top floor. Great people work there. I love this place and definitely recommend it!

It occupies a former synagogue in the hip Kazimierz (Jewish Quarter) section of a city balancing ancient architecture, tragic history, and redemption. It's not the airy tourists traps of the main square and the menu ain't an American coffee shop.

The staff wasn't very friendly alas and I still can't believe that ordering a fruit cocktail apparently means ordering a milkshake in Poland... The cake was also a bit on the dry side. But guess what, the place and its charming ambiance makes up for all that. And the menu did look nice, also from a vegetarian point of view. It's great with places that are pubs and cafes both, it makes fro an ecclectic mix of guests and there's always something for everyone. A perfect place to spend a warm summer evening in!

The do have a garden area which is shaded and fairly small. What I love about this is that when they have a small band playing you have to walk between the band members to get back inside from the garden. The bar is small and very basic with just a couple of staff. The night I went they ran out of change so we all had to use our cards to pay LOL It is the kind of place you could take a loved one for an intimate drink as you do feel very hidden away. However before you get carried away with your loved one the seats aren't that hidden so not naughtiness please.

However the wait was less than half an hour and staff would pop out to check on party sizes and whenever a table was available. Inside was compact with two rows of wooden tables, rows of beer steins and a nautical decor. Service was fairly quick after placing my order. The pork tenderloins came with about six pieces and smothered in a creamy mushroom sauce. The pork was tender and seasoned well. Roasted potatoes was lightly salted. The fresh side salad was a refreshing balance to my overall heavy meal. The Placki Ziemniaczane (potato pancakes) was fried and very crunchy. The flavors wasn't purely potato as there was something else mixed in but couldn't quite identify it. I actually preferred swirling each forkful in the mushroom sauce from my entree versus the sour cream. It was slightly more than other similar restaurants but quality, portion size and taste was worth it.

We wanted to see music, so be sure to ask to sit in that room, before the music starts. There was a charge for music, but it was pretty minimal. I think about $12. You pay for that before the band starts. So we were horrified that our reserved spot was right in front of the stage. There were still some unoccupied tables, but she wouldn' t seat us elsewhere (I think because they were for groups of 4, even though they were twosomes and all pushed together into a single row. We were literally inches from the stage. We ALMOST left, but were so glad we stayed. It actually wasn't too loud! We could even talk and hear each other during the show. The table was right in front of the drummer and we had to get up and move to let him up onstage, but somehow it wasn't too loud. They were definitely set up to fill up the place and not be offensive. The band was amazing. Mostly US and British tunes, with a couple of what I assume were Polish songs. And they had an amazing guy who just did the harmonica to every song. We enjoyed it so much. Well, since YELP IS a food reviewing site, I had to knock off a star because their pizza was like any other typical bar food. They had other menu options, perhaps better?, but my husband wanted to share a pizza.
