"During the communist era, milk bars could be found in every Polish city. These were canteen-style restaurants where workers could come and eat decent, inexpensive portions of simple food in a no-nonsense setting. Despite their popularity in the 1970s and 1980s, most of the milk bars died away as the Polish restaurant scene was rapidly modernized; however, the few that survived are now increasingly treasured as an important part of Poland's cultural heritage. U Stasi is well-known for its friendly service (something that milk bars traditionally lacked) while Bar Mleczny Górnik (Miners' Bar) is basic to the core in all ways except the food, which is consistently good and outrageously cheap."

Not the friendliest service at the counter and there are no English menus, but it appears to be more of a local place to grab a quick affordable meal. The pierogi ruskie were very good. The warm buraczki (beets) were not my favorite. See attached menu. Our entire meal for 2 people cost 18 zl.

Affordable typical Polish milkbar. It's nice and cosy, but if you don't speak English it's not perfect- the vendor rarely helps here and the menu is in Polish. It's really busy so come on your own and get complained at or bring a Polish speaker.

Cozy place with 5 tables that you’ll likely share with other customers. Food was good and prices were unbelievably low.

Soups were delicious! Prices are very low but many of the menu options were not available.

If you are in the area this is a simple canteen style cafe. It is no frills. They serve traditional polish food at very cheap prices. Dumplings and bigios cost 12. The dumplings r ok and bigios was nice but a bit salty.

Great local food. I had zurek (fermented rye soup) and pierogi miesem i kapusta ("ravioli" with meat and cabbage). Also get kompost on the side.

Delicious food, very local. Very difficult to find someone who speaks English since it is not a place for tourist but very recommended. Also very cheap, full meal 18 zl

Dirt cheap and tasty, but tiny and absolutely no english anywhere in sight (or hearing). I was glad we had a semi-local to bring us in, because this was one of my favorite meals in Krakow, but without him to translate I'd have struggled. The menu is limited, and all in Polish, seating is extremely limited, and this is a very old school milk bar, but a plate full of pierogies cost me less than $3. If you're looking for local and cheap, a good find, but don't expect to get by in english without help!

That's where I'm going at night when U Stasia is closed! Try their smothie there and ask the chef recommendation of the day!

The most amazing pierogi around!! No English, but who cares when you have amazing food?? And dirt cheap too. Be prepared to order quickly (kinda like the Seinfeld soup kitchen!) and may not find a seat. At least try the Ruskie Pierogi!

I ordered the prix fixe lunch: one large bowl of soup, one turkey goulash with boiled potatoes, one small tomato salad, and one fruit juice/compote - all for $4! Not only was it cheap, but it was also delicious. Remember: it's a milk bar, so it's not fancy, there's no English, they don't take credit, and sometimes people have to share tables. But the food quality, value, and experience are more than worth it, in my opinion. (If you don't want to eat there, bring tupperware, and they'll fill it up for you to take home or on a picnic.)
