Polski Supermarket

While Polish supermarkets appear to be ten a penny these days, for me this one is the pick of the bunch.
Aptly situated in an area which includes Polish Taste deli and St Simon’s Parish Church, it has an extensive range of stock, much of which looks like it has been named by randomly picking eight scrabble letters from the bag. One disappointment is that, although this place is supposedly licensed, no alcohol from the country is on sale here and indeed a fridge which is labelled «Fresh Beer» actually holds a range of Polish meats.
Nevertheless, Polski Supermarket has earned another thumbs up thanks to the range of Polish magazines, newspapers and books it has for sale. This is something I haven’t noticed anywhere else and ensures it’s an extremely handy resource for Glasgow’s extensive Polish community.

The Polski Supermarket is not quite as classy a joint as the Polish Taste deli a couple of doors up. Nevertheless it’s a great independent mini supermarket — and is definitely worth a trip.
As Chris said — with it’s bright red lettering it’s pretty difficult to miss. It’s also very brightly lit which makes it a very welcoming place on dark drich Glasgow days. (Check out my use of the word ‘drich’ then — see, I’m picking up the Scottish lingo!)
Obviously the Polski supermarket is popular with the West End’s Polish community. So much so, that sometimes when you wander in there you think that you may have accidentally stumbled over to Poland by mistake. However, this place is also frequented by students, arty types and food connoisseurs alike. Pop in if you fancy trying something a little bit different for tea tonight! (Personally, I’d recommend the sausages. Yum)

If your a fan of all things Polish in the grub department or even just fancy a look at some food stuffs with funny names then why not give this place visit. With its bright and colourful signage its pretty hard to miss this place located just of the hustle and bustle of Dumbarton Road.
With a big ol selection of genuine Polish goods and a fresh welcoming interior its clear this place does a good trade with the local Polish community and those with adventurous tastes alike. Never averse to trying out new grub i always pick up something when I’m in for a wander, my favorite is trying out the different chocolate bars, a real cultural connoisseur am i!
