Babushka Bistro
A highly popular, budget-friendly village bistro specializing in kartacze and kibiny, offering generous portions but often drawing long lines.
This cozy, home-style bistro is located next to the bus stop at Kolejowa 1. It features traditional decor and is open year-round. The menu includes kartacze (large potato dumplings), kibiny (baked pastries), Russian pierogi, Polish pierogi, potato pancakes, and potato babka, with cold soups in summer and solyanka in winter. For dessert, the marcinek cake is a popular choice. Ordering is done at the counter, and lines can be very long during peak hours. Food is served on foam plates, and vegetarian options are limited. Operating days vary across platforms, so it is best to confirm before visiting.
Opening hours
Approx. 11:00–18:00, Sun 12:00–18:00; opening days on Mon–Tue vary by source, so confirmation is advised
