Let me start by saying that every person I've brought to Pozegnanie as a first impression mentioned the smell. The smell of fine coffee, mixed with spices and perhaps something else. When you enter the cafe - at the corner of Florianska and Tomasza street - you're guaranteed to feel that too.
Because it's all about coffee here - just a single look at the decor can say as much. Various coffee utensils - old grinders, pots, walls and stools decorated with old coffee sacks. Old china and pictures taken a long time ago in Krakow coffeehouses complete the setting.
And the menu is quite similar - a wide choice of coffees - the owners keep to doing one thing well (they've expanded into a franchise chain in most of Poland, but this one is the original location - and the best, at least from my experience). Even the sweets have a hint of coffee - or are shaped like coffee beans.
One of my favourites here is a thick, strong and sweet Turkish-style coffee - boiled a few times in a brass pot with cardamon and brown sugar - try that for a change from dull espressos or cappuccinos. Unlike most other places, the coffees here are rather prepared on gas stove than using an espresso machine - that is justified by the fact that the coffees here are a cut above the usual cafe stuff.
The prices are moderate - comparable to most other cafes (with the exception of best brands, like Blue Mountain; that one's quite expensive).
