Polish food is known for being heavy on meat and milk products, so Vega Bar Weganski's vegan take…read moreon Polish dishes is a truly innovative feat! The Pierogi Ukrainskie was a plate of six dumplings stuffed with cottage cheese and cabbage, topped with fried onions and a dollop of sour cream. While the original version of this pierogi is already vegetarian, this restaurant's version was made with completely vegan ingredients from the imitation cottage cheese to the butter to the garlic cream! There were a couple of international options on the menu as well, and I ordered the samosa, a fried turnover made with a mixture of spiced vegetables (potatoes, onions, peppers, carrots, tomatoes) wrapped in a flaky, crispy spiced dough. The best part of the dish were the two sauces the samosa came with: a red pepper purée and a thick garlic cream that rounded out the flavors of the spices. Along with our dishes came a selection of surowka (salads) including red cabbage with sesame seeds, sauerkraut with sun-dried tomatoes, carrots with pumpkin seeds, and green cabbage with dill. Overall, the food here made for a delicious meal that came at a great value, especially given the restaurant's location right in Wrocław's central market square!

It's right in the city center, so really convenient…read more It's really two restaurants - order at the counter cafeteria style on the first floor, and international food on the second. Both restaurants are fully vegan! Another reviewer said she felt uncomfortable on the ground floor. I didn't at all! The menu is not in English, but the person behind the counter spoke English well and was really helpful. And there was also pictures, which made it really easy to order. We arrived for a late dinner about 45 minutes before they closed. The restaurant is really affordable, especially for the quality and the portion sizes: we paid under 45 PLN for two huge meals with bottled waters. We tried a buckwheat cutlet (sort of like falafels made from buckwheat) with mushroom sauce, and stuffed cabbage. Both were served with our choice of salads (you can also order a la carte). The salads were excellent, and not what I expected: shredded carrots in one and pickled veggies in the other. All of the food tasted really fresh and well prepared. As their window says - animal liberation and human liberation are linked! Whether you're a vegan/vegetarian/flexitarian/omnivore who just wants to get some more fiber and vitamins, do yourself a favor and check out Vega.

I didn't know vegan deserts could be so good! The staff is very friendly they didn't mind our questions, and were helpful with recommending other places to eat and go see in Wrołow. The best part of all is that besides being delicious, it's all super healthy :) We'll definitely go back the next time we're in Wroław!

After a few…read moreweeks of eating salads for breakfast at the hotels (standard breakfast foods in Central Europe tend to be very different from what one would normally associate with breakfast), we were craving a hearty, carb loaded breakfast. Cafe Central is so so so good. They have tons of bagel sandwiches listed on the board, as well as, pancakes, oatmeal, and much more. They also carry non-dairy milk too!! I always wanted to branch out and try a new bagel but I ended up ordering the same one every time- onion bagel with hummus, tomatoes, and pickles. Seems like an odd combo but it was DELICIOUS!! (I do believe it was vegan; however, I did not confirm that the bagel did not contain eggs or dairy) Despite the fact that it was a bagel, I never felt gross or bloated after eating. I would 10/10 recommend. Tips: they have wifi! If you look on the wall above the bench seating at the front windows there is a little note that states the password. The menu when you first walk in is in polish but have no fear! If you walk around to the left side of the counter and look up, the menu is in English.

Ugh I MISS THESE FRIES SO MUCH…read more During my two weeks in Wroclaw over the summer, I ate these fries *almost* daily. How could I not? I usually ordered the regular fry but I tried the sweet potato version as well. They have a variety of cool sauces available (most vegan) but I only used ketchup. (I know, so unoriginal and American of me lol) A note about the ketchup in Poland- it tastes different than your typical Heinz. More fresh and tomato-ey perhaps? Not in a bad way- just slightly different. You HAVE to try these fries while in Wroclaw. There is usually a line so be prepared to wait! Keep in mind this is merely a window opening in the building- there is no inside space to sit or eat. Maybe do not choose to stop by when it's poor weather.

Walking around the main square one day, I stumbled upon Frankie's. From the outside, the shop had a cool, fresh vibe- very American-ish. While I recommend trying out local & authentic fare as much as possible when traveling, I couldn't resist a acai bowl. I came here more than once while in Poland and I was pleased every time. I tried both the choc-acai bowl and the regular acai bowl. My friends loved the mango bowl. My only complaint (and this is really just me being a picky American) is that the smoothies and acai bowls are on the liquid side. I'm quite used to everything being thick and creamy but in Poland (and much of Central Europe) they use less ice and add more liquid. Side note: the menu in the shop is in Polish but they do have English menus if you ask!

I recently had the pleasure of being in Wrocław for business for a week, and was accompanied by a…read morevegan co-worker. Wrocław being a pretty hip town, there is no shortage of vegetarian and vegan options, yet Żyzna stands head and shoulders above them. Much of the vegan food in Poland is not in any way related to Polish food. We have lots of vegetarian options, but no vegan ones. So, when one sees vegan food in Poland it is typically SE-asian style. Nothing wrong with that, but it's pretty generic. Żyzna borrows much from foreign cuisines, but manages to infuse Polish flavor notes into the dishes, and that makes them stand out. We started with a great potato and white bean soup with marjoram and horseradish. The horseradish was an excellent touch, and ever so subtly tied the soup back to the Polish traditional żurek, or sourdough soup. For seconds, we had a quinoa-based dish that did a nice job of incorporating pickled beets and their brine, and little sprigs of dill, both of those being very classic Polish flavors. The other dish was a vegan risotto with black sesame, coconut flakes, and pea shoots. Also superb. Dessert was a lavender cake (not too heavy on the lavender) and a sublime chia seed pudding, and coffee with spelt milk. There is always a new soup of the day, and three main courses. Every week they rotate one of the mains, and it is always something seasonal. There is an assortment of desserts as well. Being a very small operation, they have a limited number of each of the mains, so it is quite possible that even early in the day they might be out of something. As an avowed meat eater, the highest praise I can give them is that this is really good food that just happens to be vegan. I would happily eat there again, and look forward to my next visit. The flavors are great, the service is friendly and low-key, and the food is expertly presented and priced very fairly. You owe it to yourself to go check Żyzna out.
