Nic Nowego

Nic Nowego (Nothing New) is a rather smart and comfortable modern Irish pub, beautifully appointed and with rather a refined and friendly atmosphere. The owner, who is from Ireland, can often be found here and is welcoming in a way only the Irish can be. The barman, who speaks English, mixes up a wicked array of drinks, and naturally there are a number of Irish ales as well. Open from 7 am until the last guest leaves, Nic Nowego also has a photo and art gallery, and a varied menu offering everything from an Irish breakfast(!) to seafood. With the recent addition of WiFi internet access, Nic Nowego is popular with visitors, students and businesspeople, making it well worth a visit.

"You're right David. You're totally entitled to your opinion. We'll have to agree to disagree. I've been coming here for years, and spent a large part of my stag do in there, as well as many other unforgettable (or is that forgettable?) nights there! Next time you're in Krakow I guess you'll have to try the other 'Irish bars', of which I myself am not the biggest fan!"

"David, are you sure you went to the right bar? Nic Nowego is a legend in it's own right! This place is not a restaurant and has never said it was so what sort of menu do you expect? The food you'll find, if you tried it, is fantastic! The owner is a chef himself, and there's not a bad thing on there. All good wholesome food. As for the staff, they all speak English, what's the problem? You're in Poland mate! Why don't you try a bit of the local lingo?! Not busy? When were you there? It's always busy! Love this place, and long may it remain in this beautiful city!"

"Just had poached eggs here (with bacon and spinach). Last time I had it, they were delicious. However, this time the cook decided to use WAY too much vinegar for poaching the eggs. A skilled cook does not need to use any vinegar for a good poached egg, and this was just too much - my eggs tasted disgusting and it affected the rest of the food in the plate as well. Don't order this dish!"

"I think it's safe to say that I am now a regular at Nic Nowego! A bar which in my opinion is way ahead of it's competition in Krakow. Whether you're looking for a bar/cafe or a place to eat some good, reasonably priced food, then this is the place in Krakow. I recently had the poached eggs, after the owner Tom, recommended them and true to his word, they were great! Thanks Tom!"

"Had to make the trip to Nic Nowego for the obligatory pint(s) of Guiness yesterday for St. Paddy's day, and what a night it was!! We had a great time! The craic was fantastic! Tom, the owner, was welcoming as always and we all enjoyed a fair few shots to make the evening complete! A great place, reaffirming the fact that this is my favourite place to eat, drink and be merry in, in Krakow! A fantastic bar/pub/restaurant/general hang out with superb staff and awesome food! A must for anyone in the city!"

Its not the decor that makes an irish pub its the craic and as i went in there on my own and ended up having a great nights drinking with people who i got chatting to and the staff i think it ticks that box alright with me. just watch out for the slivovitz."

"Hi Deco. Unfortunately, as we are aware that rival owners unscrupulously use the review function to bogusly promote their business with false reviewers and worse to damage other businesses credibility by posting fake negative reviews, we reserve the right to remove any suspicious reviews (however slight the suspicion) - and all of those reviews removed from this website have contravened our guidelines http://www.cracow-life.com/guidelines.php in one or often more ways. Your own comment was supplied without a valid email address for example. We hope Cracow Life continues to be a democratic tool for visitors to Krakow, however if someone has something to say it should be with no alternative agenda and backed up with a verifiable email address.
