As it is at the top of the list for Brunches in Krakow on Yelp, we decided to give Camelot a go. It was a very sunny Sunday morning in spring but as Camelot is located in a corner, it was actually a bit windy and cold.
The place itself is full of atmosphere and character, with lots of old artifacts and authentic elements. It needs to be said that the place is a little bit cramped, and the tables are quite small. We sat at a small round table with four chairs around it, but surely it was hardly spacious enough for two. Furthermore the wind was freely blowing into the establish and this made it quite cold: the couple at the table next to us were clearly shivering.
We ordered two baguettes (or baquette as they call it), one with salmon and cream cheese, and one with dried tomatoes, avocado, lettuce and an egg (the menu also promised a corn salad but it was unclear whether they just forgot or it got lost in translation).
Like the place itself, the plates were very pretty and appealing, but not very practical. The baguettes were of good quality but impossible to cut with the butter-knives that came with it. The only way of eating this in a classy way is eating off the layers of the top and finishing with the bread. They should give a serrated knife with dishes like this. Otherwise simple but tasty.
One note about the service then: considering it was very busy the girls did the best they could, but nonetheless we waited for 20 minutes after ordering, after which one baguette came, and the other one followed five minutes later. Also, you cannot pay by card which sort of came as a surprise.
Will we be back? Maybe to try the pie, it looked promising. But for 40 zloti (2 baguettes and one coffee) there are better brunches in town.
