The things that Popped up the most to me was the good service, nice attitude which is very rare in Poland, if you know you know. Followed very closely by an amazing 11/10 specialty coffee with great price per value. The atmosphere and the place is just as lovely as in the pictures.

Great specialty coffee and nice customer service. New favourite spot for good quality coffee in Krakow. There were few options of dessert but it was good.

I believe the best coffee (and the best flat white) in Krakow can be found at Pop Up. It’s my favorite place, offering a friendly and warm atmosphere, with baristas who are truly passionate about coffee.
