Concordia Design

A design and coffee hub in a restored printworks near Plac Wolnosci with strong espresso and a co-working buzz. Good for a mid-tour break.

Reviewed and updated July 2026

Concordia Design occupies a restored 19th century printing house on Zwierzyniecka, in the Jezyce district just west of Plac Wolnosci. It is a design and creative centre as much as a cafe, with co-working space, offices and events under the same roof. The cafe part draws a working crowd and makes a good stop away from the old town.

Espresso in a restored printworks

The draw is strong espresso in a large industrial-style room. The building keeps its old brick and big windows, reworked into a modern interior of concrete and glass. It is the kind of place where people settle in with a laptop, so it suits a longer break rather than a quick stand-up coffee. Food and menus change, so check current offerings on the venue's channels.

Good for a mid-tour break

Come here for a mid-tour break, remote work over coffee, or a quieter sit-down than the square-side terraces. Design fans get the added draw of the building and its rotating exhibitions and shop.

Near Plac Wolnosci

The location is a short walk from Plac Wolnosci and about ten minutes from the Stary Rynek. Nearby food options include the milk bar Bar Caritas on Plac Wolnosci and Weranda Caffe for breakfast and cakes. For the wider city, see the Poznan guide.

The building is more than a coffee-and-laptop stop. Alongside the co-working and event space it holds a proper restaurant, Concordia Taste, which works seasonal Polish regional cooking paired with Polish wines. The kitchen is run by chef Adam Adamczak, a Top Chef Polska finalist, and the menu changes with what he brings back from trips around the country.

The restaurant has drawn outside notice: The Guardian listed it among its European recommendations, and it carries two toques in the Gault & Millau guide, one of the higher ratings in Poznan. For opening times and booking, use Concordia Taste's own channels.

Good to know

This is a working hub as well as a cafe, so it is busiest on weekdays. For current opening hours and the food menu, check the venue's official channels.
