Brut Bistro

RestaurantBib Gourmand€€2.6 km

Chef Janek Wojtalik and sommelier Maciek Łyko, who worked together at Kontakt in Warsaw, have brought their knack for full-flavoured cooking and passionately curated wine lists to Gdańsk. Their simply styled bistro has a proper neighbourhood feel, which is reflected in the generous pricing and friendly service. The menu blends a Polish heart with international influences, such as pork chop cooked over wood then served with ponzu and an Asian-style slaw. Smaller, natural producers are favoured in the interesting wine selection.

Hewelke

RestaurantBib Gourmand€€3.3 km

Gdańsk’s famous brewer and astronomer Johannes Hevelius lends a variant of his surname to this trendy spot situated in, appropriately enough, a former brewery. The stylish interior includes a vaulted brick ceiling, exposed steel support columns and the odd flash of neon. The dishes adopt influences from around the globe and, seeing as this operates as both a bakery and a restaurant, it's no surprise that the fresh bread and the desserts are highlights. In a nod to Hevelius, the cocktails are named after planets.

Sztuczka

Restaurant€€€1.2 km

Situated opposite the striking architecture of the Museum of the Second World War, this restaurant boasts elegant contemporary design, where brightly coloured banquettes and velour chairs blend with globe pendant lights and a parquet floor. The dishes – built on French classics like beef tartare and turbot with beurre blanc – are detailed, well-composed and blissfully free of superfluous elements. The friendly service team show palpable pride in their work.

MDWA

Restaurant€€€€1.3 km

Tucked away inside the Hilton hotel, to the rear of its main Mercato restaurant, is this intimate eight-table spot centred around the deeply personal cuisine of Chef Dominik Karpik. Kashubian heritage and the abstract painter Wojciech Fangor also influence a tasting menu filled with creativity and colour – the bread course is a real event and the dessert may require you to get involved yourself. The whole experience is totally immersive and well-guided by an engaging team.

Mercato

Restaurant€€€1.3 km

Offering tasting menus named after nearby streets, this restaurant on the ground floor of the Hilton takes its inspiration from the markets of Gdańsk. Its history as a port city means this could include global influences alongside local produce such as fine Pomeranian lamb. The chefs' skill comes through in their sourcing of high-quality ingredients and deft balancing of flavours. An à la carte is available too, and the charming staff explain the dishes with pride.

Piwna47

Restaurant€€1.4 km

An unpretentious, friendly vibe is key to the charms of this Old Town brasserie, which is found down a cobbled street in the shadow of the impressive St. Mary's Basilica. The bright conservatory extension makes a great spot for lunch, while the more rustic upstairs room allows you to create a contrasting experience at dinner. Hearty, generous cooking is inspired by the culinary heritage of the Pomeranian region, with locally sourced seasonal produce given centre stage. Time-honoured dishes come with an appealing modern touch, as well as the occasional Mediterranean influence.

Niesztuka

Restaurant€€1.5 km

There’s a mysterious, secretive feel to this restaurant tucked away inside a historic house, which sits surrounded by amber jewellers in the heart of the Old Town. Its ground floor has long high-topped tables that lend themselves to communal dining, while the first floor offers a bit more privacy. A concise menu uses excellent daily produce, with a distinct South American influence running through the dishes – from classic ceviche to delicious corn husk ice cream and meringue for dessert.

Fino

Restaurant€€€1.6 km

The city’s Old Town plays host to this understated restaurant surrounded by attractive period buildings. The elegant interior benefits from modern art for sale on the walls and floral arrangements adding a pop of colour. An overtly seasonal menu means you might be treated to superb, full-flavoured deer when the time is right; but there’s a luxury edge to the offering all year round, with ingredients like Oscietra caviar utilised with skill by the chefs. The friendly service stands out for the enthusiasm and knowledge of the team.
