U Becza

Top choice in Carpathian Mountains


This handsome cafe and restaurant occupies the Doma Zbója Becza, a 15th-century townhouse on the main square. Step through the carriageway to the period interior, which is pleasantly low-key with heavy-beamed ceilings and wooden furnishings. You may not find better gołąbki (stuffed cabbage rolls) in all of Poland – order them with mushroom sauce.
