A go to place for fake meats and more - Edit
The "schabowy" is what made this place famous in Warsaw and that's probably why, every two weeks when there is a new menu, you always can find it. It's really good and tastes almost like the real deal.
Read moreEvery time I ate there I wasn't disappointed, the food was great and the size of meals was just perfect. The price is not the lowest but there are lunch options, entrees and fast foods which are somewhat cheaper.
A great place to try polish dishes which normally are with meat and not only that. Every two weeks there are dishes from around the world also.
Pros: Amazing food, Big portions, Friendly staff
Cons: Some dishes a bit too pricey

Traditional heavy Polish cuisine - Edit
I heard a lot of good things about this place from my friend and visited when was in Warsaw. I was a little bit disappointed. Everything was heavy, greasy - mostly fried, no any fresh salads. I ate one set meal in the restaurant and the second one to take away, the taste was ok, but I prefer lighter food with fresh salads.
Read morePros: Big portions, Not expensive
Cons: Heavy and greasy, no fresh green salad in the set menu

Delicious Polish food - Edit
This place is really bright and spacious, a nice relaxing restaurant. The staff explained the menu to us in English, and said that the menu changes quite often but the "schabowy classic" is a constant fixture, so we had to try it. It was like a huge, delicious schnitzel served with mashed potato and salad. The soy steak was juicy, crispy and delicious! It was a really hearty, satisfying meal.

Wonderful Polish cuisine with a healthy twist - Edit
Similar in simplistic hipster interior decor to the other vegan spots in Warsaw, this bistro is cosy spot for a vegan, mouth-watering take on traditional Polish cuisine. We had a Schnitzel with mashed potato and cucumber salad - definitely the best schnitzel-style vegan "meat" we've tried. The breading, neither oily nor dry, complemented the "meat" instead of overpowering it and the overall taste as well as texture surprisingly authentic. Another dish we tried consisted of veggie patties, perfectly roasted whole carrots and cabbage salad. A very rich (not in the sense of "oily"!) Polish soup/stew rounded our meal off. It was easily my favorite dish, a caleidoscope of flavours created by the potatoes, very savoury kielbasa-style veg sausage, vinegar and herbs. One of the best dinners we had in Warsaw for sure.

Ok here we go - Edit
This place is basically Warsaw's equivalent of London's Black Cat Café. In other words it's absolutely great. I had a 'refugee burger' (basically a burger with vaguely Middle Eastern flavours) and a beautifully peanutty/fruity milkshake. Highly recommend. Most days I'm alive I'm sad I don't live in Warsaw so I could eat here.

Yummy vegan food - Edit
I finally got to try some 'traditional' polish food! It was good, tasty food and they serve beer. The staff speak English and there's an English menu. My omni boyfriend had a burger and loved it. I think the most expensive dish was 25zl (~£5).
Read morePros: Great food, Locally inspired dishes
Cons: Ran out of most dishes (we went late at night)

Traditional polish food - Edit
Modern and cozy place at center of Warsaw that serves traditional polish food in vegan style at inexpensive price.

The food is good but no amazing. sometimes is to much heavy, they put a lot of greasy sauces to everything.

A solid vegan bistro in Warsaw - Edit
I was impressed with Lokal, they do vegan versions of traditional polish food and accomplish their goal quite well. I just wouldn't exactly call it healthy, the food is balanced and fresh but with many high-fat sauces which is a PERSONAL turn-off. Many people would really enjoy it but it's just not for me, however I do recommend it!
Read morePros: Tasty food, Fresh ingredients, Hip atmosphere
Cons: High-fat sauces, "Heavy" food, Kind of pricey

Huge meals - Edit
This is a very cool spot with nice atmosphere. We were looking for more traditional Polish food done in a vegan style and this was the place. The dishes rely a lot on cabbage and potatoes with soy meat done in different styles. They warned us that the plates are large but the meals are really huge. You don't need a starter and you won't have room for dessert. Show up if you're hungry it's good value for money. They also have a small selection of local microbrews. The staff were really helpful even though we showed up close to closing time. If you're in the mood for a big meal of Polish comfort food this is the place.

Polish comfort food - Edit
The bistro offers homemade-style dishes that are typically served in Polish homes, including some of our comfort foods, veganized.
Read moreThe interior is very spacious and bright, but not fancy. Again, feels like home.
The food is very tasty and reasonably priced. Big portions.
Offers not-so-healthy indulgence food, as well as healthier options for a proper meal.

Extremely boring. Can't recommend. - Edit
I'm really impressed of vegan boom in Warsaw, but should notice, that not every vegan spot would become a something special. I can't recommend the third main dish in menu (soy steak with potatoes and salad), because it's almost boring and not healthy vegan dish. It hasn't fantasy. Moreover, I'm pretty sure, that this soy steak isn't organic. It costs very little money in ordinary polish supermarket. Potatoes is also very cheap veggie and extremely simple as a salad. You can't name a dish as a "traditional polish" if you just offer a bit of soy instead of meat. It can't costs 16 zl. It's not organic. So, unfortunately, i can't recommend this place at all, maybe, you can try another dishes, but not the third one...

Cons: Boring (not simple!)

Very Tasty Traditional Polish Food Veganzed! - Edit
This is a great choice for a restaurant if you are looking for very tasty traditional Polish food made vegan.
Read moreI ordered a pasta with a white cream vegan sauce, and it was quite tasty, but I more enjoy my friend's Polish soy 'schnitzel'. I have been told that this is very close to the original traditional dish. Either way, it was delicious.
This restaurant does fill up, so if you are looking for a quick bite, you might want to call ahead to see if there are tables.
Pros: Delicious traditional vegan Polish food

Vegan Polish Heaven - Edit
Recently opened 100% vegan bistro serves only traditional Polish food. They serve a couple of Polish main courses and soups as well as Polish fast food called "ZAPIEKANKA".The food is delicious and stunning. The prices are very good. Quality the highest. I highly recommend Polish tomato soup- "POMIDOROWA" and traditional Polish main courses- I've tried 3 of them.Everything tastes exactly like my grandma's cuisine. I will be back asap.Portions are big- which is a very Polish thing :) This joins the group of my fav vegan heavens. The place is very popular and usually crowded.

best vegan traditional polish cuisine - Edit
Yummy, tasty, fresh and refreshingly not overengineered menu with traditional polish dishes vegan way. Cozy, yet modest interior fits well the DIY vibe of punk crew that runs this place. Arguable the strongest spot on Warsaw vegan map!

Polish Vegan Comfort Food - Edit
Lokal Vegan Bistro is the newest addition to the ever-growing Warsaw vegan quest.
Read moreThe menu is limited but offers four main dishes (two excellent Polish-inspired options, Penne with tempeh and Goulash), two seasonal soups, two fast food items (seitan kebab and vegetable pie), and some desserts.
We tried the tomato soup with homemade dumplings (polish-style green gnocchi), the beetroot cutlets with millet, and the soy "schnitzel" with mashed potatoes. Everything was beautifully cooked and presented and I'm very eager to try the rest of the menu!
The restaurant is welcoming, bright and spacious, and the staff is very friendly.
Gluten-free. Pet-friendly. Wi-fi and card payments available soon (payments by cash only).
Pros: Tasty food, Bright restaurant, Affordable and friendly
