Visit Krakow

Cechowa

Cechowa is a ridiculously reasonable introduction to Polish cuisine. Well-located and favoured by locals, this is highly recommended for budget travellers.

Catering to academics from the university and other locals, Cechowa represents absurdly good value, despite its favourable location, close to the Rynek. The food is sometimes basic but this an authentic introduction to Polish cooking, with the minimum of fuss. The restaurant itself has an old school charm and, taken as a whole, should probably be first choice for travellers on a budget.
