One of the hardest to find but most rewarding venues in the city, this is the home to Gdańsk’s hipster crowd. Found inside the derelict remains of the former Lenin Shipyards, you’ll need to head through Gate #1 of the yard, next to where Lech Wałęsa climbed to speak to the masses gathered at the birth of the Solidarity movement. Head straight down past the red brick buildings on your right and follow the path around to the left where you’ll find Buffet (pronounce “boo-fett” by the locals, not “buff-fay” like the smorgasbord) located in the Wyspa Institute of Art building. Once inside reward yourself with a drink from their bar, where you’ll find English speaking super-friendly staff and a calendar of events featuring a whole host of exhibitions, concerts, workshops and the like. The major pull here though are the truly memorable nights which feature Polish and foreign DJs playing anything from indie to drum n’ bass. Do expect a décor that reflects the post-communist fate of the shipyards and nights that finish in daylight. Do not expect Beyonce or bathrooms with toilet paper.
