Decent

Food was okay, maybe an 8/10 on a good day. Portion sizes tended towards the smaller side. Staff were friendly and spoke English.

Pros: reasonably priced

Cons: less than 5 vegan options

Nice Polish vegetarian and vegan food!

If you're also not a fan of international cuisine that's the same everywhere (enough with the veggie burger!!!), this place makes nice vegetarian and vegan Polish food

Nice café with vegan options

On our last day in Krakow, we got up a bit earlier to have breakfast and realized that none of the vegan places were open yet. While we do prefer to support fully vegan businesses we were hungry and went for the nearest vegetarian option instead.

We got the pancakes which were very filling, but unfortunately, we had had the excellent pancakes at Sufeat a few days before and the ones at Cafe Młynek couldn't quite keep up.

Service was really friendly, however, and it's a good option when it's early. It's close to Kazimierz but not expensive at all.

Pros: Vegan options, Friendly staff

Bigos, placki ziemniaczane, barszcz.

W restauracji panuje bardzo klimatyczna atmosfera. Serwują sporo wegańskich opcji. Porcje są w porządku, choć niedługo po wizycie byłam znów głodna... Jednak smak mało charakterny. Musiałam dać dużo pieprzu i soli, żeby mi posmakowało.

nice place

We had a late lunch and a beer here one sunday and it was a nice place for that; I had a polish mushroom and cabbage stew and it was nice to try a traditional polish dish in a vegan version. They also offer vegan desert which, unfortunately, I didn't try (and regretted it after)

Cute place but kitchen closed

I popped in for breakfast but the chef had walked out the day before so there was no food. This looks like a cute little place to hang out but I wouldn’t plan a special meal there as they seem a bit chaotic.

Pros: Nice ambiance

Cons: Kitchen may be closed

Very nice veg cafe

The first time we tried to go (on a Mon eve) they'd closed the kitchen early (think somewhere between 8-9pm?). However, tried again the next day & had cabbage & mushroom stew with local beer. Ended up going again later on holiday, tried 2 kinds of veg dumplings - excellent.

good vegan options

Had lunch here - delicious soup (I had broccoli and husband had beetroot) followed by latkes. Food was filling, tasty and cheap, although the latkes were a bit too oily and hubby's weren't well seasoned. Not bad though.
Had quite a lot of choice for vegans

Okay

A nice vegetarian cafe with friendly staff. We went ther for dinner - the food wasn't bad but it could have been better...
On the other hand it was very cheap! Sadly we didn't have enough time in the morning to enjoy breakfast there- they offer a full vegan breakfast, as well as a sweet one and gluten free vegan pancakes.
All in all it is a nice cafe for a snack, but don't expect too much for that price:)

Pros: Clearly labeled vegan and gluten free options

Cons: Food is nothing special/average, some vegan labeled dishes contain yoghurt, honey...?

Good food

Went there for lunch and had the latkes which were very good, they came with either sour cream or the vegan option came with mushroom sauce, which was really good. My mom got the polish stew which was also super tasty, and came with some awesome bread. Relaxed place serving authentic polish food, with lots of vegan options.

Disappointment

Went there for breakfast 8.30 as HappyCow states they open at 8.00. Staff told us that it opens at 8 for only hotel guests and we have to wait until 9 to order. No apology, no way to make it better. We had to suggest that maybe we order coffee and wait. After asking about what's vegan in the menu (some items were not clearly marked..) we ordered lattes. When we got them it turned out they were made with cow milk. After asking about it we received no apology again but only a snide remark that we didn't specify what milk we wanted (we thought it was clear after asking many questions about what's vegan). So couldn't drink the latte because I'm lactose intolerant on top of being vegan. After we received our breakfast we found that the pancakes looked deep fried because they were cooked with so much oil. The vegan breakfast was nothing to write home either. Even with the payment we had trouble; it didn't ho through. Again we were offered no apology - we got "it's not our fault" instead of " I'm sorry there is nothing we can do but wait". All in all I'd say the place is seriously overpriced, ridiculously overhyped and dangerously confortable with their standing.

Beautiful with live music

The cafe was very cute with outdoor and indoor seating, they had a live band playing piano and double bass. The staff very friendly and spoke quite good english and there was an english menu. I order the Lecso which was a Hungarian ratatouille which was delicious although my friend didn't really like her noodles. Gluten free options available.

OK

We had some snacks here in the afternoon.

Staff was a bit slow and forgot to bring some of the stuff we ordered. It was cleared up later (so we didn't have to pay for it). Some stuff was a bit too greasy for our taste.
Maybe it was just a bad day for the waiter.

Overall this is a nice place with a nice atmosphere. If we visit Krakow again, we will give it another try.

Pros: nice atmosphere

Cons: lack of attention to detail

My favourite place in Krakow!

First time I was here last year (2015) and then I just fell in love with this place! Quit small, but comfy place to eat breakfast, dinner or just drinkin' coffee, wine, beer etc. Menu is more vegetarian than vegan, but there is few of vegan meals. Especially I recommend pastas. Stuff talks understandable english and are also friendly. Nice restaurant with good location!

Pros: good location, friendly staff, tasty food

Cons: small, more vegan meals

Nice vegan dessert

Stopped by for dessert at lunchtime and had a nice vegan date and almond thing (can't remember exactly). Lemonade was also nice. Would reccomend! Lots of vegan options. They did however put nuts on top of my friend's drink without asking, which was an issue as she is mildly allergic.

Pros: Lots of vegan options, Good location in Jewish district, Good food

Cons: Nuts came on drink unexpectedly

Great Breakfast & Bigos

I ate here on several occasions. Had the Vegan Breakfast (strange but great!) and the Bigos (fantastic) and Corn Pancakes (okay). Location great, service fast and friendly, super cheap and lits of choice. I've uploaded a couple of pics too. Round the corner from Nova - another great Vegan eatery. Definitely recommend this place!

A solid option

I found Cafe Mlynek solid, but a little uninspired. All the pierogi are non-vegan, which is a real shame. I wanted to try some Polish food so I had bigos, which was a cabbage and mushroom stew. It was really tasty and had a good kick, though the bread it was served with was a little dry. I thought the portion sizes were a little small (my boyfriend is vegetarian so he had some pierogi, but it was just a plate of dumplings, no salad or anything), so getting more than one course is advisable. However, the vegan starters were both hummus-based and there's only one vegan dessert, which I was willing to try - but nobody came back to take our order. All in all, it was good but not mind-blowing.

Impressive vegan breakfast!

I came here with my girlfriend on a Sunday morning for their vegan breakfast.

The serving was huge: a massive salad, 3 types of bean paste, pesto, basket of bread and fried tofu with carrot.

It came with unlimited tea/coffee for a fantastic price, and was so filling we couldn't even finish the bread (which never happens to us!)

Great place, big menu but not a huge amount of vegan options. Lovely big vegan breakfast for cheap though!

Pros: Huge portion, Good food and service

Cons: Need more vegan options
