A tiny polish bakery making fresh pastries every day! Sometimes they run out at the end of the day. I find this place a little awkward and tight, like I’m being watched at all times. There are two tiny tables for seating if you wish to stay. They do ponchik here and is delicious! Very cheap also. Service is ok.

I have found that every non-French culture with their own version of French pastry usually misses the mark by a mile.(I’m looking at you, Portugal. I love your bread, but why are you making croissants?) Usually you end up with something dry, yeasty, sweet, and not croissant-like at all. The thing is, this place had croissants, chocolatines, and brioche à la cannelle and they were all delish. Not traditional, but not merely an empty shadow of what they should be. The croissants were nice and buttery, though not flaky, and the brioche, warmed up at home, was full of cinnamon and raisins and really quite nice. They also do cakes and other pastries, and have a couple of little tables for sitting with a cup of coffee. FYI, they don’t have decaf. Just, you know, if you were curious.

The place is tiny, and has a good vibe with all the things it sells. I bought two typical Polish pastries according to the lady. I’ve never had Polish pastries so I won’t say if they’re authentic, but the quality of the raw materials don’t seem to be super good. I’m pretty sure there were some artificial flavour in them… or maybe that’s how it’s supposed to taste…

Géniale pâtisserie polonaise qui offre de délicieux beignets fourrés à la confiture, pains et autres spécialités de la région. Franchement, leurs produits sont toujours frais et goûteux! Superbe référence dans le centre-ville si vous cherchez un dessert à apporter avec vous à un souper entre amis. Ils ont aussi une panoplie de produits de la région que l’on né retrouverait pas ailleurs(du moins dans le quartier) — chocolats, biscuits en boîtes, sucreries, conserves, etc. À découvrir!

Tiny Polish deli/pastry shop, specialising in Eastern European specialties. Particularly ponchiki. jam filled doughnuts, and Packy… a type of cake usually eaten at Easter, and of course, babkas. Two tiny tables, usually occupied, for an afternoon tea/coffee with your ponchik. the plum filled are super, as are the apricot,(but have never tried the vanilla cream filled), or pastry. Sadly, they no longer make sandwiches to either eat there or to go. Aside, from the sweet and deli, there are many different breads that are popular with the Eastern European set, as well as; teas, juices and jams imported from Poland and environs. Great little quiet place for a sit down(table subject to availability) and an afternoon cup of tea or coffee with a yummy ponchik.
