Eat

Where to eat

The most convenient eating area is the lakeside promenade, especially in summer. Expect fish, pizza, burgers, Polish dishes, cafés and seasonal ice cream stands. Outside the waterfront, look around the centre near Wojska Polskiego, Sienkiewicza, Czarnieckiego, Jana Pawła II and Mickiewicza streets. Restaurants outside the centre are usually easier by car or bicycle.
