Wonderful restaurants on Novy Swiat! And much less expensive than anything *in* Old Town. We walked along it every day since our short-term-rental apartment was so close to Old Town.

La Cantina is an Italian restaurant where it is nice to site and observe the people passing by... of course with a Polish beer :). The street takes you to the Old Town.

We walked down Nowy Swiat looking for a place for dinner, and found many nice restaurants. It was very pleasant walking around there and eating outdoors on a nice evening. The atmosphere is very upbeat; a nice place for a stroll in the afternoon/evening.

were looking forward to great shopping....not soo much. Nice to walk around but overrated. Better off checking out the local malls for great buys.

When you think that all this was reconstructed after WWII because the entire area (and overall 85% of the city was reduced to rubble) was flattened, It is a testiment to the Polish nation and people that this area exists. The best place for an evening stroll after meetings for sure!

Super street to stroll along admiring the marvellously reconstructed architecture, with upmarket shops and many pavement cafes and restaurants.

This is an area with upscale shops, including both chains and individual stores. There are nice cafes as well. Touristy, but not outrageously so.

We walked from Old Town through Nowy Swiat. It's a street filled with coffee shops (including a Starbucks) on one side and swanky boutiques on the other. Seemed like the coffee shops were mostly filled with college students.
