CAKESTER
Read moreOn two levels, away from the crowds of the city center, Cakester is the place for students, young people and tourists to meet for a drink and a pastry. The decor is in cupcake tones of pink and blue, while the menu offers vegetarian, vegan and gluten-free choices, from breakfast to dinner. Overall, the food is good but unsophisticated, the prices honest for what is a niche kitchen. We particularly recommend it for breakfasts or a cake and juice break.
ŻARÓWKA CAFE
Read moreThis small cafe hidden at the back of a charming courtyard surrounded by very tall buildings, away from the crowds of Floriańska Street on which it overlooks. It serves natural fruit juices, homemade cakes and quiches, alcoholic drinks and excellent bagels for the hungriest. The choice is limited in each category but everything is delicious. The atmosphere inside is wonderful, very intimate and calm among small wooden tables and colorful cushions. You will find a lot of Poles, refugees like you from the urban tumult.
EUROPEJSKA
Read moreThe English tea room is an elegant and impeccable service with an interior decor of wood and green velvet, with antique clocks and paintings depicting scenes of hunting. Tea is served by tasting superb cakes, such as the sernik (white cheese cake). You can also eat a few basic dishes (but attention is uneven).
KARMELLO
Read moreThis chain of chocolatiers is close to Belgian standards and the quality is there. Beautiful presentations and originality in the creations with more than 50 varieties of chocolates, truffles, bars, chocolate with candied fruits and other specialties... the stores cause stomach cramps. The chocolate remains Polish, it is produced in Bielsko-Biała, Silesia from imported cocoa (obviously). This is an address that we recommend for hot chocolates, a real treat to take to the streets in winter.
CUKIERNIA MICHAŁEK
Read moreFor their rose doughnuts(Paczki), poppy seed cake(Bakalowiec) or cream puffs, this little red-fronted establishment is one of Krakow's most popular! If you must indulge in a cholesterol-boosting sweet treat, don't be like other tourists and take the time to go there, and you'll be financing a local business rather than one of the big chain pastry shops that are all over the country. The disadvantage is that the local choice is limited to cult products.
CIUCIU SUGAR ARTIST
Read more"The smallest candy factory in the world" is what it says on the front of this little shop. For the children but also for the big greedy ones, one can see at the bottom of the store the candies made in front of our amazed eyes, with the hand (this small show has a great success with the young children who must then be removed by force from the window). Vanilla-strawberry-cream, spices, plum, mango or even salt and pepper flavors... there is something for everyone! This warm place makes you smile and creates good gourmet memories.
PIJALNIA CZEKOLADY E. WEDEL
Read moreThe Wedel chocolate, Poland, is a real institution. Make a stop here and you will understand why. Chocolates, cakes and dress of all kinds, delicious drinks made with chocolate and cafes available. The interior, charming, is worthy of this chocolate kingdom with a large vaulted ceiling of glass and black and white photographs of the founding fathers of the Wedel brand.
