Browar Zamość is the city’s best place for some good locally brewed beer in a cosy atmosphere. There are three types of beer on tap – Pszeniczne (wheat beer) Ciemne (dark) or Jasne (light), all home-brewed. The location is also excellent – just a few minutes walk from the famous Old Town Square. The venue sometimes has live music and special events. Beers are often introduced for seasonal periods, like the zielone piwo (green beer) for St. Patrick’s Day and a hot winter beer known as grzane piwo.

For a real treat and a glimpse of Poland’s communist history, Seta i Galareta Zamość fits the bill. It’s a stylish bar aimed to represent the PRL era in Poland, when the country was known as Polska Rzeczpospolita Ludowa and under the control of the Soviet Union. Inside the bar, you can find memorabilia from those days (record players, gramophones, empty tins of old Polish food products, etc.) and it feels like a warp back in time. On the food menu, try the local Pierogi Ruskie (dumplings filled with potato and onion) or the Tatar wołowy (raw steak with vegetables and egg).

3. Bar Copacabana, Zamość

Bar, Polish, Pub Grub
