Lublin
Restaurants in Lublin
Lublin's dining leans on the Old Town lanes and Krakowskie Przedmiescie, mixing old-school Polish cooking with a strong cafe and craft-beer streak. Mandragora on Rynek serves Jewish and regional dishes, Hades Szeroka is a long-running favourite for Polish plates, and Kardamon adds a more contemporary kitchen. For something cheaper and local, the milk bar Bar Mleczny Kefirek and the cebularz counter at Cebularnia u Kordiana show off Lublin's own baked speciality.
