1) Service/Atmosphere: The lineup was out the door when multiple tables were left uncleaned and waiting for non reservation guests to be seated. The hostess walked around with her chin up and totally arrogant when you tried to get her attention politely. There was no process to take names down to ensure that people weren’t being skipped or waiting for nothing. It was a free for all with people jumping ahead of the line because the manager didn’t care enough to keep track. Brutal. 2) Food: Please have a look at the attached picture and tell me what the difference is. The batch on the top of the image is supposed to be “French fries” as a side dish and the batch on the right is their “baked potato” side dish, which is essentially undercooked French fries. Wrong by definition, maybe not. Misleading? I would certainly say so. Our waitress, Paulina, was nothing but sarcastic as she tried to explain the difference. 3) Price: Then, the bill came. There was a lack of clarity when the two options to convert the currency and not to convert were given. When the wrong option was selected, she said “oh well, too bad, it’s too late”. When I researched the process, I found out the transaction could have been corrected with a simple refund and then re-process the transaction. All in all, a very disappointing experience. If you value your time and money on a nice night out, I would go elsewhere or be very specific about questions you have regarding the menu or else you’ll likely fall into an unpleasant trap.

Absolutely jumping on a Friday night. Wait for a seat outside or sit inside. Opted for upstairs inside, big mistake when it's 25 degrees outside! Roasting hot before the food even arrived, asked for a change of table to be told 'oh yes this is the hottest part of the restaurant'! This info would have been appreciated before we sat down! There were no other tables available anywhere and the food then arrived. Couldn't enjoy it as was uncomfortably hot. I had the King and hub had the Viking (both sirloin). They were over seasoned by a mile, far too much black pepper on mine which caught in my throat. Chips were seasoned too, far too much. Grilled veg was 2 bits of corn, a bit of courgette and a tiny bit of pepper. Poor. Drinks were good, jars are all Jack Daniels based and we are big fans. Overall this place coukd be amazing but it just isn't. The decor is totally random as well, think they are trying to go for the rock look but misses the mark. Lesson learned... If it looks like a tourist trap.... Would def go back for a drink but not food.

🍴 Whiskey in the Jar is a must-visit restaurant for meat lovers and cocktail enthusiasts. The food is always exceptional, and the cocktails are deliciously crafted. The service is professional, which makes the dining experience even more enjoyable. However, there are a few drawbacks to this popular eatery. 👍 Pros: 🍹 The cocktails are amazing and have a great selection. 🥩 The meat dishes, especially the steaks, are nicely cooked. 💀 The serving show with the skull is well done and adds a fun touch to the dining experience. 👎 Cons: 🚗 There is no parking available, and the restaurant is located in a busy city center area. 🙅♀️ There is often a queue to get a table, so be prepared to wait. 🍽️ Overall, Whiskey in the Jar is a fantastic restaurant that offers great food, cocktails, and service. It's not surprising that there's a queue to get a table as it's well worth the wait. However, the lack of parking may put some diners off. Despite these drawbacks, Whiskey in the Jar is still a must-visit for meat and cocktail lovers alike.

Food, prices, value and service from my individual server excellent. Beautiful Tempura Prawns, the Rib Eye melted away, say no more the whiskey was Irish. Overall had a enjoyable experience. Just a note to the manager's. I was a solo diner and wondered sid this effect my experience. 1. Host was not at door had to wait while 4 staff look out from behind the bar. 2. Shock reaction from staff, 'you dont have a reservation'. Felt like I was foolish. Offered pod table near bar. 3. Manager/Host took up duties at door. Next 7 walk ins no reservations, no problem seated at tables. 4. Floor team had a little pep talk before service, big enthusiastic cheer and off out to work. Pity the same enthusiasm to each other wasnt shared to the customer. All in all cant fault your business, the young lady who served me even went out of the way to learn Slainte the Irish drinking toast she is a serious asset to your team. Just be aware of the solo tourist, they like to spend they like to travel, but can they be demanding 😂

Great food. Great drinks. Great atmosphere. Our server, Ewa, was attentive enough to make sure we are not lacking anything, but not so much for it to be annoying. We were told the wait for food would be about an hour when we were seated, but it feels like it arrived much quicker, although we did not look at the time. I had the Jim burger - the magnificence of which is not described accurately on the menu. My partner had a steak on a rock, which he said was perfection. The chips are also worth mentioning on their own - one of the best I ever had. Crunchy on the outside and soft an fluffy inside with tasty seasoning. Those were probably the most expensive dishes on the menu at 69 PLN and 119 PLN respectively. They also have a huge cocktail selection, mostly whiskey based, but a few with other spirits/lager. Overall it was a great date and we are more than likely to go back next time we are in Wroclaw.

Our favourite restaurant chain in Poland by far. We've visited the sister restaurant in Poznan before, and wanted to try out the one in Wroclaw as well, since we loved that one so much. We were not disappointed! The service is very friendly and attentive. And the place is always packed and buzzing. As soon as we set down, our lovely waiter Kasia, gave our kids balloons, which made them immediately happy. I took the ribs (I've been dreaming about them since our visit in Poznan), and my wife took the shrimp dish. We were both extremely happy with our choices, and everything tasted amazing. Even our kids, the perpetual chicken nuggets eaters, specifically the older one that has something bad to say about any food she tastes, commented that the nuggets are the best she's had. Ever. Wish they'd open a restaurant in Berlin!
