Summary/Abstract: The three consecutive parts of the article are an attempt to describe the history of milk bars. Although their existence in Poland dates back further that the time of the PRL, it was in those days that they were booming. It seems that during the transformation they were forgotten and treated as the relic of unwanted past. Today we can talk about their renaissance. The paper is also an attempt to indentify the sources of this phenomenon and their connection to the social changes in Poland.
