Guide to Warsaw food halls and marketplaces (outdoor & indoor)
Food halls in Warsaw
Are you going out for lunch with friends or family, but everyone wants something different? Does this sound familiar? Food halls will settle restaurant selection fights. They offer a wide variety of ethnic cuisines and local restaurant concepts. Food halls are an excellent solution for breakfast, lunch, or dinner in a group—everyone orders from a different restaurant and eats at a shared table.
