Stopped in here for a bite to eat and to unwind after the concentration camps. When we arrived,…read morethere was only one other table that was there. We were seated promptly by the window. Our server did come over and was attentive initially, but that completely fell off throughout the time we had our meal. We did try their homemade glass of wine, and it left a lot to be desired. Even though she explained it was a dry wine, it still tasted sweet and it was thick. It even had a strong after taste similar to cough syrup. The Pilsner was nice and cold. We did try the tomato soup and the garlic bread, which was good. We also tried the Hungarian Pancake and the Casserole. I ordered Hungarian and it was very flavorful as was the Casserole dish. Did I absolutely love either dish, I did not, but it was good. I truly think this is going to be an individual preference. What I will tell you is, the food will take 30+ minutes to come out, as they say it can take 45 minutes at the bottom of the menu. Make sure you have an appetite as they serve a LOT of food for your order.

Could this be a zero? The kitchen is never open. Reservations or not. Looked like a cool place, but…read morewouldn't know. The smirk and smile as the host told us he wouldn't serve us made it even worse. 0 stars

The rest of us had a sampler of appetizers. Smoked plum wrapped in bacon with a cranberry relish. Goat cheese toasted on a sweet bread. Pierogi. And for dinner, we had family style. Chicken, beef, pork and BBQ kabob, with kraut, carrot salad and green salad, plus potato. Service was good, food excellent and the decor was very fun.

We ate there in early May, 2018. Nice place, hidden back in neighborhoods. We ate inside because it…read morewas threatening rain, but there's a really nice outdoor dining area. Because we're light eaters we only had appetizers and drinks. I ordered an apple-mint nonalcoholic drink, which was delicious. We got the bacon-cheese wrapped plums and the "lard" (smalec). Neither was huge, but both were adequate-sized and most important they were delicious. It was maybe the best smalec we've had out of the dozens of times we've had it over many, many trips to Poland, served with great crusty bread and pickles. The plums were six toothpicks of bacon and plum poked into slices of apple and cheese, with side splashes of plum compote and what we decided was a horseradish and egg sauce. Absolutely yummy and the service was good. If we lived in the area, we'd definitely come back and try their other offerings. (And they had a good crowd of locals: always a good sign.)

From the owner: Welcome to Karczma Rogata — a place where history and tradition live in every corner…read more It’s an honor for me to invite you to my family home — a place built in 1896 by the hands of my great-great-grandfather, Franciszek. He crafted the beams, the roof, and even the furniture that still furnish this tavern today. Thanks to his dedication and passion, I can now host you in a place filled with memories and warmth. This is not just an ordinary restaurant. It’s a home where every brick and every beam has a story to tell. You can even see the original serving window in the brick wall, reminding us of the old tavern that once operated here in the interwar period. I wanted you to feel at home here — to enjoy dishes prepared according to my family’s recipes. Here you can taste sour rye soup (żurek) made with a starter just like my grandmother taught me, homemade lard with pickled cucumbers from Charsznica, slow-cooked meats with potatoes baked in a bread oven, and pancakes and pudding exactly the way I remember them from my childhood. Every bite is a journey back in time, and every visit is a new story I want to share with you. If you’re looking for a place that combines flavor with history and a truly homely atmosphere, I’m sure Karczma Rogata will be a unique discovery for you. I warmly invite you — come and experience the true taste of history. — Krzysztof Hankus, Owner
