Very close to where we stayed. Nice looking restaurant. Atmosphere was lovely because it was some kind of party. We had to wait at the hall few min and our ordered food wasn't that great as expected. Over all would advise to visit they have live traditional music. After few years it hasn't change all same all. Still pop in with friends for quick dinner.
Karczma Przy Młynie is truly authentic and atmospheric. The live music really adds to the pleasant vibe. A big plus is their own parking, which is super handy. We got here early, around 5 PM, and it was half-empty. We sat at an outdoor table with a lovely view of a real water mill. The service was pleasant, fast, and polite. They serve traditional Polish food, and our dishes were tasty and fresh. Nothing exceptional, though. The prices are reasonable, on par with what you'd expect in Zakopane.
Very nice place to eat. We ordered "Grilled beef shish kebab" and it was super. Perfectly grilled! Meat was juicy and tender. Cheese was the perfect side with beef and potatoes. Portion size was perfect for us. Friendly service. Recommended place!
The best restaurant we have been to in Zakopane. There is live music, amazing service and great food. We were 8 so we have tried many different dishes and everything was delicious. The pancakes were outstanding, pirogi, lamb chops and beef sirloin were very tasty too. I can definitely recommend this place!
Came here as it was recommended by our host where we stay to celebrate wife’s birthday. It’s beautifully decorated, an authentic Zakopane style restaurant, woody interior with live music. Food was really amazing, loved the wild mushroom soup and the amazing lamb chops. Higly recommend this place.
Pretty authentic galician food with a nice tatra interior. We had a great time here
Super authentic place in Zakopane. Great food, close from center… the building has amazing exterior as well as interior. I can recommend this place for dinner! They accept credit cards and staff speaks English. We had two soups and one “halusky” from the starters and it was enough.
