As the name of this cafe bar suggests it specialises in Vodka. Or, as the proprietors put it on their business card - "We just like vodka". We do indeed and, at Wodka you can sample various makes, flavours and types. So much so that I should try and ensure that your hotel is not too far away as you may find that walking in a straight line is rather more difficult after you leave than when you went in.
It's a small bar with whitewashed walls, decorated by a few black and white pictures, a couple of tables down stairs and a few more upstairs, where you'll also find the space-capsule like toilet.
The staff are young, friendly and helpful. Ask them to recommend a type of vodka, maybe by flavour or sweetness and they'll be happy to do so. On our last visit the barman poured us his favourite -Soplica Gorzka - as they say in Yorkshire "By Gum, that'll put hairs on your chest". Roughly translated that means it was very strong and very, very good (we have a small bottle in our freezer)
As it is only a hop, skip and stagger from where we were staying in Krakow Wodka became our favoured spot for a nightcap .. or two!
