You probably know that feeling
All week you’ve been trying to eat better. Maybe less meat, more veggies, fewer processed foods. But then Saturday comes — a get-together with friends, a date, a quick lunch in town — and that little thought pops up:
"I’m not ordering a salad now. This is supposed to be a pleasure, not a punishment."
So you go for the classics: a meaty burger, a pizza loaded with extra cheese, something really hearty. Tasty, sure. But right after comes the heaviness, the sluggishness, and the guilt.
For most people plant based cooking is just:
Soy burgers that taste like cardboard
Bland salads you eat for health, not for pleasure.
Boring veggies served as a sidekick to the ‘real food.’
Here, you belong.
When we opened Pestka, we had one goal: to make it so delicious you’d forget it’s plant-based.
For over a decade, we’ve been crafting our very own 100% plant-based dishes.
Made from scratch, with no pre-made products.
Using seasonal vegetables and fruits.
With fresh spices and local ingredients.
Each dish brings the taste, fullness, and intensity you crave when dining out — minus the heaviness, minus the guilt.
That’s why our guests love coming back. Not because they want to ‘be vegan,’ but because here they don’t have to choose between delicious and healthy.
Let's meet at Pestka
Four promises — that’s Pestka.
Food so delicious, you’ll forget about meat
Forget boring salads and so-called ‘health food mush.’ At Pestka you’ll find true comfort dishes — crunchy panko oyster mushroom burgers, hot bao buns, filling ravioli. Cooked and seasoned to delight, never to feel like a trade-off.
Hearty, plant-based dishes that fuel you with energy
No meat, no processed shortcuts, no dairy. At Pestka, everything is built on natural, and nourishing ingredients — giving your body what it needs without the food coma or energy crash.
It’s about taste and quality — never the trendy label ‘vegan'
Pestka isn’t about hype. It’s about local flavors, fresh ingredients, and true passion for cooking. Here, you pay for real food on your plate — not for trends, labels, or clever logos.
Service so friendly, you’ll feel right at home.
At Pestka, you’re not a ‘customer’ — you’re a Guest. Our team takes personal care of everyone who walks in, and with passion helps you choose the right dishes, even if you’ve never tried plant-based food before. That way, you’ll quickly feel like you’re among good friends.
And those with a sweet tooth…
We invite to visit our sister cafe, Szypułka, located in the same space as Pestka. There you’ll find cakes, tortes, and other sweet treats — all deliciously plant-based.
What our guests say...
A wonderfully cozy, atmospheric place
"Whenever I visit Częstochowa, I try to stop by for coffee and cake. The food is delicious — from creative, unique cake flavors to full lunch dishes. It’s a place where you can truly unwind and relax. Huge bonus: a little corner just for kids"

Amazing
"I’m not vegan, but for me it’s no problem to try a different kind of cuisine. The oyster mushroom burger in breadcrumbs was absolutely delicious. I also had the cheesecake — if I hadn’t been told, I’d never have guessed it was dairy-free 😂 It was so tasty and the atmosphere was wonderful. I recommend it to everyone, even non-vegans 😉 …"

The perfect spot for coffee or lunch
"The menu is 100% vegan, but the choice is so big that everyone will be happy. I especially recommend the soups and desserts. Beautiful atmosphere, comfy chairs, and lots of plants :-)"
