Our Perogi were about the best we have had here, the beer flight was fantastic and our waitress was attentive and knowledgeable. This is a beautiful place for a bite to eat and a beer with a lovely atmosphere. We will definitely come again read more

The food was phenomenal. It really offered a lot of different choices. I went with the schnitzel, which was great. Perfectly done pounded out thin like it's supposed to be. I looked over at the table next to me and they had the pork and I almost thought man. I wish I had one of those too. I love the environment. I didn't see an elevator so if you're handicapped, it's a bit of stairs down. Quite frankly, I don't know why it has 3 1/2 stars. read more

CK Browar - Schnitzel with warm kraut and potatoes - Pubs Near Me - Kraków, DS

Been coming not this place every krakow trip, 4 times per year. It's always been good but this trip was awful on 3 different occasions. Service has gone down significantly. Waited over 30 minutes for my server, nowhere to be found, had it find another server. Next visit took 30 minutes to even come over to the table, it was not busy at all. It's a great brewery but the service stinks now. read more

This is an awesome looking bar in an underground cellar not far outside the central area of Krakow. There are lots of huge beer labels adorning the walls. There don't seem to be many microbreweries in Krakow yet, unlike in many cities, so this is fairly unique. They didn't seem to have an English menu of any kind (and why should they) so I had to try and work out what the options were. Piwo, dunkel and weizen were pretty simple to decipher. The other 2 options began with J, although one was illegible so (perhaps not wanting too be egible to be ill) I went for the option called 'Jasne' (not unadventurouscould have meant poison for all I knew. Although it seemed a very common word on the TVwhen I looked it up later it means of course/obviouslybut also clear/bright, which makes more sense), which turned out to be a golden brew and just my type of beverage. If you are here (Krakow) for the beer then you need to put this place on your itinerary. read more

We went there for dinner and first impression wasn't great. Quite dark place, noisy and the smell wasn't very pleasant. We were going to leave but decided to stay and give it a try based on previous reviews of food. I'm glad we did. Food was very good. Everyone enjoyed it read more

This is a really cool spot. We got the flight of beers but you can also order by the glass or liter to share. Very robust menu with a ton of options, we got polish soup, perogi, and a pork knuckle. The pork could have fed 3 people easily and everything was really reasonably priced. read more

Down the stairs into a dampy and warm cellar. Here lies CK Browar. It has been around since the early 90's. Its a mixture of brewery, irish pub, sports pub and gastropub. From what I remember they have a couple of beers on tap. My favourite was the CK Weizen one. I still dont get why people drink certain beers with straw in Krakow, but I guess that will remain a mystery. I tried a couple of others, but I preferred the one I mentioned. Their beers are non-filtered and non-pasteurised ones. If you like, you are able to sample all their beers as well. Most did 5 L of beers in beer towers though. As with most pubs/bars in Krakow there are of course a dozen of TVs here. And what struck me a bit funky was that it was edm on the speakers. I did not picture this sort of establishment as an edm kinda place. We tried some of the local dishes as well and it was ok. Maybe a bit bland, but at the same time, we did not come here to get a gourmet dinner experience. Seemed to bit a mixture of tourists and locals. Just ok for me due to not as great selection of beers as I had hoped. Thumbs up however for good lacation, quick service and good prices for both beer and food. read more

The place is with incredible cheap beer and infinity bad service. You cannot split when paying. I was late and joined my company, but it was impossible to order beer or get an empty glass. Beer is nothing special. Disappointed. Upd: Is there zero stars rating? A bold guy came and said I can't drink my juice from another place. So, security works, but waiters don't. Upd: after 40 minutes I gently asked a barmen why so slow? They asked where we sit, I explained but she said she does not understand. read more

This place is huge! They have 2 floors. Top floor has seating and club music. Plenty of beers to order from in large quantities. Because our group of 42 was large, they have us in a private seating area. We had a preset 3 course meal, starting off with tomato soup with rice. It was good and light; texture was more on the broth side and not thick like Campbell's tomato soup in a can. The main course was pork chop with mashed potatoes. It was on the drier side and slightly gamey tasting. Their dessert, I believe, was an apple tart. Great thing about Polish food is that they don't use a lot of sugar or salt. The tart was on the more tart side which was fine but I was over it after the first bite. read more

Interesting bar where you can try non filtered, non pasteurised beer. I might always come out at a temperature verging on warm, or it might have been the 35 degree day on which I chose to visit. You can order a beer paddle to try them all and move on from there - I was particularly taken by a semi dark beer with a hint of ginger. The menu is reasonably priced with loads of options, mostly centring around the meat and carbs that make up 90% of your diet in Eastern Europe. My pork knuckle burger, which was tender and soaked in gravy, did have some pickle and the obligatory lettuce leaf on it, so that has to count for something right? Salad sorted for the day. Sit outside. It's a great spot for people watching read more

It is a brewery that does not have the atmosphere of a brewery. Rustic basement with antiques, brick ceiling and wooden tables. Has the setup for a great place to socialize, a beer hall where people could meet........ Except they can't hear each other because some genius decided to play loud techno, electronic and house at a high volume, and turn it into an obnoxious club at 2pm in the afternoon. Could you wait until 10pm to switch it to a club? Congratulations for taking something so cool and ruining it. Slightly overpriced mediocre quality food. read more

CK Browar is a good place for beer--that's it. I would dissuade people from coming here for dinner. The quality of the food has taken a massive downward skid. My last experience was simply awful. I ordered an onion soup and a pork chop. The former hardly tasted of onion at all while the pork chop wasn't sufficiently salted. How could a Polish restaurant messes up something so basic as schabowy? My companion had it even worse. She ordered two fish dishes. One was not fresh, while the other wasn't seasoned or cooked properly. To make matters worse, the waiter was rather rude. read more

A nice bar which although in a basement is fully air conditioned - in the summer in Krakow this is important. Good beer at reasonable prices. Sports bar that is good for football. Ate here one night and the food not bad - reasonably good value if not a menu designed to soak up beer! read more

Review is for beer and atmosphere only; I arrived after the kitchen closed. The Dunkel alone was well worth the trip if Central European lagers are getting old. The music was neither EDM nor overly loud; it was Thursday, however, so that might not be the case on weekends. read more

I had the Chateaubriand and it was lovely. I could have done without the mountain of fries that came with it....otherwise an OK place.

Service here sucks. Each server I talked to didn't seem like they wanted to be bothered. Beer is ok.
