The New Nastawnia Restaurant is a hidden gem nestled within Henryk Wieniawski Park, conveniently located near the Theater Bridge at 12 Noskowskiego Street. This charming dining establishment offers two inviting guest rooms, and during the summer months, it extends its hospitality to include a spacious covered terrace and a garden that lies in close proximity to the adjacent railway tracks. Notably, the restaurant finds its abode within a historic edifice, which celebrates its 110th anniversary this year. It once served as Poznań’s inaugural signal box, known as “Poznań Centrum.” After a temporary closure due to the pandemic, the building was rejuvenated as the New Railway Switchyard in January this year under its new proprietor, Anna Kotus, who also owns the catering and event company Wytwórnia Smaq.
Even the notorious Kawu‘s artwork has appeared in early November 2023 on the side of the restaurant drawing people to the area and restaurant. First emerging on Poznań’s street art circuit a few years ago, Kawu’s output has rapidly won him an army of followers. Now boasting over 60,000 fans on Instagram alone, his portfolio has been applauded for both its humor and intelligence. We recommend you go and visit his latest work!
