About us

Stara Osada

The restaurant opened in December 2021 in Wiórek, a few kilometres past Poznań’s Starołęka, where the city ends and the forest and the Warta river begin.

The interior recalls old Wiórek. Old photographs of the village and its people hang on the walls, there are candles and fresh flowers on the tables, and a wooden cart full of flowers stands by the entrance. In summer, join us in the garden with its covered pavilion, deckchairs and white benches.

The kitchen is run by Bartek Muzalewski, a meat specialist and an award-winning cooking competition contestant, while the cakes are made by Patrycja Nowaczyk, known locally for years for her home baking. The menu is short and Polish: Wielkopolska beef, homemade broth with our own noodles, duck, pierogi, a traditional breaded pork chop, and homemade bakes and cakes. Plus our beer brewed for the Stara Osada label, Złoty Wiór, and the alcohol-free Malina z Miętą (raspberry & mint).

Bartosz Muzalewski, head chef at Stara Osada

Our chef

Bartosz Muzalewski

Passion, experience and respect for the produce.

For Bartosz Muzalewski, cooking is more than making dishes. It is the art of drawing out flavour, respect for the produce and a constant search for culinary excellence. He has more than 15 years of experience in the meat industry, including work with the largest companies in the sector in Poland. He specialises in selecting, butchering, processing and cooking meat, and beef holds a special place in his culinary world. He knows exactly how the quality of the raw product, proper ageing and technique shape the final taste of a dish.

In his work he combines classic Polish cooking and regional inspiration with modern culinary techniques. He values craft, precision and creativity, and believes that the best cooking starts with good produce. He is also passionate about culinary education: he runs workshops, shares his knowledge and inspires others to discover what is possible in the kitchen.

His philosophy? Quality of produce first, then technique, and finally a taste that stays in your memory. At Stara Osada he creates cooking rooted in Polish tradition, local inspiration and a modern approach to gastronomy.
