Instagrammable cafés in Kraków — 5 places for photos and great coffee
Kraków is a city of charming lanes, historic townhouses and cafés that look as good in photos as their coffee tastes. We’ve picked five places in the Old Town and Kazimierz where you can take a great picture and enjoy a good cup of coffee. All of them were checked in October 2026.
Charlotte — Chleb i Wino
At 2 Szczepański Square you’ll find Charlotte, a bistro that takes you straight to Paris. If you love eating breakfast out, this is your place: croissants, freshly baked bread and homemade jams.
It can get busy, but the atmosphere makes up for it. If you like natural light in your photos, you’ll love it here — the simple, rustic interior is a perfect backdrop for morning shots.
Camelot Cafe
Looking for a place with an artistic soul? Cafe Camelot is at 17 Świętego Tomasza Street, in the very heart of the Old Town. Its unusual décor draws both locals and visitors in search of atmospheric shots.
The interior is intimate, as if time had stopped a few decades ago. The menu includes fruit infusions, hot chocolate and wine, and on warm days you can sit at the tables outside.
Bunny Cafe
Coffee with rabbits? Bunny Cafe at 4 Długa Street describes itself as the first café of its kind in Poland. It’s also a rabbit shelter: your visit supports the care and adoption of the animals.
Entry to the café itself is free; access to the rabbit enclosure is paid separately. The enclosure is open to visitors aged 7 and over (children up to 10 with an adult). The café is open daily from 10:00 to 21:00.
Looking for somewhere to have lunch or dinner in Kraków? Try the MidTown restaurant at 6 Świętej Gertrudy Street.
Cafe Botanica
At 9 Bracka Street, a few steps from the Main Square, is Cafe Botanica, a café filled with plants. Its green interior makes it one of the most photogenic coffee spots in the centre.
Mleczarnia
In Kazimierz, at 20 Meiselsa Street, you’ll find Mleczarnia, a café-bar with a garden. It’s a great stop on a walk around the former Jewish quarter, especially on warm days when life moves outdoors.
Two cafés featured in the 2024 version of this article, EL&N London (3 Sławkowska Street) and Skinny Creme (2 Świętego Jana Street), have closed permanently, so we’ve replaced them with new addresses.
Where to stay in Kraków
All the cafés on this list are within walking distance of the centre. Close to the Main Square is Best Western Plus Kraków Old Town (6 Świętej Gertrudy Street, about 500 m from the square), and in Kazimierz Hotel Regent, in a historic townhouse at 19 Bożego Ciała Street.
