Itinerary
Our food tour kicks off at a legendary milk bar, a type of cafeteria that dates back to communist-era Warsaw. These spots were once state-subsidized canteens, and today they remain beloved by locals for their nostalgic charm and honest Polish cooking. At our first stop, you’ll taste authentic pierogi—Poland’s famous stuffed dumplings—just like grandma used to make. We’ll also sip on kompot, a traditional homemade fruit drink that’s always on the table in places like this. It’s sweet, red, and full of history—just like the bar itself.
Next, we dive deeper into Polish comfort food with a hearty bowl of bigos, also known as “hunter’s stew.” This rich, slow-cooked dish combines sauerkraut, fresh cabbage, meats, and spices into something truly unforgettable. It’s a true taste of Poland’s culinary soul. To wash it down, we’ll pair it with a local Polish beer, perfectly chilled and full of flavor—just the way locals enjoy it.
Then it’s time for something sweet—Poland’s famous pączek, a deep-fried donut made with flour and filled with rose jam or other seasonal flavors. We’ll try it at a beloved local bakery, where they’re freshly made and absolutely irresistible. Crispy on the outside, soft and fluffy inside—this is a must-try treat that locals line up for!
To keep on a sweet note, we’ll try a classic Polish dessert that’s rich, comforting, and full of tradition. Whether it’s a creamy sernik (Polish cheesecake), a delicate makowiec (poppy seed roll), or another local favorite, this stop is all about indulging in the sweeter side of Polish cuisine. It’s the perfect way to wrap up the flavors of Warsaw.
We’ll wrap up the experience with a toast—a shot of flavored Polish vodka, a true local favorite. Whether it’s cherry, hazelnut, or the iconic żubrówka (bison grass vodka), this drink is a proud part of Polish culture and the perfect way to say na zdrowie! (cheers!) with new friends.

Excellent food tour. Luis was great. Very informative. Wonderful personality. Would highly recommend when visiting Warsaw.
Great food tour with a nice guide, food was spectacular, we went ton5 different hidden gems in Warsaw and everything was perfect!
We enjoyed an evening of trying a variety of Polish food and drinks and pastry. Our host Peter was engaging and friendly, sharing his personal story and explaining the different foods. Although we enjoyed the evening, cost of food/tour seemed a little high for the foods we tasted.
Good food tour around Warsaw, trying a few different dishes and drinks in a couple of places. The guide was very passionate about Poland and the cuisine. We were lucky to get the tour to ourselves.
Great way to experience a new city. A bit of walking, a bit of history and plenty of yummy food and drinks. I was lucky enough to not only have the tour operator Juan as my guide, but I was also the only person on the tour due to some late cancellations. Juan was warm and friendly and is very passionate about making sure people have a great time on his tours. All 5 stops offered a different type of local delicacy which were all delicious 😋 Make sure you arrive hungry, as you’ll definitely be full and satisfied by the end of the tour. Thanks Juan for a memorable tour ❤️

The food tasting tour was a wonderful way to experience different Polish foods. Daniella was an excellent guide. She went out of her way to explain all of the food and drinks we had.
