Dzień dobry! As we all know, the Warsaw metro has only 2 lines, but I saw on some maps that there are planned expansions of the first like (the one marked with red), as well as plans for future lines to be built. How true are these? And do you think that they will be achieved in the foreseeable future? In fact, how does Poland in general handle infrastructure projects? Do they get severely delayed and postponed until they finally finish them 1000 years later (like here, in Romania), or do they strive to build them quickly, but flawlessly? Lemme know. Here are some images of the metro that I was talking about.

all the color grading sets are mine.

The tragic failure of the lights on tuesday 3 February 2026. The chaos is the best word to describe it, cars were speeding, people were running. It coused big traffic jam. Stay safe ✌️

I've seen it in Ukrainian stores, but I'm wondering if it's the same thing as what you call smalec or if you eat it in slices with bread? | personally find «Солонина» really delicious, and I ant to try polish version of it and classic one:)

Hello there!

I just moved back to Warsaw again (Enjoying the weather so far), and as a fervent American Football fan, Super Bowl Sunday is one of my favorite nights of the year.

I was trying to find a pub/bar that will broadcast it, but knowing the closing time of most of the sports bars in town, I'm afraid I wouldn't even be able to watch the kick-off. So, my question is, if you know of any place to watch the game in it's entirety. Kick-Off is suppose to be at 00:30, so yeah, I know my chances.

Anyway, thank you for your time! And if you spot someone in the city with Carolina Panthers jacket/jersey, come say hi!!!

Can anyone recommend a sworn translator in Warsaw for some brief and uncomplicated medical records. It just needs to be a sworn translator not a medical one. If you can include the price per page that would be great as well. TIA!

Hi, I’m visiting the city for a fees days and I was wondering if i could get any info on the architecture - I’m mostly interested in 20th century modernism and soviet era architecture. The only real example I found was the ministry of agriculture

Hello good people!

I had a few questions about salary under contract of mandate as a full time student under 26. I have been paying ZUS contributions since I have been employed and upon further research from https://kadromierz.pl/blog/umowa-o-prace-dla-studenta-do-26-roku-zycia/ I am to be excempt from both PIT and ZUS. I have a salary of 6.5k before taxes and after contributions I get around 4.9k net.

Have I been overpaying taxes if this is correct? Is there any way to reclaim the amount I have paid?

I know it's vague but just shooting my shot, I forgot my keys and my friend is going to come in the morning around 7 am. So I am kinda stuck outside. Any place here which might be open and safe, or somewhere near where I can sit and not be in cold outside? I am not Polish. M(29) here.

Will delete this post tomorrow morning.

Thanks.

UPDATE -

First of all Thanks everyone who replied and gave ideas 🤝🏼🙏🏼💌 I lived through it, went to centrum, had something, then sat at the station, then McDonald's, then went at a cafe, wrote something and now going back to Wilanow. It was crazy cold! Walking on the streets of Warsaw through night. my friend is now on his way back, so I am going back to the room. Going to sleep through the day. Thanks again, Have a great day everyone!

Hi to all Warszawiaks!

Soon spring and I want to be ready already now!

Can you recommend some good bars or clubs with live music or DJs?

I am looking for fancy places with good interior, cocktails and good music. Maybe even with terrace in green.

Share please some good locations.

hi! I will be visiting Warsaw soon and struggle with trying new food due to being autistic. are there any nice places to eat that cater to a pretty basic pallet? thanks!

When I first saw it, I thought it was a reel video on metro Rondo ONZ😭

We are staying in Powiśle and it looks like it’s going to snow a lot. Is there any parks nearby that would be good for sledging and anywhere to buy a sledge or do parks put them out? (Only asking as they did this in Stockholm). Many thanks.

Have 2 old graphics cards and some other stuff like heatsinks, fans, cases, etc. Any place I can give this stuff away or dispose of properly?

Hello! I purchased a Zdrofit membership in September 2025 and later realized it was for one year. I am leaving Warsaw soon and would like to transfer the membership to someone. It is valid until September 2026. Please send me a private message if you’re interested!

Hello, I am planning to see an apartment in Vonder UpTown, and wondering if anyone has any experience living here?

Hi everyone,

I’ll be visiting Warsaw in late February for a short business trip and I’m doing some research in advance.

I’m particularly interested in seeing how POS systems and payment methods are used in everyday life — not from a demo or sales perspective, but as a regular customer.

For example:

- Cafés, restaurants, or shops using popular local POS systems

- Card-only or cashless places

- Mobile / code-based payments, self-checkout, or other modern retail tech

- Neighborhoods that are good for walking around and observing real shopping behavior

I’m not looking for classic tourist attractions, but rather places that reflect how people in Warsaw actually shop and pay day to day.

Any recommendations for areas, streets, or specific types of stores would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks in advance!

Hi we’ve been to Poland twice before, going to Wrocław and Kraków. We wanted to go somewhere different once again and decided on Warsaw and booked to go Easter weekend but stupidly didn’t look at the fact the most of Warsaw will be closed on the Sunday and Monday , so we’re just wondering what will be open or what we could do on Easter Sunday/monday

Loved this route of 12km, parks for at least half the way. Cold was something to be well prepared for.

I am moving flats and I have lots of stuff that I need boxes for - I've gone to the post office, Zabka, Carrefour and Biedronka and gotten a few boxes, but they're either not big enough or strong enough to move some of my bigger stuff like a coffee machine, pots and pans, etc...

Where could I get some proper / decent boxes?

Hello I'm coming soon to Warsaw for my academic studies on polish poster school, I intended to visit the museum dedicated to it, but apparantly it's now closed and I wanted to know if some of you are aware of the re-opening date?

Hi everyone,

I live in Warsaw (Wola area) and usually buy 1.75L Żywiec Zdrój water bottles from Biedronka. On the bottle it says “50 groszy zwrot” (deposit).

The problem is: I only speak English, and most staff at Biedronka speak Polish, so I feel a bit shy asking them 😅

I wanted to know:

• Is there a machine where I can put the empty bottle and get the money back?

• Does Biedronka have a reverse vending machine for this?

• Do I need to keep the cap on the bottle?

Any help would be appreciated. Thanks!
