There are places in Krakow that are impossible to rate. For a certain group of people, it will…read morealways be a no-star destination. It all depends on how old and sentimental you are. The Pod Jaszczurami Club has existed since 1960. It has always been a great place to meet for coffee/beer and a cigarette. Sometimes you would drop in for a disco or some artistic event. There were live concerts, poetry evenings, various types of lectures, karaokes etc. I'm talking about the times when Krakow had a tiny fraction of the bars, clubs and restaurants it offers today. I don't know much about this place these days. However from what I've experienced, having been there a few times in the last few years, I have to admit that it's worth a visit like in the old days. In addition, it looks like the entire interior has been restored. Really cool murals depicting local artists, clean and comfortable sofas are new things that I personally do not remember from the past. In the basement there is a permanent exhibition dedicated to local singer Andrzej Zaucha. Everyone loved him and cried after "Zaucha was shot and killed in his hometown Kraków at the age of 42, by French film director, Yves Goulais, along with Goulais's wife Zuzanna whom he suspected of having an affair with Zaucha". Pretty crazy story. I recently stopped in for a beer. I had planned to sit outside, but all the tables were taken. At the time I thought that was a good thing. I sat on a super comfortable couch with a beautiful view of the Church of St. Wojciech and the Sukiennice. The window was spotlessly clean, as if it wasn't there at all. I had a really nice time watching people walking by and sipping cold Książece beer. Next time I'll check the live music schedule, maybe hit a dance floor or join one of the karaoke events. You don't want me to sing, and I won't, no worries.

We went to Klub Pod Jaszczurami for drinks and they were having a karaoke night so we stayed there for awhile. The drinks are good and it was a nice experience. The next day, we went around looking for a good club but ended back at Klub Pod Jaszczurami. It was an actual club scene that night and the vibe was really fun.

Went to this location at the beginning of the night and to the Kazimierz location toward the end of it, or somewhere in the middle...it was definitely a long, epic night in Krakow. We did not try the food but I know I'd like it. Simple Polish standards that go well with drinking. All the food is 8 zl and all the drinks are 4 zl. We had shots only. Plain vodka, Vibovit, Polo-cocta, and Borewicz. The shots were very sweet so we finished washing them down with just plain vodka. All the vodka was perfectly chilled. That was not the case at the Kazimierz location where they were warmer. Warm vodka is not good vodka, blah. The idea of this chain is awesome.

Drinks were not hard to get or expensive. Conversations was rare. Stone walls, eerie artwork, almost no lighting.. I dug. We grabbed drinks, didn't dance much, I think it was late in the night, and the range of people seemed to run from bros to nightlifers.

The night I went they ran out of change so we all had to use our cards to pay LOL It is the kind of place you could take a loved one for an intimate drink as you do feel very hidden away.
