BARaWINO | Warszawa - winebar
the deeply curated wine list — ~500 labels with 30+ by the glass, personally selected by sommelier-owner Marek Kondrat
A calm, candlelit wine bar lined with bottles and quiet conversations. Staff are keen to guide you toward a great glass, without fuss. Tucked off the main flow, it draws curious wine lovers and relaxed dates.
In Śródmieście Południowe, Warsaw. Easy to fold into a morning or a longer afternoon; there's usually something else worth a stop within a few minutes' walk.
BARaWINO is a wine bar and wine shop in Warsaw's Śródmieście Południowe founded by Marek Kondrat — a celebrated Polish actor turned sommelier. The concept is modeled on the French bar-à-vin: roughly 500 wine labels personally curated by Kondrat with over 30 available by the glass, paired with chef Jacek Kuźmicki's small plates drawing from Italy, Spain, France, and Portugal. Reviews consistently highlight knowledgeable, friendly staff who guide guests through the list without pretension, a creative tapas-style menu, and surprisingly moderate prices for the quality. The atmosphere is intimate and conversation-focused, matching the curator's description of a calm, candlelit room.
