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 food we had was outstanding. I had the sour rye soup served in a bread bowl. A hearty tangy warm a hug for your stomach on a cold winter's day. It is a meal in itself. My wife had pierogies. They were freshly made and deliciously filling For dessert I treated myself to the scrumptious tiramisu. Rich and creamy with just the right amount of texture and creaminess. The service was excellent, and the food delicious. Can't wait to visit again!

Members of the tourist horde rarely venture in here as the signs say that located within are a dentist office and a fertility clinic. It's a place for people in the know.

I ordered a latte and 2/3 was froth but I also ordered a home made lemonade which was excellent. Starter was humus and garlic bread with salad. It was the best humus I've had so far, garlic bread was good and it was a very large dish. My main was pasta with pesto and cheese it was a disappointment. Mainly because I could have cooked it at home rather than going out and it would have been better. I do love the feel of the cafe, it's the kind of place I could really relax for the evening. The service was ok and the price not. I would probably come again for a drink and a snack as they seem to do that well

It came with scrambled eggs, bacon, sausage, whipped cottage cheese with spices, a piece Of fried cheese, fresh tomato wedges with a vinaigrette drizzle, and a Polish pretzel. Everything was delicious. If that weren't enough I ordered the Lemoncello waffle as well! Just WOW!! A crispy outside and soft fluffy inside with vanilla, lemon zest, and lemon infused whipped cream topped off this master piece. Every bit was a citric explosion with lime purée and fresh berries as a garnish, my tastebuds were in overdrive! Lastly, I had the BEST freaking Iced cafe mocha I have had since I got to Europe (18 days and counting) in between Vienna, Slovakia, Romania, I had to come to Poland to get a legit mocha. The customer service was also amazing! When you done have to look for your server, that is a good server. The ambiance was so relaxed and chill that even every table was full we were just as comfortable as we were when we were the only two people in the restaurant. Five freaking stars!

If I had to choose only one place in Kraków where I would buy my 'pączki' on Fat Thursday, it'd definitely be 'Cukiernia Pod Arkadami'. On a day like Fat Thursday / Tłusty Czwartek, you have to visit them early, as I'm sure all 'pączki' will sell out very quickly. The place is tiny, but there is room for a few tables with comfortable chairs. I can't wait to visit them again for a cappuccino and a sweet treat. I never leave without something delicious to share. It's hard to decide what to buy because everything looks tempting and desirable. Only one time, we tried a multilayer cake, but it wasn't my favorite. I would definitely ask questions before ordering a birthday cake etc. I'm sure there is a flavor that suits anyone's preferences.
