WHERE TO EAT
Racja Mięsa is a bit like a Polish St John, with bare walls and a focus on pork as well as some great local soups. If you can get over your food being served on chopping boards, then head on in. (+48) 515 69 20 20
WHERE TO DRINK
Poznan is a young city with a buzzing nightlife. Chmielnik is our favourite bar, a smart wooden and stone affair with a micro-brewery on-site. The best pint in town bar none. facebook.com/chmielnikpub
WHAT TO SEE
If you’re into beer, this is an excellent tour of the Lech brewery, a famous tipple around these parts. It’s a good combination of geeky – smell the hops! – and impressive, with plenty of opportunity to gawp at the giant copper stills. zwiedzaniebrowaru.pl
