Itinerary

Stop 1

Our food tour kicks off at a legendary milk bar, a type of cafeteria that dates back to communist-era Warsaw. These spots were once state-subsidized canteens, and today they remain beloved by locals for their nostalgic charm and honest Polish cooking. At our first stop, you’ll taste authentic pierogi—Poland’s famous st■ dumplings—just like grandma used to make. We’ll also sip on kompot, a traditional homemade fruit drink that’s always on the table in places like this. It’s sweet, red, and full of history—just like the bar itself.

Stop 2

Next, we dive deeper into Polish comfort food with a hearty bowl of bigos, also known as “hunter’s stew.” This rich, slow-cooked dish combines sauerkraut, fresh cabbage, meats, and spices into something truly unforgettable. It’s a true taste of Poland’s culinary soul. To wash it down, we’ll pair it with a local Polish beer, perfectly chilled and full of flavor—just the way locals enjoy it.

Stop 3

Then it’s time for something sweet—Poland’s famous pączek, a deep-fried donut made with flour and filled with rose jam or other seasonal flavors. We’ll try it at a beloved local bakery, where they’re freshly made and absolutely irresistible. Crispy on the outside, soft and fluffy inside—this is a must-try treat that locals line up for!

Stop 4

To keep on a sweet note, we’ll try a classic Polish dessert that’s rich, comforting, and full of tradition. Whether it’s a creamy sernik (Polish cheesecake), a delicate makowiec (poppy seed roll), or another local favorite, this stop is all about indulging in the sweeter side of Polish cuisine. It’s the perfect way to wrap up the flavors of Warsaw.

Stop 5

We’ll wrap up the experience with a toast—a shot of flavored Polish vodka, a true local favorite. Whether it’s cherry, hazelnut, or the iconic żubrówka (bison grass vodka), this drink is a proud part of Polish culture and the perfect way to say na zdrowie! (cheers!) with new friends.
