We were closed by the government a fortnight ago but sadly I have to announce that the restaurant will remain closed until such time that tourism begins to be normal in Krakow again. Quite simply it is a cash flow problem and it affects the restaurant more than the apartments because the expenses and wages are so constant and large and despite the small help indicated by the government so far.
It is very sad for everybody, particularly since, after nearly 2 years in operation, Paul's Place was really beginning to thrive. I am devastated that I have to lay off all my fantastic staff, who had become an extended Polish family. I really mean that and the business would never have got as far as it did without them as evidenced by the many nice comments on Trip Advisor, Google, etc. I will miss you all a great deal on a personal level and I cannot thank you all enough.
Let us hope that this horror abates and that it will be possible to reopen sooner rather than later. Good luck to everyone and I will always be available for help or advice in the future.
Best wishes from Paul.
