In the beautifully restored Stara Strzelnica (Old Shooting Gallery), this restaurant is off the beaten path, but the architecture alone justifies a trip. Located in Wola Justowska - an affluent neighbourhood west of the centre, the almost entirely wood and glass historical building dates back to the 1880s and was used as a shooting range by the Kraków Rifle Association and later by Piłsudski's Polish Legions. With high ceilings and a warm timber glow, this place has a great atmosphere, and the concise menu offers beautifully presented modern Polish and European cuisine which changes every few weeks (holdovers include the excellent shrimp pierogi, pork tenderloin and wiener schnitzel). Surrounded by a small park and playground, the restaurant also boasts its own parking; or you can get there via a 20min bus ride and short walk (take buses 102, 134, 152, 192, 252 or 902 and get off at 'Strzelnica'). If you're looking for a very unique dining destination that won't break the bank, this might be it.
