Not haute cuisine but a fun evening out - good atmosphere, mutant portions and humungous flagons of beer. It's close by the Old town and if full go to Mexican next door.

Down from Old Town to Nowy Swiat is a good walk with plenty to see. You'll be ready for a coffee and a famous doughnut when you reach this Warsaw landmark ( very good breakfasts too )

Entertainment & Activities

My favourite park and one of my favourite places ...it's on every tourist map. Take some nuts to feed red squirrels and blue tits by hand. Sunday there is a Chopin recital ... well worth it.

I usually try and go to at least one gallery when I am in a new City so this is probably the one to see in Warsaw. Recently refurbished, check the site for current exhibitions.

Uncle Joe's gift to Poland is a like it or hate it landmark. Well I quite like it and you should try and get to the top. It's close to the big Mall and the Main RailwayStation for your Krakow tickets.
