At Talerzyki, patrons can indulge in freshly made falafel crafted on the spot, adhering to Palestinian recipes. This iconic dish, with its crisp exterior and flavorful interior, showcases the culinary finesse that has made falafel a beloved treat worldwide.
As winter blankets Palestine, Sahlab emerges as a comforting winter drink. Tracing its roots back to the Ottoman Empire, Sahlab, or Saleb, has stood the test of time.

Embrace the heartwarming tradition and savor the unique Palestinian touch in every sip. Alternatively, every Wednesday and Thursday, when you buy a set of 3, 5, 7 or 10 plates, you will have the opportunity to buy a pot of tea for PLN 4!
Another great option is their Yerba. Of course, it has its origin in South America, but as a result of migration, it reached Arab countries centuries ago. It is especially appreciated in Lebanon and Syria, and from there it spread to neighboring countries. Their Yerba comes from there so don’t miss out!
