    I LOVE RETRO! We only spent two days in Gdansk, but went for breakfast here both days. The first day we spent hours drinking coffee and chatting. The atmosphere is very comfortable and groovy. In London, this coffee shop would be far outside my price range! The food here is fantastic. One of the main reasons that I was initially attracted to Retro was the fact that my traveling partner is a vegan. Retro has tons of veggie and vegan options and it made my traveling partner very happy. Their menu is in English and Polish. Both days we had different versions of their oatmeal and smoothies, all of which was fantastic! Retro while being on the main tourist street does not feel touristy. If I lived in Gdansk, I would visit here daily and I missed Retro when we left! It is rare to find such a perfect coffee shop!

    We stopped here twice for coffee during our trip. The first time we sat outside and the second time inside. The tables outside are a bit shaky and the atmosphere inside is cozy and inviting. I love the old decor; typewriters and books to read. There were so many things on the menu to choose from but I ordered a Siódme Niebo - kind of like a latte but with sweetened condensed milk added. So good! Can't miss. We ordered one of their vegan desserts to try and it was better than we expected. It was good enough to return to on a street filled with places to stop. I strongly recommend it for the taste of their freshly roasted coffee and the value. For three coffees and a dessert I paid $17 USD. Outrageous!

    Cakes were great, coffee and hot chocolate was good but not great. Worth visiting for the cakes alone though.

    We came in on a cold rainy day and ordered the hot chocolate with whipped cream. We received so…read moremuch whipped cream (not complaining) and the hot chocolate was so delicious. This isn't any hot chocolate, either, like the powdered kind you get in America. No, this was legitimate melted chocolate. If heaven had a taste, I think that's what it would taste like! The service was good, the young man at the register was helpful and very nice when he dropped off our drinks. The cafe itself was nice but needed some care, a little extra cleaning would be nice. The bathrooms, however, were horrendous, and I suggest skipping it and going elsewhere for the toilets. If I could give it 4.5 stars, I would, but the bathrooms were really bad so I took a star off for that. I would 1,000 percent order the hot chocolate again.

    What can I say. I am an international ice cream lover. Whenever or wherever I see anything to do…read morewith ice cream, I have to stop. When my wife and members of our family came to this beautiful city of Gdańsk there are a couple places that are very appealing to the eye when it comes to ice cream. But my wife was pushing me towards this one because of the ice cream dishes people had who were dinning out front of this location. So she knows how ice cream is my weakness. I can never refuse it. So we decided to stop in and order. The girls who take your order were nice and helpful when it comes to making a choice for based off of you taste. "HINT" This is not America to were taste samples are given upon request. You get what you get. It's pretty much a hit or miss. But from all the times I have visited Poland I have never been disappointed with any choice I have made. The place was clean. And for the person who once reviewed that they are overpriced has obviously not ventured to far for ice cream. Because I found their price to be quite similar to those that I have dipped into before for good ice cream. They also have a menu booklet to help you with your decision. I liked it. But to each its own. Make your decision. I wasn't disappointed.
