It's not just Warsaw and Krakow - Gdansk is also famous for its restaurants serving traditional dishes. If you want to feel the true taste of Pomerania, visit one of the iconic places with dishes based on medieval recipes. You'll find them near Dlugi Targ and on the Motlawa River. Baltic herring in cream, delicious Danzig black pudding or pork knuckle with sour cabbage on smoked meat are just a few of the delicacies you'll find on the menu. Don't forget desserts, too - nothing beats the taste of country cottage cheese with homemade jam!
Prefer something more modern? That's great, because you will also find many places serving dishes from all over the world. From Italian pizza, through Mexican taco, to Thai curry and Japanese sushi - Gdańsk will satisfy the palate of even the most demanding gourmets. Just visit Wyspa Spichrzów or Montownia Food Hall, located near the European Solidarity Center, and you will gain access to flavors that will make your head spin!
For lovers of authentic culinary experiences, Gdansk has prepared something special - fairs and food markets! Among the most popular ones are Bazar Natury, the Breakfast Market in the Old Manege and the Green Market at the Gdańsk-Przymorze marketplace. There you can taste artisanal, freshly baked bread, regional cheeses and aromatic cured meats. This is an ideal opportunity to taste unusual treasures of Gdansk cuisine and thus discover flavors unavailable anywhere else.
Gdansk also has no shortage of places where you can enjoy aromatic coffee and delicious desserts. And while you will easily find a place signed with the logo of a well-known brand, we advise you to look for cafes and pastry shops unique to this city. Atmospheric, filled with magical atmosphere, they offer not only coffees from local roasters, but also delicious cakes created by esteemed pastry chefs. We were seduced by the ice cream with Danzig's Goldwasser liqueur. This beverage, which dates back to the 14th century, contains particles of real gold! Be sure to take it home with you - it will bring back memories of your unforgettable trip to Gdansk at any time.
In addition to traditional restaurants and cafes, you can encounter unique cultural and culinary experiences in the form of culinary workshops, food festivals or gastronomic tours. The easiest time to hit them is during the vacations - the summer season is conducive to outdoor events. Some of them, such as St. Dominic's Fair or Food Truck Tastes Festival, have been held in Gdansk for many years, but quite a few events have a temporary character. So don't wait any longer - check out what's happening in the city in the coming days and head to Gdansk for some culinary hunting!

For a family dinner, a meeting with friends or a romantic candlelit dinner - the Tricity is recommended for any occasion!
