The Best Restaurant in Krakow, Poland

Background Illustration for Restaurants

Kraków's best restaurants are primarily in the Old Town, within walking distance of the main tourist sites. Most restaurants are located in the Market Square and the streets around it; some are also in the Kazimierz Quarter. Cheap fast-food joints may be found next door to upmarket establishments. The streets most densely populated with restaurants include Poselska, Szewska, ?w. Tomasza, and S?awkowska, but you will find some of the most interesting eateries further afield: in Kazimierz and in Podgórze. At all but the most touristy restaurants, the custom in Kraków is to make a reservation, even if you do it just a few hours in advance. Tired of restaurants? An interesting alternative is a homemade dinner (or lunch) hosted by the locals, within the "Eataway" network.

Fitagain Cafe

$ | Stare Miasto
This health-conscious cafeteria a few steps from the Rynek is a great choice for breakfast, but it continues to serve fresh and tasty bites late into the evening. Daily lunch specials come in both vegetarian and nonvegetarian versions. You can also order smoothies, fresh fruit juices, organic snacks, and cakes, plus excellent specialty coffee all day. The latter is a locally roasted brand with great quality, and portion sizes are large. Never too much of a good thing!
