Hi Ricky,
First of all let me say that I love your blog! I am in the process of planning some redemptions to Europe and have the option of having an 8-hr stopover in Warsaw on my way back to YYZ. I’m wondering if you think this would be a meaningful amount of time for a stopover in this city? Or should I just opt for the 3-hr layover instead?
Thanks!
Angela
I think 8 hours would be enough to head into the city, see the Old Town, have some nice perogies, and maybe check out one of the museums. If you don’t think you’d be too tired, I’d say go for it!
The thing that I was taken by in Warsaw is how lively nightlife is here. I went to New Orleans club and had a great time tI’ll 8 am. Imagine how shocking it was for boy raised in Utah ????
Milk bars are great deal, but I think nowadays even students like to have more luxury in their lives. The idea of the milk bar is to serve cheap home meals. Tell, me if you need to pay for preparing sth that you can have at home for less, why to buy it in the bar?
For me having a meal outside it is relax. I love to sit in interesting interiors, using help of the waiter in choosing the dish and I found what I like in Bubbles bar (http://bubbles.com.pl/). There is just fantastic atmosphere when causal atmosphere is mixed rich tastes of good dishes and champagnes.
As it comes to eating I can definitely recommend my favorite culinary spot in Warsaw – it is a restaurant called the Akademia. They have both Polish and European cuisine as well as a great choice of excellent wine. The atmosphere is very nice and I usually spend hours there 🙂 And their cheesecake is out of this world!
Great recommendations, I need to safe some of them for my next trip 🙂 I love visiting Warsaw and exploring new spots in the city. My last discovery that is one of my favorite ones is a bar in the downtown called Bubbles. I went there with my friends and we had a great evening. Delicious champagne, cozy atmosphere and excellent food – I love everything about this bar 🙂
Thanks Alisa 🙂 Will definitely make a note of that for my next trip to Warsaw.
