Vapiano

The German based pizza and pasta chain (going since 2002) has its Warsaw flagship eatery situated in a stunningly renovated townhouse just next to the central railway station and opposite the looming Marriott Hotel. The interior has a mix of styles over two levels but the glassed patio area is a particularly impressive feature of the architecture. Everything is pretty swish and well thought out, the most visually pleasing aspect being the open kitchen, where your food is prepared right in front of you. It's also worth noting the food, like the pasta, is made in each of their restaurants, not trucked in from miles away. A great place for a pasta, salad, pizzas and mains, it's constantly packed and incredibly popular with the younger set and office workers. 2nd location in Galeria Moktów.
