Cafe Zakatek email

A zakatek is a little nook or corner, and this cafe is certainly one of Cracow's hidden gems. It's tucked away in a tiny courtyard off the market square, and it's a charming place to come for a quiet drink or snack. In classic Cracow style, it seems that the clock has stopped here and that you have left the world behind. Antique odds and ends set the tone, and brushes of dried plants emerge from the corners. Fading posters of herbs and plants add a pleasantly eccentric touch, and you could well imagine a distinguished pre-war botanist strolling in with his elegantly trimmed whiskers and steel-rimmed spectacles. Settle down with one of Zakatek's wholesome sandwiches or salads, and let the old gramophone transport you away.

Very Cracovian. A great spot full of character. Perfect for a quiet, candle-lit chat over a beer...

haven't been to Zakatek for a while! Nice romantic spot which somehow doesn't get too crowded despite being ten metres from Krakow's main square. good salads and snacks

An excellent escape from the crowds on the Rynek during the summer months - you can duck in here off the market square when you have had enough of thehordes of visitors. Good sandwiches and coffee.
