Forma Płynna Beach Bar, Wybrzeże Wyspiańskiego
Instead of sand, you will find the neat green grass here. Instead of umbrellas and sunshades, you will see crowns of mini-forest trees. Right on the bank of the Oder, a climatic city beach called Forma Płynna [Liquid Form] has been established; it neighbours on the boulevard of the Wroclaw University of Technology through the fence.
The climate of this place is created by trees and by hammocks and deckchairs suspended between them. On hot summer days, it is an optimal place for a lazy afternoon with friends. “Chill, relax, jazz”, we can read in Internet opinions of thrilled visitors of the new Oder beach in the city centre.
On the spot, there is a bar with an excellent menu and even better staff, open-air toys for children, and the programme contains music evenings, concerts and workshops.
Stara Odra, Trzebnickie Bridges
The picturesquely located Stara Odra [Old Oder] Beach Bar had many regular visitors last year. Situated beside Mosty Trzebnickie bridges close to the tram terminus at ul. Zawalna, it attracted local people and visitors from other parts of Wroclaw.

Przestrzeń: park, pizza and chillout, ul. Mickiewicza/Paderewskiego
Away from the Oder, you can also find suitable places to rest during a good weather. “Przestrzeń is an idea to relax away from the tourist pubs, noise and prices of the Wroclaw Market Square,” encourage the hosts of an open-air diner at Sępolno. At the junction of Mickiewicza and Paderewskiego streets, the atmospheric spot has started another summer season.
There were many changes in infrastructure during winter. The large container was designed as a cosy diner that contains not only a bar, but also a kitchen and a pizza oven.
In the shadow of old oaks, guests relax on deckchairs and comfortable garden furniture. Children have a big sandbox and a small playground at their disposal, and adults can taste beer, cider and fine coffee. It is also possible to play chess and badminton or read the current press.
Przestrzeń [Space] attracts a colourful and cheerful company, families with children, and lovers of good music and ambitious cinema. The open-air cinema shows documentaries every Wednesday and world cinema masterpieces every Sunday. On weekends, musicians from Wroclaw and other places play together on the stage of Przestrzeń.
