Frommer's

"A take-out-only, hole-in-the-wall operation that draws a constant flow of customers looking for the city's best doughnuts (paczki) and pastries at bargain prices."

Michał Korkosz

"Here you go for hot donuts, which always have a taste of dipped sugar."

"Approaching its site, I immediately threw my eyes on a donut sprinkled with almond flakes... Regardless of the filling, in a moment I knew that it would be mine. It was a fairy tale! The dough was chubby and soft, and the flavor was slightly vanilla balanced with sugar. Rose jam was a great complement to the whole, not to mention the abundance of almonds on top. I was so delighted that I forgot to photograph the donut inside - seriously! Pawłowicz, great job!"

Natalia Kmieciak

"For the pączki from the Pawłowicz bakery, a large queue is set up every day. This famous Warsaw chain has been successfully raising the hearts of Poznanians for several years. No wonder, because the donuts are fluffy, magnificent, stuffed to the brim and always warm."

"Best pączki are in the patisserie Pawłowicz on 13 Chmielnej Street."

Andrea Palmas

"Pączki, amazing fresh Polish donuts, especially those with wild rose jam inside and almonds on top. But you can choose from a large variety of fillings (caramel, chocolate, cherry...). You’ll want to eat all of them."

Indie Warsaw

"The ‘classic’ pączki is filled with rose jam and topped with almonds – a delicious bittersweet flavouring that has to be tasted to be believed. Prices are cheap from 3.50 PLN, about one euro, so no need to stop at just one."

Marta Roszewska

"Pawłowicz's pączki are just heavenly! Always fresh, warm and with various fillings - fudge, halva, rose, chocolate. Everyone will find something for himself."

Jessica S.

"On my first visit I got a chocolate and vanilla pączki. Oh man, it was so fresh that it was still warm. Here’s my taste review: the filling – delicious! The dough – delicious! The glaze – delicious! The fried sinfulness – also delicious! I could basically feel my hips getting fatter with every bite, but we’ll just ignore that little detail."

Elizabeth Georgian

"This hole in the wall shop was easily the best pączki of the bunch. There were numerous flavors to choose from and the doughnut was just so fresh, warm, and tasty. If you only have time to taste one pączki, this is your best bet."
