Chmielnik Cafe & Pub

As the battle for becoming the trendiest, most up to the minute hip hangout in Warsaw rages, up pops a quietly unpretentious little bar, serving up fine beers, drinks and a few traditional snacks and dishes. The interior hints at the kind of Warsaw bars from the 'good old days' which sadly disappeared from the scene due to ‘progress’. The location on ul. Chmielna means it sees a good mix of tourists, looking for a place that's a bit less uniformly, modern European and locals with a soft spot for the past. The staff are a friendly and fun crew with no beards or tats - sometimes it just takes being normal to become different!
