About this experience
When traveling, food isn’t just eating—it’s the key to understanding a place and its people. Every dish tells a story of history, traditions, and daily life. Choosing where to eat can be overwhelming in Warsaw, but that’s where we come in! With over 10 years of experience and countless happy customers, you’re in great hands!
Join our small-group food tour and see Warsaw like a local. Taste the flavors of our childhood (our moms would approve!) while discovering the city’s stories. Visit unique spots and enjoy must-try Polish classics—pierogi, soups, stews, local sausages, snacks, beer, and vodka. It’s more than a meal—it’s an experience!
We will share the history, traditions, and everyday stories behind each dish (including a few we probably shouldn’t have admitted in school). Come hungry, leave happy, and discover the real flavors of Poland with us.
After the tour, you’ll get a summary with Polish recipes and top local tips—so your culinary adventure continues!
