Gdynia was originally a small fishing village first established in 1253, so the city has had literally hundreds of years to cultivate and refine it's own unique culinary heritage. In the last ten years however, Gdynia's restaurant and dining scene has rapidly grown into a vibrant and highly modern industry within the city. It's close proximity to the Baltic Sea makes it's fresh seafood cuisine culturally unique when compared to other regions within Poland. Delicious local speciality recipes within the city include salmon in herb sauce, grilled sea trout, lemon and beer battered cod, or pickled herring. World renown Polish brewed domestic beers make washing down a warm basket of locally prepared fish and chips a particularly delightful experience. Fresh herbs and wild game plucked from the region are also readily available in most of the finer dining establishments.

Outside of traditional Polish and local cuisine, Gdynia is also home to an ever growing and diverse variety of international and ethnic eateries. Within the city you can find excellent Chinese and Thai restaurants, French restaurants, Greek restaurants, Ukrainian restaurants, Italian restaurants, pizzerias, salad bars, sushi bars, American style steak

houses, fast food joints, and much more. If you feel like ordering in, there are a variety of delivery options available, from tasty pizzas to Polish cuisine. For those of you eating on the go, there are also many safe food carts and street vendors scattered throughout the city, all offering quick affordable food. This is a great way to pick up a grilled Polish sausage, hot kebab, french fries, a fresh baked bread roll, ice cream, or an ice cold beverage.
