Field notes
Ordering is laid out as a five-step sequence: read the board, pay at the till, find a shared seat, collect at the window, and return the tray. The phrase list includes “wolne?” for asking whether a chair is free, while the currency note advises paying in złoty and cites an NBP average of 1 euro to 4.37 zł dated 14 October 2026. The page labels its prices as typical for Kraków and says they vary by bar.
