Lovely experience

Very very kind staff with good understanding of veganism. They have 2 vegan pierogi and 2 vegan sauces, which were all really good. They have an off the menu appetizer which you get while waiting on the pierogi. Bread with vegan lentil spread. Really tasty!

A bit confused about all the fried Pierogi in other reviews. I asked what they fried in and the server said diary butter, so I passed on that option.

Pretty dull

Kind staff, albeit a bit slow. Main problem is the food which is very basic and tourist oriented. Big plus for vegan options, but should have more love out into them. Had much better ones in wroclaw.

Nice vegan options

It s always a good moment and a nice idea to come to this place, the restaurant is nicely decorated both from the interior and the exterior, the food (veggie / vegan options) and drinks are amazing and served with patience and smile by Kuba, thank you !

Pros: Vegan pierogis !, Decoration, Service

Recommend

From the comments we thought there was a vegan starter on the menu which we didn‘t find because there is none BUT you get some bread with very tasty lentil spread anyhow! The staff could name ingridients and was very kind.

We had two „winter tea“ (berry and citrus) and both were very good. For lunch we had both kinds of the vegan pierogi in the boiled and fried version (recommend both in both styles). The fried onions and pepper sauce are vegan, also both yummy.

Like stated in the menu they make everything fresh and it takes at least 30min, for us 45min because it was very full. Worth the wait!!

Pros: Yummy, Cosy restaurant, Nice staff

Cons: Long wait

Limited options, but solid

Currently the restaurant offers a vegan starter (bread with lentil spread) as well as two clearly marked vegan options (sauerkraut and mushrooms filling / spicy chickpea paprika filling). Staff is very friendly. Good place to take your omni friends with you.

It's good to have vegan options, but pierogi can be already traditionally vegan anyway. There were only 2 vegan options here and many veggie ones, one that could have easily been vegan contained milk. They were out of one of the vegan options. Even the fruit ones were not vegan because of the addition of butter, which is unnecessary.
The puerogi we had were nice but not amazing. No vegan sauces except fried onion. Service polite and nice but v slow. Really nice selection of drinks.
Lovely setting.

Traditional pierogi

If you’re visiting Poland, this is a must. If you’re polish though your babka probably makes better pierogi. 😀 there were two vegan options, I went with the traditional sauerkraut and mushrooms one. It was tasty but I was not blown away or anything. It’s a very touristy spot, there was a 5 minute wait time for a table and it felt very fast paced. However, the service was excellent. Definitely give it a try to taste the traditional pierogi in vegan version.

Limited, but great options for vegans

We had three different pierogi that were all vegan and absolutely delicious. Highly recommended, nice to try the traditional dish as a vegan option!

UPDATE: March 2024 only two flavours this time, but they were still great.

The staff are all lovely, but you should ask for clarity on what is and isn't vegan - some drinks have honey in and some of the dipping sauces have milk - they're pretty knowledgeable about this, but this trip's waitress just bought out a dill sauce which wasn't vegan... Happily swapped it to something that was when we challenged it, but you might need to check if anything is bought to that you didn't specifically order.

Pros: Delicious, Great choices, Nice setting feeling very traditional

Not worth it

We orders two times a mix from vegan dumplings, they were super dry and tasted the same. They don’t have any vegan sauce and the lemonades taste like water and sugar. Definitely we will not come back again.

delicious dumplings!

They had three different types of vegan dumplings. I had a mix of all three and they were all really great!
But, as others have mentioned: Be aware that they serve fish as appetizer without you ordering it. Ask staff beforehand not to serve any!

Pros: 3 vegan options, really delicious, feels more like a local and not a tourist place

Cons: more vegan options would be awesome, serve fish as appetizers!!

NoGo! Served fish as appetizer 😩 No understanding what vegan means.

Wow, so we ate an animal for the first time since I don’t know. 😓😢 They served fish as an appetizer, without telling us, even though we were specifically asking for vegan food. We only realized that after the first bite ... 

- It’s really difficult to find vegan stuff on the menu. There is a vegan rubric. But the correlated sauces are somewhere else and not marked if vegan or not.
- They serve honey as vegan food! Even after complaining, the waiter said that "the chef said honey is vegan". I think honey is also in one of the “vegan” pierogi, at least it tasted like that, but I don't know that for sure!
- I think the pierogi were not fresh. They came just after a couple of minutes, way too fast for being freshly made, and they felt like being heated a second time. 
- And the service in general was bad. They were really confused, why we wanted to sit outside (on a warm summer evening 🤨) and took very long to process this and other information. Also after complaining about the fish appetizer, they didn't thought about brining something else instead.

Sadly our last evening in the city. We had a million times better experience and also better vegan pierogi in other places in Gdańsk.

Cons: Fish appetizer / Serve honey in vegan food, Difficult to find vegan food on the menu, The "freshly made" pierogi tasted/felt reheated.

Great place!

Nice place with few vegan options which were delicious and fairly priced. Yes, the complementary starter is not vegan, just tell them your preferences beforehand. The staff was very nice as well.

Pros: Tasty, Friendly staff, Nice atmosphere

Ok for vegans

I ordered the pierogi with mushrooms and they were quite delicious!

I wasn’t sure about the bread and the spread we got before the food was served, so I didn’t eat it and let my omnivore friend eat it.

I think it’s ok to eat there pierogi but I think there are other places too and I wasn’t amazed.
The price was fair.

I can recommend this location even tho I’m not going to eat there again because there are better vegan options. ✨✨

Pros: Price, 3 vegan options

Cons: Not enough info , Not completely vegan

Fish in appetizer

As an appetizer, they served bread with fish tartar - even after we ordered only the vegan pierogis. So be careful.

Other than that, the pierogis themselves were good, but nothing special. Would not return, even though the atmosphere of the place is quite nice.

Yum, but make clear you are vegan

Always nice to find vegan options of traditional food in different places. I had 5 of the cauliflower and sweet potato boiled pierogis with a cabbage and beetroot side with some bread which was plenty.
She bought me a vegan sauce when I asked.
They did bring us a starter because it was busy so we had to wait a long time. But it had fish in it which she didn't tell us, we only figured out by inspecting and my non vegan boyfriend sampling it.
So just be clear with saying you're vegan because otherwise the staff were friendly and happy to bring another sauce suitable.

Pros: Vegan pierogis! , Variety and salads too.

Ok, but nothing more

Four vegan options, which is usually enough, however - we ordered one of each dish and they were all very similar in taste and texture, hence the "not enough seasoning"-con.
I'd say it's fine for a quick and easy lunch, but wouldn't come here twice.

Pros: Enough vegan options , Friendly staff, Not too long waiting time

Cons: Not enough seasoning
