Overview

On this three-hour tour, we will visit six top-rated food spots to taste iconic Polish staples, including Sour Rye Soup, three types of Pierogi, Gołąbki (stuffed cabbage rolls), Silesian Roulade, and mouth-watering Pączki (traditional doughnuts). Your journey also includes artisanal bread with salted butter, Poland’s most famous chocolate snack, two distinct vodkas, and Kompot, a traditional fruit drink. With 12 total tastings, this experience equates to a full three-course meal. Come hungry and definitely don’t plan for dinner afterward! Between stops, I’ll share stories about the city’s past and present, offering a deeper, more authentic understanding of Warsaw and Poland that goes well beyond its culinary scene. You’ll also receive an interactive map of must-visit spots to help you navigate the city with confidence after the tour.

Meeting and Pickup

  1. We’ll kick things off at Plac Pięciu Rogów, the vibrant heart of Warsaw, where you’ll get an introduction to the tour

  2. Our first food stop is a traditional Milk Bar - a must-visit for anyone exploring Warsaw, known for its homemade dishes and nostalgic communist-era vibe. We’ll start with pierogi, a true staple of Polish cuisine, while soaking in the unique atmosphere of this iconic spot

  3. This is our main dining stop. In this traditional Polish restaurant, we’ll sample some of Poland’s staple dishes: pierogi - the country’s most iconic national dish, placki ziemniaczane - one of the tastiest specialties in Polish cuisine, and a selection of grilled sausages.

  4. No good food tour in Poland would be complete without vodka! But we’ll start with a version that’s actually tasty — a smooth quince-infused vodka liqueur. And for those who want the full Polish experience, we’ll also do a shot of pure vodka, chased with a slice of lemon

  5. On this street named after Winnie the Pooh in a 1950s children’s vote - we’ll talk about the postwar reconstruction of Warsaw, a heroic effort that required unprecedented measures, including the creation of the largest and most powerful architecture office in the world

  6. We’ll briefly discuss World War II and its lasting impact on Warsaw - a history that shaped the city into what you see today

  7. We’ll learn the story behind Poland’s most famous chocolate brand, E.Wedel, step inside the iconic interior of its flagship store, and taste its legendary ‘Ptasie Mleczko’ - a beloved treat that has been delighting Poles since the 1930s

  8. On Tłusty Czwartek (Fat Thursday), every self-respecting Pole indulges in at least one pączek - though, in reality, we devour around 100 million of them in a single day, averaging 2.5 per person! One of the most legendary spots to get them is Blikle, a historic bakery dating back to the 1860s, famous for its rich, traditional recipe
