The FORUM Shopping Centre in Gliwice continues to evolve, expanding its range of offerings with fresh and diverse dining options. As part of this ongoing development, two well-known restaurant brands have recently joined the centre’s gastronomic lineup. In February and March, visitors gained access to new culinary experiences with the arrival of Makarun Pinsa & Pizza, which opened on February 27, and Pasibus, which welcomed customers on March 7.
Both establishments mark their first locations in Gliwice, bringing unique flavors and dining experiences to the city. Their introduction not only diversifies the food options available at FORUM but also coincides with the unveiling of a newly designed dining area above Pasibus. This new food court provides seating for 50 guests and offers a panoramic view of the shopping gallery, creating a comfortable and inviting atmosphere for visitors looking to relax and enjoy their meals.
Makarun Pinsa & Pizza introduces a modern take on Italian cuisine. As a well-established Polish restaurant chain specializing in pasta, Makarun has built a reputation for offering both traditional Italian recipes and innovative flavor combinations. Customers can create their own meals by selecting from a variety of pasta types, fresh ingredients, and aromatic sauces, ensuring a personalized dining experience. With a growing presence across Poland, Makarun has become the country’s largest spaghetteria chain. The new restaurant at FORUM, however, offers more than just pasta. Under its expanded name, Makarun Pinsa & Pizza, the menu now includes freshly baked pinsa and crispy pizza, bringing additional variety to Italian cuisine enthusiasts. Guests can also opt for fresh and colorful salads as a lighter alternative. Located on level +1 next to McDonald’s, the restaurant combines a modern interior with a welcoming ambiance, making it a great spot for both quick meals and leisurely dining.
Pasibus, another highly anticipated addition, has built a strong reputation in Poland’s fast-casual dining scene, particularly for its signature burgers. Known for using high-quality ingredients and bold flavor combinations, the brand has redefined the burger experience by continually introducing new and seasonal menu items. While best known for its burgers, Pasibus also offers an extended selection that includes lunch specials, wraps, and chicken sandwiches, catering to a broader range of tastes. The brand’s roots trace back to its beginnings as a food truck in Wrocław in 2013, where it quickly gained popularity and a loyal following. Since then, it has grown into a national chain with locations in major Polish cities, maintaining its original street food character while providing professional service and high-standard dining spaces. With the opening of its Gliwice branch on March 7, Pasibus has now made its mark in yet another key urban centre.
To accommodate the increasing number of dining visitors, FORUM Shopping Centre has expanded its food court with a new seating area on level +2. Positioned above Pasibus, this newly designed space provides seating for 50 guests and offers a scenic overlook of the shopping centre. The addition of this seating area enhances the overall experience, giving visitors a comfortable and aesthetically pleasing environment to enjoy their meals.
According to Patrycja Duczmal, Director of the FORUM Shopping Centre, these changes reflect a broader strategy to enhance both the shopping and dining experience at the centre. She emphasizes that the goal is not only to provide a diverse selection of retail stores but also to create a vibrant space where visitors can enjoy high-quality cuisine and a welcoming atmosphere. She highlights that the recent openings, along with the newly added seating area, are part of a deliberate effort to elevate the overall experience for customers.
With these latest developments, the FORUM Shopping Centre continues to reinforce its status as a dynamic destination for both shopping and dining. Visitors are encouraged to explore the new restaurants and enjoy the expanded culinary offerings available within the centre.
