Authentic pierogi? Yes, please. There are any number of places in Poland in which to get good pierogi - and as much as I'd love the opportunity to try them all, this is the place where we landed today. It's a cozy and very colorful place, with wonderful aromas and old world charm. The service is, well, decidedly European - you can't be in a rush when you get here, and being all "American" about it won't get your food on the table any faster. I've been living in Spain for eight years now and I find table service to be quite a bit slower than in the US. Then again, they aren't chasing you out of the restaurant when you finish eating, either - they give you plenty of time to just chat with your mates and enjoy another round. As for the pierogi? I would GLADLY come back here! read more

Restauracja Błękitny Pudel - jedzenie bardzo smaczne, ale obsługa to absolutna tragedia, najgorsza, jakiej kiedykolwiek doświadczyłam. Przyjechałam z moim narzeczonym i jego najbliższą rodziną, aby pokazać im kawałek Polski. Zamówiliśmy wodę, kilka drinków alkoholowych i naprawdę sporo jedzenia - m.in. sałatki Cezar, żurek, rosół, burgery i pierogi. Naszą kelnerką była pani (nazwijmy ją "Kaczka" - bo wydawało się, że miała w ustach trochę za dużo "wypełniaczy"), która przyjęła zamówienie... i całkowicie zniknęła. Ani wody, ani drinków nie dostaliśmy od niej. Musiałam prosić innych pracowników, aby w ogóle przynieśli nam coś do picia. Przy składaniu zamówienia jasno poprosiliśmy, aby wszystkie dania wyszły razem. Minęło około pół godziny i zaczęto podawać potrawy - niestety tylko połowa stolika dostała swoje jedzenie, reszta czekała. Ci, którzy dostali jedzenie jako pierwsi, zdążyli je zjeść i skończyć, podczas gdy druga połowa nadal czekała na swoje porcje. Przez cały ten czas kelnerka ani razu nie podeszła do stolika, żeby zapytać, czy wszystko jest w porządku. W końcu, zirytowana, poprosiłam inną kelnerkę, żeby sprawdziła, co z resztą zamówienia. Okazało się, że dokładnie w tym momencie "Kaczka" wychodziła sobie na przerwę. Nie podeszła do nas, nie przeprosiła - jedynie pomachała do drugiej kelnerki i wyszła "na miasto". Kiedy zapytaliśmy o menadżera, usłyszeliśmy, że... takiego w ogóle nie ma. Podsumowując - kuchnia naprawdę dobra, ale obsługa fatalna, chaotyczna i kompletnie lekceważąca gości. Błękitny Pudel Restaurant - the food was very tasty, but the service was an absolute disaster, the worst I have ever experienced. I came with my fiancé and his close family to show them a bit of Poland. We ordered water, several alcoholic drinks, and quite a lot of food - including Caesar salads, żurek, chicken soup, burgers, and pierogi. Our waitress (let's call her "Duck" - because it seemed like she had a bit too much filler in her lips) took our order... and then completely disappeared. We received neither water nor drinks from her. I had to ask other staff members to bring anything to our table at all. When placing our order, we specifically asked for all the dishes to be served together. About half an hour later, food began arriving - but only for half the table. The other half was still waiting. Those who got their food first had finished eating while the rest were still empty-handed. During all this time, the waitress never once came to check on our table. Eventually, annoyed, I asked another waitress to find out what was happening with the rest of our order. It turned out that, at that exact moment, "Duck" was heading out for her break. She didn't approach us, didn't apologize - just waved to the other waitress and went off into town. When we asked for the manager, we were told... there simply wasn't one. In summary - the kitchen is genuinely good, but the service is terrible, disorganized, and shows complete disregard for guests. read more

Decent Polish dinner place. Ambience could have been better inside, there weren't many windows and it felt a bit crowded. The service was also quite slow despite not having many people in the establishment. Our server was also quite short with us. The food, though, was excellent. I ordered the crostini which came with an incredible goat cheese and compote. Even though it was a starter, it had plenty of food for a meal! Pleasantly surprised. read more

A fantastic pub, cafe and restaurant in Sopot. What I really love about this place is the interior. They have collected all sorts of old stuff and put them together in some random order which creates a great feeling. It's wonderful to just sit inside and watch all the details, I can do that for a long time. Whenever I go to Sopot I make sure to stop by here and have at least one drink. What I however don't understand is why there are so few places like this where they manage to create a great atmosphere. read more

I think this place has pretty good food, which a lot of people seemed to be eating, but as a solitary diner I was pretty much ignored. I did manage to order some pierogies, which were good. The service was absolutely terrible, and nobody checked on me during my meal. I would have ordered more, but nobody came by to take any orders. I had to go and find somebody to get my check. read more

For the area, which is more expensive than other parts of Poland, the prices were affordable and the food quality was excellent. The atmosphere inside was unique and cozy, though we enjoyed eating outdoors. I highly recommend the Goat Cheese Salad and Cream of Cauliflower soup! Their beverages did not disappoint either. read more

My late visit last night was surprise to how bad was service of this amazing other wise place. The weather was ugly, light rain and dump air all over the town. The pub was full inside, I had a reservation but wait for the table 10 minutes... First wait for simple mix drink was 20 minutes, order main dish and again the wait was 20 minutes, by this point you can guess the waiting time. If off season crowds over come ability's of staff to serve fast than this look very dark with approaching spring and summer. 3+/5 read more

Great food, good service and a perfect location. Heaters outside which makes it comfortable to sit outside for a long time. Took a while before we could order but once you have, you get your food pretty fast. read more

After more walking than we planned on, we found our way here upon finally finding the crooked house. Intrigued by the sign on the storefront claiming to be the oldest pub in Sopot, stopped in for a drink. For a pub, I was hoping to land on a quality beer. However, there were only two varieties on the menu, Pilsner Urquell and one Polish beer. While the Urquell is excellent for its style, I'm just not a big fan of either beer. Being on vacation in Poland, thought I would try something unique to the region so selected a malinowa herbata or raspberry tea. Have to say the tea was extremely enjoyable with lots of actual fruit in the glass. Point deductions though for an inadequate beer selection (pub), date over the door that was somewhere near 1996 (couldn't quite reconcile that with the oldest pub claim) and generally slow service. read more

Great place there's a really cool vibe around! Awesome Pierogis! And the service is really nice. We came late because our flight was really delayed and this was one of the few places open with Polish food. Even tho the kitchen was kinda close they still offered Pierogis and that's what we came for baby!!! #jackpot and alcohol of course! read more

Fancy and old fashioned, totally adorable atmosphere with its old interieur. Food was housemade and really tasty and came very quickly. But the best thing I need to mention are the waitresses who were really friendly, relaxed, always smiling. Thank you for making our afternoon even nicer. read more
