Website for Polufka — a bar in the student district of Gdańsk Wrzeszcz, built around three things: beer, live sports, and board games. Built on WordPress with a custom PHP theme.

What the venue offers

Polufka positioned itself as the go-to spot in the student district: a warm, atmospheric pub for watching sport, playing board games, and meeting over a beer. The site reflected that character — dark wood-paneled design, a playful tone throughout the navigation (Po Piwku?, Po Lufte?), and a blog-style news and events section keeping regulars up to date on upcoming screenings and events. Full navigation: O nas, Po Piwku?, Po Lufte?, Napoje, Przekąski, Galeria, Kontakt.

The sidebar featured a calendar, an upcoming events widget, partner links, and a Facebook Like Box — the standard mix for a venue with an active community of regulars.

Mobile handling in 2011

Polufka — archived site, 2013

The notable aspect of this project was the mobile handling: the site shipped with both a full desktop version and a dedicated mobile version, served via user-agent detection. This was the standard approach in 2011 — Ethan Marcotte had published the responsive web design concept just a year earlier, and separate mobile templates were still common practice. The two-template setup meant the mobile experience could be tailored specifically to small screens without compromising the desktop layout.

The original site is archived on Wayback Machine. Polufka is still active — now at a new location in Wrzeszcz with a new site.
