Celebrate Summer at the Breweries Get your groove on at Browary this summer.
Browary Warszawskie (Warsaw Breweries) is the capital’s latest urban renewal achievement - a 4.5-hectare area in the heart of Wola that has been transformed from a forgotten industrial plot into a vibrant microcosm of culture, gastronomy and nightlife. Formerly the site of the Haberbusch & Schiele Brewery, today’s revamped Browary complex beautifully mixes bold modern architecture with historic brick buildings, industrial-chic interiors with green commons, and commercial spaces with residential comforts, including the capital’s first ‘woonerf’ and five public squares. From a visitor’s perspective, it’s more than an urban planning triumph, but a bona fide destination for drinks, dining, relaxation and entertainment. Special events, happenings and activities for all ages take place here throughout the year, making it a popular meeting place, day and night. 20
A Democracy of Tastes When it comes to dining, Browary offers a densely packed and diverse community of gastro points where you’re sure to find your tastes represented and you can try the latest projects from the capital’s most creative culinary influencers. At the apex is Food Hall Browary (p.88) - a casual indoor food market with 11 contemporary food concepts from around the world. Next door - at the very heart of the complex’s historical legacy and modern revival - Browar Warszawski (Warsaw Brewery) offers 18 varieties of craft beer brewed in plain view, plus a full card of food, from grilled steaks to fresh seafood
