There is a tiny, mostly immigrant Muslim community in Krakow. The city lacks a mosque so its Muslims gather for Friday prayer in the building of the Studium Jezyka Polskiego of the Politechnika Krakowska University of Technology, 1 Skarzynskiego street, from noon to 2 p.m. Found this on the web. If you go there, you may well be invited home for a meal. Sounds good to me. Might try it myself.

There might be kebab in Krakow city centre, dozens of them really, but none halal. You ll rather find a pork one than halal...
Some brothers in Krakow get together and order halal meat from other city I don't know details, but if you don't live there and don't know brothers that would be difficult way.
Definitely no halal restaurants, nearest halal shop is in Katowice - 1h drive west from Krakow.

Inshallah it is going to change considering how many Muslims migrated to the city, but for now there are pure vegetarian restaurants. minimum 3 of them in the centre plus number of milky bars, but you have to be specific when you order - no animal fat or gelatine. Polish people do not have much idea what does it mean vegetarian...

Reservoir, you're so funny. I know that Poland is big exporter of halal and kosher meat so it's weird that there are no such restaurants.

A bit far to travel, but there is actually a Halal kebab place in Olsztyn. The owner is Egyptian and has a certificate from the Imam in Warsaw to certify he uses Halal.
