The World’s 100 Best Cocktail Bars · 2026
The Best Cocktail Bars in Poland
6 of the 100 cocktail bars in The World’s 100 Best Cocktail Bars 2026 are in Poland. The highest placed is The Trust in Kraków, at number 19 in the world. El Koktel in Warsaw (number 31) and TAG in Kraków (number 32) follow.
Kraków cocktail bars
Four cocktail bars in Kraków appear on the list. The Trust names each drink after a song and gives it a story, and its staff, decor and music are also features of the bar. TAG has a hip hop concept, graffiti walls and a vinyl-style menu, and it is reached through a buzzer and stairwell. Rumour, in central Kraków, uses dimmed lighting and smoke, foam and dry-ice effects, while Gin Mill is small, with around nine seats at the counter and a large gin collection.
Warsaw
El Koktel is a small cocktail bar in Warsaw with a seasonal menu of themed, signature drinks, many built on house-distilled spirits. Guests ring a doorbell at the entrance to be let in. The bartenders explain the menu closely.
Gdańsk
Craft Cocktails sits in Gdańsk's Old Town and serves classic and house-made drinks in a retro setting with 1980s and 90s rock. Its recipes are creative, its spirits are infused, and its staff suggest drinks and take off-menu requests.
