TOP 10: The best breakfasts

Middle Eastern cuisine seems to be a local phenomenon in Ochota that attracts many people. There are numerous options: the Lebanese, Moroccan or Turkish breakfasts served at reasonable prices (and you can eat to your heart’s content). Start your day with a cup of coffee with cardamom and your day will be perfect.

This tiny venue in Żoliborz offers vegetarian and vegan cuisine. For breakfast, you can have granola, tofu scramble, and shakshouka. However, brace yourself for long queues.

This venue is something. In the neighbourhood, there is a limited choice of places where one can drink coffee. Not only do they serve here excellent coffee but also seasonal breakfasts. Challah is baked on the spot. Combinations of tastes are simple, yet surprising. 

SAM has its bistros at three different locations. However, venues located in Żoliborz and Powiśle are the best when it comes to breakfasts. And breakfasts here are excellent- good ingredients, unconventional combinations and a wide range of food options. These venues are very popular thus brace yourself for long queues. Still, when it occurs, consider buying breakfast ingredients in their shops located on the premises.

Fantastic local place in Żoliborz with a great atmosphere. It operates from morning till evening. You can eat breakfast (served till 4 PM), later in the evening pizza and drink a glass of wine. Havana can boast of a fantastic terrace. Let’s enjoy spending time there before it gets cold. Breakfasts with the Middle Eastern twist – challahs, yogurts, dips such as baba ghanoush (eggplant).

Perfect for autumn. French selection of slightly heavier tastes. Croque Madame and Croque Monsieur, Kozimierz and Żolikozi (these two options are a real blast!). Don’t worry, you will eat here a salad or croissant as well. And in the evening drop by and visit the elder brother of Krem, Monsieur Leon.

A kosher vegan all you can eat buffet served only on Sundays (10 AM-3 PM). Delicious and interesting. You eat at the common table, where you can feel the community spirit. Interesting experience!

Nancy Lee is such an inconspicuous place! Located in the very centre of the city, next to Szpitalna Street. Excellent toasts (be careful as the portions are huge!), omelets and croissants. Fine coffee, options for vegetarians and vegans. Unpretentiousness which we highly value.

Breakfasts here are served throughout the day. You can eat shakshuka, millet or quinoa bowl. If you had a heavy night try out the beneficial properties of bao and ramen.

So far breakfasts here were served only on Sundays. Right now you can eat them every day. Vegan and vegetarian options such as shakshuka with chickpeas, eggs with tomatoes and yogurt, fruit crumble and granola. Reasonable prices.
