Kubicki restaurant in Gdańsk survived the Free City of Danzig, World War II, and the era of communism, and is now celebrating its 100th year of service. It is a cosy and romantic venue, perfect for a spontaneous dinner date – though at weekends you’ll need to book a table in advance. Menu-wise, try the crayfish soup and the local Gdańsk style pierogi. It also happens to be the oldest restaurant in Gdańsk.

2. Eat in a potato-only restaurant

Believe it or not, there is a wonderful little restaurant in Gdańsk famous for its potato-dominated menu. Pyra Bar is the perfect place to have a date where you can only eat potato! Well, with a few other interesting items thrown in. They have potato cakes, potato bread, potato casserole and even potato-based desserts. It’s a definite way to impress your partner while also sipping good cocktails, beers or the homemade kefir.

Get locked in a room together and try to escape

Once you have broken the ice on your date, head to Escape Rooms where you’ll be locked in a room together and need to solve a puzzle to escape! There are six themed rooms, all with unique and secret challenges: the Amber Room, the Lab Of Dr. Lev Pasted, the Office Of John Monroe, the Room Of The Lost Child, the Flight No. C4, and the Exorcism. The price for two people is 98 PLN ($20 USD).

Attend a Lechia Gdańsk match

Gdańsk’s beloved local football team Lechia Gdańsk play in a huge amber-themed stadium in the city’s Stadion Energa. This stadium was used in Euro 2012 and has a huge capacity of 43,165. It’s not just about the match either – a day out here is full of fun and surprises. Pre-match you can arrange a tour of the stadium, head to the supporters club shop, have a beer and lunch in the green and white bar and meet the lion! This lion is the lucky charm and mascot of Lechia Gdańsk. Make sure you weer green and white colours and sit in the home end. When the crowd sings, get to know the songs and cheer on the team.
