| | "The atmosphere was quite a bit more subdued than what I expected from the crazy website. The placed was packed with somewhat sombre university students enjoying delicious looking plates of home cooked food. We had stopped in for a quick snack and tried the 'baked' perogis recommended by another reviewer on this board. They were actually a very stodgy deep friend bread dish, more like small pastys than perogis. The flavour was o.k. but we found them too heavy and greasy for our tastes. I didn't enjoy the beet we had ordered dish either. I would go definitely go back again but just order regular perogis instead. Be sure to order sauce with them or you'll just get a plate of lonely dumplings. The egg garlic sauce I had at a Polakowski was to die for as was all their food. Polakowski's prices are similar and the atmosphere very different. " | adventurix

| | "Będąc u Was z przyjaciółmi, na ul Szpitalnej byłam świadkiem chamstwa jakiego jeszcze nie słyszałam w stosunku do kobiet. Pewien kucharz rzucał takimi wyzwiskami do barmanki że słuchać się tego nie dało. Wprawdzie robił to na zapleczu, ale wszyscy to słyszeli, moi przyjaciele i ja byliśmy zaskoczeni takim zachowaniem i daliśmy sobie spokój z jedzeniem, pewnie już nigdy tam nie dotrę, skoro tak traktują się pracownicy, to co robią z klientami." | Barbara

It's decorated as if you're in a wooden house and the food is great too. If you dont read polish remeber to pick up the little leaflet outside, it has an english menu on it (which we found afetr we'd eaten....!)" | Helen

| | "This place was worth the search! Very, very inexpensive for very tasty food - huge variety and enormous portions. We all had different meals which were ALL yummy. Very 'different' place - basic but in a nice way. Recommended - especially the baked pierogi with mushrooms and cabbage. English menu supplied upon request." | D

| | "Delightful place with OVERWHELMING choice of food. Everything we tried was a feast for the eyes, tastebuds & stomach. The interior is great- especially for those folks with children. Our three year old ADORED it & kept asking to go to 'Grandma's'. The service was lightening fast, patient & friendly (unlike their other venture on ul. Szpitalna- with surly, grumpy staff).
Food was delicious, well cooked, HUGE and cheap as chips (but a million times tastier). Pierogi was YUMM, as was the stew in bread. We will definately visit here everytime we are Krakow way. You'll spot us sitting watchin the fishtank with an amazed little boy!!" | Dharma

| | "As said before, a little hard to find but go through the courtyard and down some steps. They do have an English menu if you ask. You order at the bar and pay, then your number comes up and you collect your food. Huge portions, cheap prices and no alcohol. Decor is definitely 'Little Red Riding Hood/Grandma's House',which adds to the atmoshpere. Certainly worth trying at least once for the experience." | Richard, Lou and Jennie

| | "I agree with all the previous posts. Hard to find, but worth it. Homey, delicious, inexpensive, great experience. Linger time depends on what time you are there. We were there later in the evening with a large group and had plenty of time to linger. Definitely ask for an English menu - it exists though in limited supply." | Robert Szczesniak

| | "Absolutely fantastic, well worth the trouble to find. Welcoming and warming, but geared towards a good understanding of Polish Language. No menu translations so hang back from the queue a little and allow time to decipher the menu & make your choices. Very atmospheric but not a place to linger & savour it- we felt we should vacate our table fairly quickly after finishing to allow incoming diners somewhere to sit." | Jan Zielinski

| | "Its such a wierd little place! Wanted to eat here after reading other reviews on this website, it was really hard to find. Don't go looking for it at 9pm as we did - its shut! Its open until 8pm and serves no alcohol, but for a really cheap meal, massive portions, and "grandmas house" decor its worth the trouble. You need to go through the big building located 15-17, through the courtyard and down the stairs! good luck!" | Anna Newman

| | "Quite difficult to find - not somewhere you will stumble across unless you are actively looking for it. Once inside, you will be amazed - twee is not the word. However, our children loved the surroundings. Ordering from the menu can take some time, especially if you don't speak any Polish as the staff we encountered did not speak any English. When the food arrived, we were very satisfied with our choices, large portions, very tasty and I can recommend the 'soup in bread' which actually comes served inside a carved out loaf of bread - delicious! Worth the struggle with the language and menu. Excellent value - meal for 4 with drinks Ł10." | Julie Beaman
