In terms of shopping, Warsaw has it all—from big, sparkling shopping malls to tiny boutiques and specialty stores, as well as some decent street markets. Increasingly, international chains—such as Marks & Spencer—are appearing, which has meant that locally produced products are sometimes harder to find than expensive imported alternatives. Shopping hours are usually from 11 am to 7 pm on weekdays and from 10 am to 1 pm on Saturday, but shopping malls are open until 8 or even 10 pm. RUCH kiosks, which sell bus and train tickets, newspapers, and cosmetics, are usually open from 7 am to 7 pm.
Warsaw has four main shopping streets, all in ?ródmie?cie. The larger stores lie on ulica Marsza?kowska (from ulica Królewska to plac Zbawiciela) and aleje Jerozolimskie (from Central Station to plac Genera?a de Gaullea, in ?ródmie?cie). Smaller stores and more specialized boutiques can be found on ulica Nowy ?wiat and ulica Chmielna. Another fashionable shopping street just a bit farther off is ulica Burakowska, while some smaller designer shops and ateliers are scattered around town.
If you are looking for more than just the sweets, Blikle Delikatesy sells traditional Polish products (such as natural honey or smoked meats) as well as delicious imports (olive oil, cheeses, and much more). Of course, if you are looking for sweets, then there is always something for your sweet tooth. After all, Blikle is best known in Poland as the maker of prize-winning pączki doughnuts.
For fine antique furniture, art, and china try Desa Unicum, an auction house and gallery, one of the oldest in the country. Remember, however, that most antiques cannot be exported. You will also sometimes find antiques at the Olimpia and Koło flea markets.
The most talked-about art gallery in town started as a showcase for independent art in a private flat of an old tenement house. Although it moved to a new location, it did not lose its unique character. It sometimes also has film screenings and live concerts. The gallery is closed on Sunday and Monday.
To satisfy your chocolate craving, direct your steps toward Wedel. When Wedel first opened in 1851, it was a family-owned company; now it's part of the Cadbury candy conglomerate. But the charming old-fashioned shop, where the selection of sweets is impressive, is just as homey as it was when the company was just a local company. In the cafeteria you'll find the best cup of hot chocolate in town.
You cannot beat the location of this shopping mall in the very center, right next to main railway station (Dworzec Centralny). In fact, it has a direct connection to the station, so while you wait for your train, you can pick up souvenirs, have a cup of coffee, eat dinner, or even see a movie.
