Kitsch


Enjoy over 300 square meters of space in one of Krakow's gay-friendly spots. Here you'll find tasteful decor, good music - seeing a pattern? Kitsch can also boast membership in a group of sorts... In this same kamienica (building, palace, brownstone - depending where you're from), you'll find a few other cool joints to check out. Your plans for the evening are set! Why run around town (especially when it's X below or rainy) when you've got your one stop shop right here. Good atmosphere, good tunes, good drinks. What are you waiting for? Time to dance the night away.

Kitsch

"I visited the club for the third year in a row, and everytime it's lots of fun. The music could be better, but there's a very good atmosphere. This year I met a girl called Kate studying teacher in social sciences, I'd like to contact her but forgot to ask her email. So if you read this, Kate, drop me a line. "

"The previous reviews describe that place pretty good! You get to meet a lot of nice polish people having a good time, drinks and music are totally exceptable. But damn, keep an eye on those gorilla style bouncers! They toke a serious hold of me, for none whatsoever reason. I had a hard time getting out of there whith good luck that I was almost unhurt."

"Yellow... Kitsch has the 2 sides that were talked about here, the grungness of the door man, and possibily some times u'll have to run away from them, loool, but the party there just rocks everything!!!! One among lots of situations, was that i was just dancing and a girl gets near me and starts to kiss me, just like that!!! Kitsch music, great drinks (vodka off course) and ever greater girls!!!!! Top of the tops!!! The best place to end up ur night!!! Enjoy it..."

"I've been to Kitsch many times and it's always been good fun. Sure the bouncers are a bit strict, but then they leave you alone if you listen. Never had problem inside. Always good tunes ... sure it's a bit run down, but there's some charm to it. Bartenders are speedy and drinks stiff if you tip. It's a Krakow institution!"

"Everybody should avoid this place at least for respect of the several people who have been physically abused, inside the place or at the entrance by those security guards. I wasnt aware of that went I visited it last night. As I was leaving this guard decides to beat me out of the blue. He kicked my back forcing me to roll down the stairs, I repeat ABSOLUTELY FOR NO REASON. I spent the whole day trying to call local police as well as my embassy. I could have been seriously hurt."

"AVOID AT ALL COSTS!!!!! this place is a dump. It has 2 gorilla's on the door who randomly choose to let u in or not and if the choose not to let u in, they push u in the chest, hardly a great idea when the door is right at the top of a flyte of stairs. The toilets are also interesting - there are no urinals so guys have to piss in sinks. This place is seriously bad, no hot girls and the place is full of intimidating people. Club Cien is much better"

"Dont trust these reviews as they are most likely made by Kitsch staff, just compare Mauro Mar.23.2007 with this review made on another Cracow website http://www.cracowonline.com/221-Kitsch-Club (I became suspicious when I read about the friendly bouncers). Kitsch is place you end when everything closes, the bouncers are extremely aggresive in their way of handling problems (they only use force/never talking) and often the place is "full/closed" unless you pay a 10-20z³ entrance fee. All in all it could be a good place without the gorillas standing at the door "

"so, this place is over-rated, very tacky, NO DJ if music were played off an ipod playlist, it would sound better. the songs played clash with one another, so there is that "awkard pause" in between songs where people stop dancing. if your looking for a after party its not a bad place if your drunk enough not to care about the music. but either way its where everyone ends up. but the fact that there is no dj really bothers me, and makes me rethink about the definition of a "club" i had higher hopes for this club"

Atmosphere is always welcoming, it's free entrance, but the toilets aint great - so take some tissues. I've been here for 5 months now and rarely go a weekend without ending up in the Kitsch!!!"

"I went with my buds to celebrate his 23 b-day. Quite disturbing that I saw gay people french kiss each other. (only if i knew this is a gay friendly place) anyway, I ended hooked up with 2 hot polish chics without even paying to get drinks for them. made all those guys mad as they bought rounds of drinks for them."

"We were there to check out the whole house on wielopole, and stayed for a couple of drinks. The reason? Strongbow draft, and good music! Good place to party whether you are straight or gay. As a married straight couple, we didn't feel unwelcome at all, as you may in some other gay bars. The toilets are generally bad in Poland (as a little remark to an earlier review), just bring your own tissues, and you'll be OK!"

"This bar was perfect for my fishy pallet! Although the dancers didn't carry out my request to dance like a fish! The drinks were great i even got a bit of cod liver oil! The was a small pond out back to me moist! I drinks really opened up my gills. My boyfriend Limpet got slapped because he kept trying to touch the barman, and apparently his hotpants were too tight and short! After a while a got chucked out for making inapproriate sexual gestures! It was still good while it lasted! The fish will return with his hot pants! "

BTW, i met a really hot polish guy, i don't really remember your face but i remember lots of other things about you. I was wearing a pink T-shirt and some white skinny jeans. You know who you are!
