Cafe Bambus

Cafe Bambus is located on the ground floor of the 'Pod Baranami' palace, right on the corner of the main market square. The palace was one of Cracow's grandest aristocratic salons during the nineteenth century, and coincidentally, the old family still live on the top floor, having reclaimed the building in 1991. Bambus can be found in a string of huge vaulted rooms that look out onto the main square. It's an elegant place, and couples are fond of the little windowside booths. Much of the old grandeur can still be felt, with floral moulding spiralling across the ceiling. In summer the chairs spill out onto the square, a fine place to watch the world go by.

this place is a legend. It's been around for many many years. good selection of snack food.

It's a decent place - happy to recommend. Like other places on the Main Square, however, it is not that cheap

I've been here a few times and have really liked it. They have a decent selection of food and drink and some comfy seating to boot!

end up in Bambus quite often 'cos its on teh square. Nowt special but decent decor. service can be patchy. there are better places in Krakow

Nice place with quite good food. Relaxed atmosphere and a good place to have a few drinks in the afternoon.

In 6 Months Of Studies In Krakow I was In Bambus EveryDay... Mauriz, Tomas, Seba, Cris, Taieb, Pierre, Gigi... All great people... And all the staff... Sergey, Tomek, Magda... Thanx Everybody for the good times... I'll never forget... NEVER!!!

The best place in Krakow,a very nice waitress (thank you Magda for squelows) and good and drunk people inside: Mauritz, Max, Seba, Taieb, Zouzou, Tomasz, Amelyta,..."

Never disappoints. Good at just about any time of the day.Elegant interiors mixedd with occassional hip-hop.. uniqu and cool. There used to be this really beautiful waitress that worked here - where has she gone? I didn't even get her name!

It's nice you can play chess... Very good atmospher, I keep very much souvenir of this place!!!
