WIN, a Warsaw wine bar-shop opened by the team behind wine importer Enoterra, has been included in the Michelin Bib Gourmand 2026 selection. The distinction is awarded to restaurants offering high-quality cuisine at affordable prices.

The news was shared on Instagram by Enoterra and WIN co-founder Alexander Mozoliako.

“A stretch of the journey full of the most difficult and unexpected challenges and experiences. To be continued,” he wrote.

WIN is located in Warsaw’s Wola district. The kitchen is led by chef Mateusz Karkoszka and sous-chef Adam Kubisz. The Enoterra team imports and distributes wines from small family-owned wineries.

“The brainchild of a wine importer, it’s no surprise that WIN is a must-visit for oenophiles. On the ground floor is the bar, lounge, deli and shop, where you can browse over 300 wines including a great Central and Eastern European selection. Upstairs, the intimate bistro is decked out in minimalist chic and serves well-priced and skilfully composed dishes where finely balanced flavours work together in total harmony. Everyone on the enthusiastic team is knowledgeable about wine and will guide your choice if you wish,” the establishment is described on the Michelin Guide website.

The awards ceremony took place in Kraków on May 27. This year, the Michelin Guide covered all of Poland for the first time, rather than selected cities and regions. Warsaw was included with 38 restaurants, including four Michelin-starred establishments. Poland now has a total of 11 Michelin-starred restaurants. Ten Warsaw venues were included in the Bib Gourmand category this year, four of them receiving the distinction for the first time.

Bib Gourmand is a separate Michelin distinction for establishments offering good food at reasonable prices. Inspectors assess the quality of ingredients, cooking techniques and flavours, consistency, culinary concept, and value for money. The symbol of the award is the smiling Bibendum (“Bib”), Michelin’s mascot.

The Michelin Guide has been published since 1900. Its inspectors visit restaurants anonymously and assess the quality of the cuisine, service and value for money.
