The story
Stara Wędzarnia sits in the quiet village of Kołczewo near Kamień Pomorski, where the menu centers on seafood preparations. The kitchen operates a dedicated smoker to cure cod, pollock, and halibut throughout the week. A Gault&Millau score of eleven reflects how consistently this coastal cuisine handles delicate proteins. Diners also browse the cured meat and artisan cheese selections displayed along the main counter.
Guests often pair those heavy smoked fish plates with Neapolitan-style pies baked directly in the stone oven. The restaurant balances rich maritime flavors with lighter Italian doughs and bright tomato sauces. Visitors frequently recommend arriving early during peak summer months to secure a table. The kitchen observes a brief seasonal pause in early November to restock supplies.
The space functions as both a restaurant and a delicatessen, featuring a large white-painted bar alongside sturdy wooden tables. Warm overhead lighting creates a cozy atmosphere inside the original dark timber cabin. Heavy red doors slide open to reveal a spacious covered terrace overlooking the quiet village streets. The layout encourages casual browsing through preserved goods before settling into a meal.
