U Fukiera

About

U Fukiera, situated in Warsaw’s historic Old Town, is the city’s oldest restaurant, first opened in the early seventeenth century. Today it thrives under the creative direction of celebrated chef and restaurateur Magda Gessler, whose menu reinterprets classic Polish cuisine with modern techniques and global influences. The townhouse’s interiors have been lovingly restored to preserve their original grandeur—vaulted ceilings, intricate wood paneling, and antique chandeliers create an atmosphere that feels both timeless and inviting. Guests are treated to a dining experience that marries history, art, and gastronomy, where every dish is presented as a work of culinary art. Whether savoring hand‑crafted pierogi, silky borsch, or delicate salads, each plate is thoughtfully paired with an extensive wine list featuring local Polish vintages and international favorites. The restaurant also hosts private events, workshops, and tasting evenings, reinforcing its status as a cultural landmark in Warsaw.
