CK Browar


This lively pub and nightclub is something of a landmark in its own right in this part of town. Proudly bearing the Habsburg seal, CK Browar (The Royal Emperor's Brewery) doffs its hat to the grand days of the moustachioed Franz Josef. Besides the smart and cheerful decor, CK does indeed have its own brewery, and here you can put the world to rights over a flagon or five of cool Polish ales. A suitably Austrian restaurant is on hand should you be feeling peckish, whilst the bar's T.V may save the day if there's a key match on the box.

"If you only have one beer in Poland you'd be a fool, but make sure it's a Dunkel from C K Browar. "

"I went to Krakow on a errr ahem school trip :) and we trailed the city one night looking for a place. We found it! This place or PUB as it says over the door was brilliant! The 5 litre tubes of beer were novelty and the beer was great! We had a bit too much but yes Id recomend this place straight away to people of any age, the pub caters for anyone while the club is great for younger people! Awesome!!"

"Lovely friendly staff, good beer. Inexpensive and very good food-better than 'Alef's'! I particularly found the ginger beer nice-not like the ginger beer in England I might add! My favourite 'reliable' eating and drinking place in Krakow, always with a good atmosphere whatever the time of day or weather!"

"we visited on dec 26, 2005. the dunkel beer which is why i went was not available. the light beer was good, but i was not overwhelmed. (i am a homebrewer etc....) the food however was better than expected. the mushroom soup in a bread bowl was excellent and the greek salad was also good. the generous amounts of creamy feta was very nice. greek olives rather than spanish would have improved it. it was not overdressed as is often the case. they brought oil and vinegar to the table. they could use a better quality oil and olive at that. for any beer enthusiast it is a must."

"One of the few places where you can watch live sport on a BIG screen. Also try Rooster's and the Irish Arms (best for football and rugby, but on a small screen). Beer here is, well, the best. Can get a bit crazy late at night at the weekends!"
