Spit-roast chicken on ul. Konstytucji 3 Maja

A spit-roast chicken stand in the centre, trading since 1991. A piece of local history: according to local media, the town's first street food stall.

  • Takeaway
  • In the centre
  • Since 1991

The spit-roast chicken stand on ul. Konstytucji 3 Maja is one of those places the locals have known for years. According to the local portal swinoujskie.info it has been trading since 1991 and was the first street food stall in Świnoujście, long before the chains arrived.

The offer is simple: chicken from an electric rotisserie, to take away. In a 2016 article the owners stressed that they roast large chickens weighing at least one and a half kilos.

When it is worth it

  • For a quick lunch while sightseeing, for example after the Museum of Sea Fishing or on the Świna quay.
  • For a meal in your apartment when you do not feel like sitting in a restaurant.

It is a small street stand: selling hours are sometimes shorter than in restaurants. Menus, prices and opening hours change with the season, so we do not list them. Check them on site or in the maps before you go.
