Currently there are already sixteen cafes in the entire country under the name "Pijalnie Czekolady E. Wedel" The tradition goes back to 160 years ago when Karol Wedel started manufacturing best chocolate ever.
The first chocolate cafe Pijalnia Czekolady E.Wedel was opened in 1851 on Szpitalna street in Warsaw and it is open until today.
E. Wedel chocolate cafes are famous for their excellent hot beverages and handmade chocolate pralines. It is because of this that these cafes are often considered as a romantic anniversary gift idea for her and him. They offer dozens of flavors of drinking chocolate, served in many different ways: hot, cold and in the form of delicious desserts. It is bitter, milk and white chocolate. Although wide range of products is there, new ones are continuously introduced to meet the tastes of the most demanding customers.
Handmade chocolate pralines are full of flavors and sensations and also a great idea for an extraordinary gift.
Chocolate connoisseurs will not only find unique and magical atmosphere in E.Wedel chocolate cafes but also a wide range of portfolio brands, among which there is a gift offer - hand decorated cake with dedication according to customers' wish.

So we are sitting in the E. Wedel in Krakow enjoying there wonderful double milk chocolate drink. Here is what occurs to me. On the back of the chairs is this guy riding a zebra holding what appears to be two solar panels (later I found out they were chocolate bars). My question is a Zebra? I don't get a Zebra. What is the significance, chocolate came from the Yucatan, not Africa?
Hi - went recently to manufaktura in Lodz with polish friend and really enjoyed to have a drink and some pastries at local Wedel café ! amazing and was offered some truffles boxes to take home - i just swallowed the last two ones this morning - as a belgian chocolates fan ( you know how good they are here ! ) i was really surprised of truffles so many tastes - for sure i need to be back in poalnd to buy some !
thank you Wedel for a superb chocolate and chocolate-lovers experience. i had the best hot chocolate ever - thick creamy cocoa burst to the max. our party of chocolate lovers from all over the world were most impressed - taste, flavour, service, hospitality which is a credit to you. thank you again. worth visiting warsaw again just for the chocolate drink.
Many years ago Wedel had very good products. Now they are terrible, no good taste and to sweet.
Very good and delicious chocolate. It is a very light chocolate, so you would never feel full of having that.
You must joke! Expensive? This is a best chocolate ever
We visited the location in Krakow June 2011. The best chocolates ever. Brought several home, but wished we bought more. Where can I place an order.
I went to the Wedels's over Praga way the other week and that was great too. Not cheap, but then again the chocolate drinks and chocolates are amazing.
Love their chocolates. My hotel was just a block away from the factory but alas, I did not have time to go there... next time
I visited this place in the summer and they do great light lunches too, as well as offering all the great chocolates and drinks.
Best chocolates ever!!! Especially the lavender ones. Or the balls with raspberry taste.. or actually just all of them. Just LOVE them
yes i have to agree there is a bit too much overly-sweet chocolate treats - ask for some bitter, dark chocolate. the hot chocolate is indeed delicious :)
Ptasie Mleczko is horrible! It's just crappy milk chocolate covering a marshmallow. I have no idea how it became so popular in Poland. Anyway Wedel has some really top notch chocolate... try the chocolate drink! Yum!
Great for the weather this time of year. My favorite is the hot chocolate with rose petals - I had never tried anything like that before!
A must if you go to warsaw!
Chocolate heaven. the cherry hot chocolate is a delight!!

I agree with Brenda - saw the cnn spot and the picture here doesn't do the place justice. i also can't wait to see it in person.
I saw this in CNN - the interior looks amazing! We can't wait to stop in when in town over Christmas Holiday. It's our first time to Poland.
nikt sie nie oprze Torcikowi Pana Wedla no i oczywiscie gor¹cej czekoladzie!!!uuwielbiam zarówno w Warszawie jak i na krakowskim Rynku!!!ciao
I like to think that Wedel gives a little insight into the gracious world of prewar Warsaw. Very very classy and great chocolate to boot!
What a GREAT chocolate place!!! Excellent chocolate, very good service, pleasant atmosphere!!!
Chocolate Paradise that makes Ghiradelli back in the States look like Ringling Bros. Ever since my Grandmother on my mother's side of the family brought some of their cakes from New York's Eastern European shops on her visit to California when my sister and I were very young, I was always looking forward to visiting a place in Poland that specialized in the E. Wedel classics. This is the best way of sampling the E. Wedel Chocolate tradition without actually going to the factory. On my first ever visit to Poland and the store a few weeks ago I enjoyed my glass of Mint Hot Chocolate and Chocolate Mousse. To top it off, I brought and sent home several wafer packages. If only grandmother and grandfather could see me now......Dziekuje bardzo.....
Superbe endroit, le meilleur chocolat chaut que j'ai bu de ma vie. Un souvenir innoubliable. Je m'arrète au Wedel chaque fois que je vais à Varsovie. Merci
I took some American college students to this place....it was excellent...made our trip to Warsaw. A wonderful selection of desserts in the Salon. Highly recommended. We took home a wondeful box of truffles, too. Beats anything in the US.
