The set-up is pretty cool, with the sliding wall of fake rental DVDs opening to reveal the bar…read moreinside. And architecturally it is nice as well, with a smallish main room and even smaller cozy nooks for intimate conversations.
But this place is seriously pretentious. A cocktail menu in English only (how is that cool? How is exclusion of of actual Polish citizens from participation in their own bar a statement of anything other than elitism for its own sake?) describes a longish list of mostly disappointing drinks, all on the sweet side. They aren't badly priced though (but absurdly, a bourbon and soda cost nearly twice the price of a drink with fire and berries and muddled passionfruit that took 15 minutes to make).
UPDATE: The owner tells me they now offer their cocktail menu in Polish as well. Good for them.
And the beer list is pathetic: Grolsch or Grolsch. At a time when Poland is going through a craft-beer renaissance, this just won't do.
UPDATE: The owner has sent me their new, much more respectable beer list (mostly Belgian beers). My original three-star rating stands, despite these improvements. It was generous the first time but now seems fair.
