A few tips from a local foodie

If you’re serious about trying Greek food in Krakow, focus on the neighborhoods a local would hit. Kazimierz is a good bet, especially if you want a place with character and an informal atmosphere. Mythos is a favorite for casual mezze sharing, and they don’t scrimp on the olives or feta. On the other hand, Grecka Kolacja by the Old Town is where I usually grab a quick but satisfying souvlaki after a day of wandering.

Also, don’t underestimate parking challenges if you’re driving,these spots are tucked into some of Krakow’s narrower streets. And a heads-up: Greek portions here tend to be generous, so maybe skip the appetizer if you plan on enjoying a main dish or two.
