Poland’s biggest dining celebration is back — and this time, it’s the Foodies who are calling the shots. The autumn edition of RestaurantWeek in Poznań has officially started, inviting locals and visitors to discover the city’s most-loved restaurants through a series of three-course tasting menus under the theme #FromFoodiesForFoodies. From Italian finesse to Japanese artistry and daring fusion, this festival is about authentic flavors chosen by people who truly love food.
Discover the Festival
Running from 7 October to 19 November, RestaurantWeek in Poznań celebrates shared meals, creativity, and the joy of dining out. Each participating restaurant offers a three-course menu with a surprise gift — a signature cocktail or a refreshing Pepsi. Prices start at 69.99 zł + 9.99 zł booking fee, with an additional 10 zł for prime-time reservations.
This year’s edition focuses entirely on recommendations from the Foodies community, who have collectively shaped a map of must-try places across the country. Instead of relying on critics or rankings, the spotlight falls on restaurants that have earned loyal followings and rave reviews from diners themselves.
