Bar Turystyczny

Tasty food, huge portions. I ate 60% of my plate before giving up. I skipped dinner after having lunch here. I should have just shared a plate with my husband. My advice is to order one portion first and look at the size before ordering for other people in your group.

Very tasty, quality homemade food. Excellent prices. The girl who served us was very helpful as we do not speak Polish (visiting from Scotland), was patient with us and spoke English to us-thank you. Do not miss this place if you are in Gdansk.

You all know, you who have been to a canteen of former days. In those days it was really good. On the rare occasions you find one now you might be suspicious. But here it's still good filling tasty food. Really recommended! I stumbled in after closing time but took what was still available and were allowed to have my meal during cleaning time. Creds!

Very tasty and appetizing. The kitchen is clean and tidy. The staff are eager to help with the choice. In the morning, I had pancakes with cherry jelly — they were amazing, very homemade-style. Lunch is shown in the photo. Everything was delicious. The cutlet was perfect, with lots of flavorful melted butter inside and plenty of chicken meat. I recommend this place for a tasty and relatively affordable meal.

Very authentic Polish food. The cabbage roll was OMG so good. The taste was well balanced and everything just melts in your mouth. The mashed potato was also superb. Self service eatery, feels hearty and home-cooked. Very reasonable prices.

An Authentic Taste of Poland – Worth the Wait! If you're looking for an authentic Polish dining experience that truly feels like you're eating among the locals, look no further than this fantastic spot. From the moment you arrive, you'll likely notice a line, and let me tell you, the wait is absolutely worth it. The food here is simply excellent, delivering on all fronts of traditional Polish cuisine. Every dish I tried was prepared with care and packed with flavor, making for a truly memorable meal. The price-to-quality ratio is superb, offering incredible value for such high-caliber, homemade-style food. You'll leave feeling satisfied without breaking the bank. My only minor quibble came at the very end of the meal. While I was still finishing up, the woman collecting payments took my plate, and seemed to give me some stern looks for not leaving quickly. It was a bit of an abrupt end to an otherwise wonderful experience, and it would be great if guests were given a bit more time to truly savor their last bites. Despite that small point, the incredible food, local atmosphere, and excellent value make this a must-visit for anyone craving genuine Polish fare. Just be prepared to finish up promptly when the time comes!

Great food at a fair price. The place is right on the centre so easy to reach during your visit to the old town. I also loved the sweets with very low quantity of sugar. Tasty and healthy.

A very enjoyable meal. Much nicer experience to eat here rather than the tourist traps on the main street in Gdansk. Kids loved it too, their food was gone before we could take a picture.

4.5 stars! There's nothing particularly "touristy" about Bar Turystyczny! This classic milk bar has a menu entirely in Polish and a staff that's been cooking classic Polish food since the 60s, as the photos on the wall can attest! This is the place for a quick, cheap, yet tasty Polish meal. Their recommended dish of the day was the Nalesniki, or crepes filled with fermented cabbage and topped with a creamy mushroom sauce. I also got the chlodnik, a creamy pink Lithuanian beet soup made with sour cream, vegetables, dill, and a hard-boiled egg--a super refreshing combination for a hot day! And to round it all out, there was a huge selection of vegetable side dishes, including fried cabbage, shredded beets, and a refreshing cabbage/carrot/dill slaw. The value for the food here was simply unbelievable, and the views of the Main Town alone made this a worthwhile stop!

Great homemade food..affordable prices.The menu has a big selection.The line goes by fast definitely worth the wait. I highly recommend"Gypsy Pancake"

We tried probably 5 or 6 milk bars on our trip through Poland and this was our favorite. No wonder there's a line out the door! Everything is laid out in front of you so you can see and point even if you don't speak Polish. We tried pork cutlet, chicken cutlet, boiled potatoes, French fries, carrots and peas, and some cabbage salad, and it was all really tasty and comforting. Would totally go back if we ever return to Gdansk!

Expectations were high because of all the milkbar-hype, but it had everything : a queue of locals including an old lady taking lots of food home with her in her own tupperware. Real polish food like "gypsy pancake" and kotelet with beetroot and mashed potatoes. Really cheap, wholesome dishes and still the authentic milkbar feel (I think, ofcourse I havent been to one before ;)

Another great milk bar in Gdańsk. A variety of good, homemade Polish food. Prices are reasonable too! Grab a table on the main floor or on the second floor, rest your feet, and enjoy a good, warm, and home cooked meal.
