Very nice restaurant.I have been here 3 times. Each time I was more than satisfied.I very much enjoy all their varieties of perogies, and the cabbage rolls are very nice too.The atmosphere is great. They often play jazz, and the walls have nice images.The prices are fair.The host is very gracious and efficient.I would definitely come back.

Excellent food and service. The perogies were almost as good as my grandmother's who arrived in Canada post WW1. So that's high praise from me! The sauerkraut salad was awesome! The borscht.....yummy!I enjoyed the Polish and Czech beers on the menu.The owner was friendly and enjoyed talking to him!

Nestled in the heart of Penticton, the Polish Bistro is a hidden gem that offers a taste of Eastern Europe. Run by a legendary Polish fellow, this bistro is a one-man show, with the owner serving the entire place with unmatched enthusiasm and respect.The menu is a delightful journey through Polish cuisine, featuring classic dishes like pierogi, bigos, and kielbasa. The flavors are authentic, and the portions are generous. But it's not just the food that makes this place special. It's the owner's warm hospitality and genuine passion for sharing his culture.Whether you're a seasoned traveler or a local looking for something new, the Polish Bistro is a must-visit. Just be prepared to be amazed by the owner's incredible multitasking skills and the delicious food he serves with a smile.

Best perogies ever. We are from Vancouver and once drove 4 hours to come here. No jokes. We ended up getting a bunch of frozen perogies to go. Very unassuming, very affordable. Highly, highly recommend this place.

Professional, energetic, personalized service, coffee offered right away on the house, I felt a warm welcome.Ordered the Borsht with sour cream, rye bread from a local bakery and butter, the authentic smell and flavors of that Borsht reminded me the one my grandmother used to cook.The main dish was their incredible fully stuffed platter. You can taste the love and time put into their meals, I haven't eaten this quality for a long time;With their juiciest meat balls and handmade assorted perogies, I dare you to try the perfectly seasoned cabbage rolls with a spoon of sour cream on top!It would change your vision of the world!!!Highly recommend.

Just had dinner here for the first time. Quaint bistro, not pretentious just good food. We tried a variety from the menu and honestly it was all good. It’s what I call comfort food. Nothing fancy and they don’t fancy up your plate with garnishes but the flavours are there! We tried a variety of pierogies, cabbage roll, schnitzel with mushroom sauce, polish sausage, meatballs, and hands down my favorite was their house crepe which was stuffed with mushrooms and mozzarella! The waiter who I am pretty sure was the owner, was so personable and great to talk to. This restaurant will be on our regular rotation of places to dine!

My wife and I went for dinner last Friday.The food and service were excellent.I also enjoyed a couple polish beers.Prices are very reasonable.We came early and there was only one other table of two. By the time we left the restaurant was full. That says it all.See you again
