Barbara — Restaurant in Wrocław

I didn't come here for a long time because I didn't like the coffee shop here. Today I want to say that this is a fabulous place with the most beautiful coffee shop "Słodki chlopak" and an insanely pleasant atmosphere. Service at the highest level. I recommend it to everyone. Also below I will leave an old comment that referred to the Etno coffee shop that used to be here.

today, the manager of etno café infringed upon the freedom of movement rights of four individuals, violating article 41 of the polish constitution and article 107a of the code of offences.

I encountered a situation that left an unpleasant aftertaste. in a restaurant, the manager unreasonably tried to kick me out of the establishment, despite the fact that there was no queue. such behaviour seems to be a manifestation of chauvinism or even xenophobia. moreover, she threatened to call security, but the latter refused to co-operate in such a situation. it is a severe and unjust violation of the law and basic...

This place came to be as a centre for European Capital of Culture in 2016. This kind of places usually have a short lifespan - they work well during the event, but once it's over, they slowly die.

It has a space for children to play, as well as a stage, which is used for wide variety of events - from sociological panels to handcraft workshops. While Wrocław isn't an ECC anymore, this place proudly shows what kind of spirit lives...

Although I have big sentiment to Etno as a brand and once a place for really good coffee, I have to say that it seems hard for them to keep the quality in all their cafes. In Barbara, the coffee was just bad - I ordered a medium latte which tasted like water mixed with milk. I haven’t had such a bad coffee for a while, and it’s quite pricey so the disappointment was even bigger. I remember that back in the days, in Okraglak, double espresso for latte was a default - here it seems like you have to pay if you want a stronger coffee? Or maybe the barista was just not skilled enough. Either way, please work on...
