We managed to snag a nice outdoor table with a nice vibe with a couple of other restaurants around us all seating next to each other. Inside this place is adorable and so unique. The decor and colors and the art. Just a neat place. The food and drinks also on par with the ambiance. Service can be slow but we weren't in any hurry. We ordered a round of espresso martinis and my one friend had a sparkling Rosè. The martinis were a little milky looking which isn't my favorite but these tasted good and not to dairy forward. It had a little extra ingredients in it than your normal espresso martini. Which made it different too. Hazelnut vodka and amaretto. Worth a try. We tried the Brie and salad baguette and the berry cheesecake. Both of these were stellar and so good and fresh. Loaded with toppings on the baguette the Brie was nice and creamy. The tomatoes were delicious. The cheesecake was so crumbly and the compote on top was house made and very berry forward. All of it was just the perfect afternoon pick me up and we were so happy with the serving size and all the dressing up in the plate. So pretty. One of the best cheesecakes I've ever had. They make all their desserts in house I believe. They have some great looking ones displayed . Loved this place !

When we entered we decided to ask whether they take card, and the answer was no. Luckily there was an ATM just a minute or two away. We ordered pancakes with dark chocolate and a menu with three different types of cottage cheese. First of all the pancakes were actually one single which surprised me in a good way. However, I think they used too much egg in the batter (or maybe it was on purpose) but for my taste it was closer to an omelette than a pancake, which is not the best combination with chocolate. Also as a chocolate lover (and who isn't?) I would have appreciated a bit more chocolate. The cheese dish then: before we got our food they put a basket with bread on the table, which we of course attacked like hungry wolves. When the food arrived we were surprised to see that the cheese menu is really just that: three cups with cream cheese, which cost 15 zl. We understood that the bread was actually meant for the cheese menu only. Surely they could have served this together with the cheese or maybe warned us that the bread was meant to go with it. The cheese itself was excellent however, especially the one with basil. Lastly, they should step up their bread game, because this was this kind of pre-baked baguette that you just need to heat up. So will we be back? Probably not for breakfast. By reading the comments here it seems it is worth a second shot, maybe for dinner to taste the wine.

The hot chocolate or cacao was great, although I'm not sure why they served it in a glass? It's open fairly late until 8, but I wish it was 10. Overall, I plan on coming back quite often.

And to my surprise my entree was even more delicious! I had chosen beet flavored gnocchi with goat cheese. Sounds strange, but the mix of flavors was on point. Note: You order all food and drinks at the bar and in exchange they give you a buzzer which you should bring to the end of the bar near the kitchen to pick up your food. Seems like a popular place for people to work remotely on their laptops. Decor inside is like a retro hipster vibe, but not pretentious. I've only been here during the winter, but I know that when the weather warms up they have a huge patio area located in the front overlooking the Wisla river. Be sure to arrive early because this place is always packed. Lastly, they have a club downstairs. Update: I've been back a few times since the weathers been nice. I love sitting outside on their beach chairs and enjoying the view of the river and castle. Like I mentioned before, make sure you arrive early to get a seat outside, this place is basically packed all day and into the night, especially if there is an event or festival going on.

Good Place during the day.

Sometimes it's a bit overcrowded due to its popularity but I do love to come back there.

They have 3 levels of limited seating but it's seat yourself so you may be waiting for a table if it's busy. Hop in line and order from the counter. I had to get the hot chocolate because it's the thick kind you can only find in Europe. It went down like a dessert - you almost have to chew it. It's really good, if you like that type of chocolate. The service is excellent - I was helped by a young lady who was very personable. I asked if they took cash but I didn't have the exact amount and they didn't have enough to make change so I paid by card instead. Seems to be the more popular payment type anyway. Make time to stop by during your visit to Old Town - it's worth it!

I love this place. It's very cosy and charming. No loud music (come to think of I am not sure if…read morethere was music at all, but I guess there was, just not too loud) so guests don't need to yell at each other to have a conversation. BTW. I have noticed that many cafes and pubs of Krakow have this approach - which is great - that the background music is rather quiet. after all pub/cafe/restaurant guests come to have a meal/drink and to talk, not to listen to music. I have many wonderful memories from this cafe - meetings with friends for a drink and a chat throughout many years. the place is beautifully decorated and has a unique atmosphere. a very interesting interior, with a mezzanine along two walls in the main room. the mezzanine seating is ideal for a more private conversation or a date ;) even though alcohol is being served there, I haven't noticed any disruptive behaviour. the floor plan of the place (a few connected smallish rooms instead of a large one) prevents bigger groups or (heaven forbid) infamous bachelor parties from frequenting. Although this year I have visited this place on a weeknight so I can't speak for weekends... Altogether I really recommend this place. it is totally unpretentious and is really impressive for those who like antique furniture and decorations, without even trying. There is self service, so don't wait for somebody to take your order - you need to go to the bar to place it. but the staff will clear the tables of course. The cafe has a few connected rooms on the main level, the mezzanine and a medium size room on the second floor (it might be hard to find it) with its own bar, and a beautiful view from the window.

The menu is a nice size, enough choice but not too much, salads, soups, starters, pasta and mains. I had chicken teriyaki penne which I would describe as very functional, I.e. it filled my stomach without any additional excitement or controversy. Service was very fast and efficient and scored highly for the speed of paying the bill (generally in Poland there is the impression that the staff are embarrassed to take your money, you ask for the bill which comes but then the staff vanish). Given its location and atmosphere I would describe Mercedes cafe as a good place if you are looking for a business lunch.
