Curved benches and softly rounded mirrors evoke the forgiving nature of beach-break waves; wall shelves march in steady rhythm like the ordered swell of a point-break; and the counter, a dramatic undulating form, channels the bold energy of reef-break surf.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>Warm oak plywood hints at sun-baked sand, while metallic finishes shimmer like wet rocks and rolling water. The ceiling \u2014 coated entirely in yellow spray foam \u2014 steals the show, its tactile irregularity and golden hue suggesting seafoam and morning sun. Branded in deep marine blue, the space ripples with contrast, echoing the freshness of the pastries themselves, which gleam behind the tunnel-like counter. While compact in area, Pastelowe stretches its atmosphere far beyond the walls \u2014 giving Warsaw locals a slice of Portuguese surf culture, no wetsuit required.<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"wp-image-1137693 size-full lazyload\" bad-src=\"data:image\/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAIAAAAAAAP\/\/\/yH5BAEAAAAALAAAAAABAAEAAAIBRAA7\" alt=\"golden ceiling foams above reef-shaped counter in warsaw bakery by znamy si\u0119\" width=\"818\" height=\"1226\" src=\"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/06\/golden-ceiling-reef-shaped-counter-warsaw-bakery-znamy-sie-pastelowe-designboom-01.jpg\"  data- loading=\"lazy\"\/><br \/>Pastelowe is a petite p\u00e2tisserie that channels the surfy spirit of the Portuguese coast<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"wp-image-1137699 size-full lazyload\" bad-src=\"data:image\/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAIAAAAAAAP\/\/\/yH5BAEAAAAALAAAAAABAAEAAAIBRAA7\" alt=\"golden ceiling foams above reef-shaped counter in warsaw bakery by znamy si\u0119\" width=\"818\" height=\"1226\" src=\"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/06\/golden-ceiling-reef-shaped-counter-warsaw-bakery-znamy-sie-pastelowe-designboom-07.jpg\"  data- loading=\"lazy\"\/><br \/>]63 square meters of vibrant interior designed by architecture studio Znamy si\u0119<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"wp-image-1137696 size-full lazyload\" bad-src=\"data:image\/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAIAAAAAAAP\/\/\/yH5BAEAAAAALAAAAAABAAEAAAIBRAA7\" alt=\"golden ceiling foams above reef-shaped counter in warsaw bakery by znamy si\u0119\" width=\"818\" height=\"1226\" src=\"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/06\/golden-ceiling-reef-shaped-counter-warsaw-bakery-znamy-sie-pastelowe-designboom-04.jpg\"  data- loading=\"lazy\"\/><br \/>the bakery is dedicated to the famed past\u00e9is de nata<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"wp-image-1137698 size-full lazyload\" bad-src=\"data:image\/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAIAAAAAAAP\/\/\/yH5BAEAAAAALAAAAAABAAEAAAIBRAA7\" alt=\"golden ceiling foams above reef-shaped counter in warsaw bakery by znamy si\u0119\" width=\"818\" height=\"1226\" src=\"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/06\/golden-ceiling-reef-shaped-counter-warsaw-bakery-znamy-sie-pastelowe-designboom-06.jpg\"  data- loading=\"lazy\"\/><br \/>captures the sunny origins of the portuguese delicacy through form, texture, and hue<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"wp-image-1137695 size-full lazyload\" bad-src=\"data:image\/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAIAAAAAAAP\/\/\/yH5BAEAAAAALAAAAAABAAEAAAIBRAA7\" alt=\"golden ceiling foams above reef-shaped counter in warsaw bakery by znamy si\u0119\" width=\"818\" height=\"1226\" src=\"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/06\/golden-ceiling-reef-shaped-counter-warsaw-bakery-znamy-sie-pastelowe-designboom-03.jpg\"  data- loading=\"lazy\"\/><br \/>yellow foam ceiling, sculptural counters, and marine-toned accents shape Pastelowe<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"znamy si\u0119 brings the surf and sweetness of portugal to warsaw \u00a0 Nestled in Warsaw\u2019s Solec neighborhood, Pastelowe&hellip;\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":165364,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[3939],"tags":[55461,4021,4020,4022,77,12858,16,15],"class_list":{"0":"post-165363","1":"post","2":"type-post","3":"status-publish","4":"format-standard","5":"has-post-thumbnail","7":"category-arts-and-design","8":"tag-architecture-in-poland","9":"tag-arts","10":"tag-arts-and-design","11":"tag-design","12":"tag-entertainment","13":"tag-restaurant-and-cafe-design","14":"tag-uk","15":"tag-united-kingdom"},"share_on_mastodon":{"url":"","error":""},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/165363","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=165363"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/165363\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/165364"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=165363"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=165363"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=165363"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
