Hałas Warsaw

Vinyl + coffee

Magda from Warsaw

About me I graduated from the University of Warsaw with a degree in Applied Linguistics (MA) and Text Edition (post-diploma) as well as Cultural Diplomacy (post-diploma). Currently I work for the Foundation for Polish-German Cooperation on various projects strengthening Polish-German cooperation. I also do translate and edit texts, mostly from German into Polish. I used to...
""Hałas" in Warsaw is one of the cosiest specialty cafes in town with one of the best selections of brand new vinyl records - it will steal your heart!"

Located in a beautiful small and quiet street in Saska Kępa district at the right-hand side of the Vistula river, Hałas (Polish for 'noise') Vinyl + Coffee is well hidden, yet directly in the city centre. You may start a day in Vinyl before heading to visit the city. It's also a great stop in Saska Kępa if you're looking for a niche café, not a popular or American one. Here, you truly are a local.

Hałas about themselves: "We offer a carefully curated selection of new vinyl records. You will find current releases as well as many cult classics." As you can see, Hałas comes in handy as a gift for a friend (or yourself) and some gossip in Warsaw.

It's one of the cosiest speciality cafés in town, with a neat gardenette and the possibility to park a bike easily; surrounded by green, it will steal your heart and music taste forever.
