The story

Fromażeria: Poznań’s Cheese Bar Restaurant, Bib Gourmand 2026

A First in Poland

Fromażeria, in central Poznań, is Poland’s first restaurant with a cheese bar. Born from a love of cheese, wine, and life itself, the space is divided into an elegant, lively bistro and a bar stocked with a remarkable selection of cheeses from across Europe and beyond. The team is made up of specialists and enthusiasts of unique flavours, creating an atmosphere where every guest feels at ease. The Michelin Guide calls it a place where cheese lovers will be in seventh heaven, whether for a full meal or a quick seasonal cheese board with matched drinks. The kitchen focuses on European cuisine, drawing on Polish and modern Mediterranean traditions.

The Bib Gourmand Menu

In 2026 Fromażeria earned a Michelin Bib Gourmand for good quality, good value cooking. The kitchen, led by chef Dawid Ankowski, offers a dedicated three-course Bib Gourmand menu that changes with the seasons. It is a showcase of European cuisine, blending French and Polish traditions while using local products and artisan cheeses. Starters might include Pyra z Gzikiem (potato with local cheese and vegetables), baked oysters with Roquefort, or duck liver pâté with cherries and beets. Mains range from homemade cacio e pepe with black truffle to skrei cod with lentils, or lamb leg with Stare Złoto cheese. Desserts such as brioche with Brillat-Savarin cheese ice cream or lazy dumplings with Bleu d’Auvergne keep the focus on cheese. A pre-theatre version of the menu is available on weekdays, a gesture toward Poznań’s cultural life.

The Cheese Bar and À La Carte

Beyond the set menu, the cheese bar offers seasonal tastings: a summer lot with fresh, fruity wines and cheeses, a winter lot with deeper flavours, and a premium “Champions” lot with rare aged cheeses and top wines. For a more immersive experience, the Degustacja and Dekadencja tasting menus present multiple courses that highlight the kitchen’s range, with the latter including Polish caviar and black truffle. The à la carte menu lets diners choose from starters, mains, and desserts that all celebrate European cuisine and the craft of cheese making. Every dish reflects the kitchen’s commitment to seasonal, local ingredients and the art of cheese.
