The Polish seaside port of Gdynia is fast becoming a foodie’s paradise. With its non-commercial, locally run cafés, markets, bars, and restaurants, there is so much choice in a city that houses some of Poland’s most underrated food venues. It’s also not exclusive to Polish cuisine—some of these restaurants have received international acclaim and cuisines from all over the world can now be found in every corner of sparkling Gdynia. As the Polish love to say, “Smacznego!”

1. Pueblo

Restaurant, Mexican, Vegetarian

Mexican food has taken its time to settle in Poland, but those restaurants that pioneered its arrival here are the ones that continue to serve to perfection. While awaiting your starters and main course, you get nachos with dips at Pueblo (which also has venues in Gdansk and Torun). Cocktail choices include the Michelada (spiced Mexican beer) and the Jimador Mojito.

2. Pyra Bar

Bar, Restaurant, Contemporary, Polish, European, Beer

Pyra bar is a local Polish chain which takes its name from the word “potato” in Poznan dialect. With branches in a few cities now, Pyra Bar venues are famous for their multiple tasty dishes made from the finest Polish potatoes. So if you want to see how many interesting and innovative dishes can be made from potatoes, this is the place to be. It is also licensed and serves good desserts.

3. Stuczka

7. Tokyo Sushi
