Poland · DINNER EXPERIENCES
Good dinner experiences fill up weeks ahead; the great ones go first. Below: the 13 to book early, what each includes and how they differ.
A 3-hour Polish folk show with unlimited drinks and an all-you-can-eat dinner near Lake Kryspinów, with interactive dancing.
“The food was not anything special but overall the experience was worth it. Nice show with the band of dancers and a lot of food and drinks included.”
Gdańsk in one evening: 32nd-floor views, Olivia Garden Prosecco, Italian pizza, and a signature cocktail for $44.
“was a lovely meal and drink and overall a good experience”
Krakow folk show at Jama Michalika Café with two dance sets, audience participation, and a three-course Polish dinner for about $45.
“Fantastic entertainment and a good atmosphere. The food was a good way to taste local cuisine. Would highly recommended”
Warsaw Old Town half-day Polish food walking tour with guide, 10+ tastings, vodka shots, and a recipe booklet. English.
“We appeared to have gotten a substitute tour guide at the last minute which may have accounted for some of the disappointment with this tour. I do want to say that I had let them know ahead of time that my daughter was a vegetarian and they were able to accommodate her at each location. The tour was supposed to provide a history of the food that we were sampling, but our guide offered very little information and generally only when asked a question. The tour description says that we would be "learning it's history, culture and all the background for each individual dish that we will try." We learned…”
Krakow’s Michalik’s Cave delivers two Polish folk shows plus a 3-course dinner in English, lasting about 2 hours, for about $49.
“We had a lovely evening, folk show was good, people joined in, very friendly staff food good too , worth the cost to go”
A 3-hour Krakow night of Polish folk dancing plus a three-course dinner, big food buffet, and unlimited beer, wine, tea, and coffee.
“Pick up was a bit random but once at the venue the dancing was excellent. Good that they did a performance and then we had our starter and then another performance and then more food. Good atmosphere.”
Rooftop Asian set menu at Nikka, Gdańsk Old Town, with Motława and St. Mary’s Basilica views, plus Fri-Sat club night.
“smak potraw sposób podania miła obsługa piękny widok na dachy starego miasta”
Romantic Wawel-view dinner at Aquarius, then a 30-minute Vistula cruise in Krakow with wine and a set 5-course menu.
“The Aquarius restaurant was a lovely setting and the staff were excellent. The food was very good, almost exactly as described in GYG, and portions sizes were quite generous. The boat ride (which we had between the cheese and beef tartare courses) was fun and made better by the fact that we were the only ones on it so had our own private trip! There isn’t a huge amount to see and we couldn’t really hear the recorded tour guide but we still really enjoyed it with our glasses of Prosecco. Ordinarily would have said a bit pricy for what it was but because we got a private boat trip…”
A 3-hour Krakow night of hearty traditional Polish food, unlimited drinks, and an interactive folk show at a forest log-house near Kryspinów Lake.
“Overall very satisfied however I paid extra for a more private transport but ended up on a coach”
Enjoy a Vistula evening in Krakow with a regional Polish dinner, currant vodka, mulled wine, and Wawel Castle views.

“Had the best lunch at the braothaus restaurant excellent food great team super freindly environment great veiw all was good”
