Kurna Chata

A rustic timber room near the Market Square doing filling regional dishes.

Reviewed and updated July 2026

Kurna Chata is a rustic, timber-lined restaurant a short walk from the Market Square, trading on old country-cottage style and filling regional cooking. The name refers to a traditional smoke hut, and the fit-out leans into that: wood, folk touches and a warm, informal room.

Filling regional dishes

The kitchen does filling regional Polish dishes, the kind of hearty plates that suit a cold day and a good appetite. Menus at places like this shift with the season, so treat the excerpt as a guide to the style and read the current card in the room. Portions tend to be generous rather than refined.

The rustic timber room

Cosy and rustic, built around the folk-cottage theme. It is a comfortable, unpretentious room for a proper sit-down meal rather than a quick bite, and the styling gives it a clear sense of character.

Who it suits

Good for travellers who want traditional Polish food in a themed setting, and for groups after a hearty, sociable dinner. Families are at home here, and the central location keeps it convenient after a day in the Old Town.

Near the Market Square and nearby

With the Market Square close by, you can eat here and be back among the bronze dwarfs and the Old Town Hall in minutes. For a cheaper, faster take on Polish staples, see Bar Mis. The Wroclaw guide maps the centre.

It is at ul. Odrzanska 24/29, a short walk from the Market Square. The kitchen works in the traditional Polish register at moderate prices, and listings point to żurek (soured rye soup), gulasz and fried kopytka (potato dumplings) among the specialities, with mulled wine on the drinks side. Portions are described as generous. Confirm current hours and the menu through the restaurant's own channels.

Good to know

A popular central restaurant can fill up in the evening, so consider booking at busy times. Check current opening hours and the menu with the restaurant before you go.
