One of the best Schnitzel's in a bun. 👍
I come here when I want to eat while out on a more relaxed lunch or dinner date, or if I just want to clear my head while eating something that is not McDonald's.
Most people get takeout though.
Charming little bistro with authentic Polish food. My partner and I went in for the first time on a Saturday afternoon and had a lovely lunch. He had the cabbage roll dinner with mashed potatoes and coleslaw and I had the sausage dinner with mashed potatoes and a cucumber and dill salad. Both dishes were delicious just like babcia would make them. We shared a cake for dessert, decadent and not too sweet. Service was fast and friendly. We’ll definitely be back with friends this summer to use the cute patio.
Fantastic quality - the cucumber and dill salad was fresh and flavourful, and the cheese pierogies were lightly fried with bacon, easily some of the best pierogies I've ever had. If you're in Guelph, this is a must visit!
A great little gem of a restaurant. Family run with traditional style food.
Was excited to try this restaurant for the first time, but they decided to post a paper notice on the door saying they were closed today. Why not update your hours on Google Maps where people will actually be checking to see if they should drive over there or not?
Delicious homemade food and great atmosphere with lovely host. Wonderful!!!
Authentic polish cuisine, and the best perogies in the city! Run by the family owners too!
As someone who has been a customer here for 13 years, I will never go back and I recommend you not to go here. They have very bad customer service. You have to wait for hours for them to respond. They always have bad customer service.
A nice place for Polish food and beer

Love this little gem! Ordered cabbage rolls, chicken schnitzel, coleslaw, mashed potato with gravy, hot Earl Grey tea! Everything was just like gramma used to make! The sauce for the cabbage rolls was perfectly balanced. Yes! We will be back!
We were excited to try this little gem after reading the reviews so we drove from Hamilton. One of the worst experiences I have ever had . We didn't know whether we just grab a table or had to order at counter and then grab a table so we asked and the one lady took us to a table and wiped it off but did not give us a menu nor even take a drink order just complained about how busy it had been since opening that day. We sat there 10 minutes unnoticed so we asked for a menu. She gave us menus but still never asked if she could get us a drink. Another party of four came in and sat down. Five more minutes and another 5 people came in. After 20 minutes of being ignored she served the people that came in 10 minutes after us once again ignoring us. We got up and walked out the door and they didn't even notice. For all they knew we could have been leaving without paying or something. (We didn't even get so much as a glass of water.). So ignored again on our way out the door we will never go back! We took our business elsewhere! It is too bad because if it was good we would have come back another time with friends but I would not even recommend this place after their terrible service, or should I say lack of service that we received .
6 out of five. This is truly a lost art in our culinary diversirty and needs to be supported. An incredible experience in service and quality.

Called broken English but all the food is Polish/German. Very disappointed as an English man in Canada
