On top of being Kraków’s oldest microbrewery (serving a changing range of ales brewed on-site), CK Browar has plenty more going for it including the handsome beer hall interior with copper brewing vats, Tiffany-style lamps and long wooden tables fit for a Viking feast with a fist of grog. Redoubling the barbarian potential is the possibility of getting a five-litre beer tower with its own tap fitted to your table. Damn good times, the downside being that what could be an elegant, even sophisticated, beer cellar is actually a rather loutish lads’ bar noted for bad music, bad service and occasionally bad company - namely intoxicated, unpredictable and sometimes aggressive local boys.
