The 10 best breakfast places in Warsaw
The premises of a former grocery store have been transformed into a true work of art, with pastel swans on the walls, moderately eccentric furniture, and bright color accents. However, the main focus here is on breakfasts, which are probably the most photogenic in Warsaw. Iron trays, vintage ice cream bowls, unusual egg stands, and dishes with portions of homemade butter are all part of the beautiful presentation.
The audacious vegan project Lychees operates exclusively for breakfast half of the day (from 9:00 to 16:00), and from 17:00 onwards, it transforms into a place that serves incredibly elaborate sandwiches. The menu is compact and unconventional, but it can never become tiresome – it features a blend of Polish, Asian, and Middle Eastern influences, seasoned with a good dose of imagination and courage.
The place that embraces the Danish approach to breakfast, minimalist yet perfectly balanced. Simplicity, quality, and locally sourced ingredients are the key players at Baken. Their bread is only homemade, artisanal, and sourdough; cheese and butter come from local farmers, and the eggs are free-range. From all these elements, every morning they create simple and straightforward, yet absolutely stunning dishes.
A bar with natural wines and an ideal spot for breakfasts – it seems that such a combination of concepts was simply destined to appear in Warsaw. From Tuesday to Friday, from 9:00 to 14:30, Rascal temporarily turns into a specialty coffee shop, serving straightforward breakfasts. In the evenings, it transforms into a wine bar resembling Wonderland – with an excellent selection of natural wines and a delightfully crazy atmosphere.
A modest, straightforward, and timeless place. The local menu features robust and expertly prepared French classics: a vast selection of Croque Monsieur, including variations with smoked salmon or burrata, a food-porn section with raclettes and fondues, including a recipe with Mont d'Or cheese, confit tomato omelet, and goat cheese cheesecake.
A small place hidden between the equally grey Warsaw houses instantly captures your heart – it's almost always lively, with almost all guests being regulars, and the atmosphere of a craft establishment is evident as soon as you step inside. All bagels are baked on-site, and the approach to the quality of fillings commands respect.
A small chain of cafés and bakeries that has long and successfully focused on breakfasts. The places are always crowded, with a non-intrusive atmosphere that embodies the essence of a well-done urban café with all the comforts.
In the café of the Le Royal Méridien Bristol hotel, modern breakfast meets a classic café atmosphere that could just as easily be found in Art Nouveau Vienna. The Bristol remains famous for its fine patisserie and a changing selection of cakes to delight the palate and the eye.

Simple and straightforward breakfasts that remain relevant for already 10 years, and rightfully so. In Bułkę przez Bibułkę, you'll find tried-and-true classics such as oatmeal, pancakes, croissants with honey and jam, omelets, and Turkish-style eggs. The prices are affordable, the quality of ingredients consistently good, and breakfasts are served all day.
