A beautiful atmospheric restaurant in a cellar.. superb food,very good service. What more could you ask for? No disabled access and down a lot of steps but my husband said it was worth the trouble.

It claims to be the fancy place, but staff speaks English very a little, I was waiting for a cappuccino for 20 minutes regardless I was totally alone in the whole place, furthermore it was almost cold and served in cracked cup, I also had a crack on the plate. I ordered a salad, I have to admit that it... More

Our meal at La Fontaine was the best we had while we were in Krakow. And it wasn't the most expensive, either. The restaurant has a lovely atmosphere and the food was perfect, with lots of little extras such as an amuse-bouche. If you have a choice, don't sit outside but go downstairs to the atmospheric cellar room. One of... More

Sat down in two other restaurants looked at their menus and walked out. So really pleased when we opted for La Fountaine just off the main square. Tasty appetizers compliments of the chef cauliflower mousse and smoked salmon with warm bread rolls. I had seafood taglitelle, delicious and my partner had the fish platter- equally delicious. We then had the... More

A very cozy and dungeon-like top restaurant close to main square. The food was a feast for the pallets and a sight for the eyes.. Highly recommended!

Stumbled on La Fontaine while looking for a late afternoon meal before our flight home. All of us had the best meal of the weekend. About £22 per head.

We wandered into this lovely restaurant by accident. The ambience was lovely. The food was delicious. We just had a few minor complaints. The service was very slow. In addition, we were served wine in chipped glasses and the Rose wine was filled with residue from the bottom of the bottle. However, the worst part of the evening was that... More

This restaurant is located just off the main market square and is a charming converted cellar with vaulted ceilings and lovely atmosphere. Staff were attentive and friendly and we enjoyed chatting with them. The chef is French and the excellent choices of starters and mains reflect this. All dishes bar one starter were excellent. My wife ordered crab, avocado and... More

Nice restaurant near Rynek G. (marketplace). A little bit more expensive than many other good restaurants in Crakow, but quite tasteful dishes. Good service.
