Kresowa

Gdańsk


Take your taste buds to Poland’s long-lost east and beyond at this two-level, 19th-century period restaurant with the mood of an Imperial-era Chekhovian parlour. Start with Ukrainian borscht, order a main of Lviv trout and finish with Polish cheesecake while sipping homemade kvas (partially fermented bread and water). There's even bison goulash for those who dare to ask.
