About Singer
The undisputed King of Kazimierz until Alchemia came along, Singer hasn't changed a jot in the last 15 years. Whether that makes it timeless (the most commonly parroted opinion) or just plain tired (my own) is a moot point. Dingy, smoky and just downright grubby, Singer did set the standard for bars in this former Jewish quarter - which is that they should be, well, dingy, smoky and grubby. The result is that the whole district has turned into a gitane-smoking pastiche of a bohemian quarter - and Singer must take most of the credit / blame. Still, with its tables made from old Singer sewing machines trestles, it could be a minor mecca for historians of treadle-operated overlockers - and it is certainly heaven if you're into velvet upholstery, low light levels, and passive smoking.
