No wonder—a delicious, well-started morning can set the tone for the whole day and is the essence of a successful stay in the capital. And since our townhouse at 4a Nowogrodzka Street is in the heart of Śródmieście, the best breakfast spots are literally within easy reach.
So if you’re wondering where to find the best coffee and perfect scrambled eggs, we’ve prepared a guide to tried-and-tested places just a few minutes’ walk from No.4 Residence.
1. Bułkę przez Bibułkę – a classic in a cosy setting
Address: 6/12 Żurawia Street
Perfect for: Comfort-food lovers, meeting friends and family breakfasts.
We begin with an institution known to most breakfast enthusiasts in Warsaw. “Bułkę przez Bibułkę” is a great choice if you’re looking for something hearty and reliable. Its menu is the essence of breakfast comfort: bagels, filling hot sandwiches, egg dishes in every form, homemade lemonades and a wide selection of teas. The interior is warm and always buzzing. A safe bet that never disappoints.
2. STOR Cafe – for speciality coffee connoisseurs
Address: 18 Bracka Street
Perfect for: Coffee lovers, minimalists and those looking for a place to work.
If exceptional coffee is the most important part of breakfast for you, head to STOR. It’s one of the coolest cafés in Śródmieście, famous for beans from top roasters. A bright interior with huge windows, simple design and quality pastries (their croissants and cinnamon rolls are legendary!) provide everything needed for a perfect morning. It can get busy in the morning, but the atmosphere and coffee make it worthwhile.
3. Charlotte Bouillon – French flair on Nowy Świat
Address: 6/12 Nowy Świat Street
Perfect for: French bistro lovers, a leisurely breakfast, brunch or an evening get-together.
Charlotte Bouillon combines Charlotte’s breakfast character with a menu of warm French dishes. Its bright interior on Nowy Świat, the smell of freshly baked bread and the bustle of the street outside evoke a Parisian boulevard. The menu features croissants and other viennoiserie, tartine sandwiches on Charlotte bread, plus croque monsieur and croque madame, bouillon and French comfort-food classics. It’s ideal for a quick breakfast, but you can also linger over coffee and something warm to eat.
4. Ministerstwo Kawy – a quick hit of caffeine and quality
Address: 66 Marszałkowska Street
Perfect for: People on the go who refuse to compromise on coffee.
Short on time but unwilling to compromise on quality? Drop into Ministerstwo Kawy. As the name suggests, it’s a temple of coffee brewed using alternative methods and espresso machines. You’ll also find delicious cakes and a small bite to eat, such as a sandwich or a seasonal blueberry bun. It’s perfect for those with busy schedules who want to start the day with truly excellent coffee.
Breakfast without leaving – the luxury of peace and privacy
Of course, sometimes the best breakfast is one you don’t have to go out for. At No.4 Residence, guests have fully equipped kitchenettes in their private apartments.
