The best markets from around the world in the D.C. area are in Rockville. Located in a strip mall, this one is from Poland. Walk inside and the deli is the star with sausages and sandwiches. Then browse the aisles for perogies and more. It's a full on market with lots of options! read more

My brother kept telling me about this place, and we finally got around to trying it. And now I'm kicking myself for not coming here sooner! It's a small shop, but don't let that fool you! The shelves are fully stocked and quite packed with tons of imported items! They have a nice variety from sauces, canned produce, meal helpers, drinks, breads, snacks, and so much more. Their deli is where they shine, though! For our first time, we didn't know what to expect or what to even look for. The woman working there was super friendly and helpful. She even offered us samples of the sausages to help us decide! We wound up with three types of kielbasa (all amazing!!) and a handful of snack sticks. The staff overall was extremely helpful, and I'm sure they are used to dealing with a lot of "first-timers" in their shop. But, we didn't feel unwelcome at all; in fact, quite the opposite! We may not be from the old country, but we were made to feel more at home than just about any other store we've ever walked into. Park in the back! The front parking area is fine, but you'll be going up and down stairs needlessly and entering through their back door. The main entrance is level with their shop. Next time, when we exit with a metric ton (just kidding) of fresh kielbasa, we'll want to avoid the stairs! Prices are very reasonable, especially for the quality. We cooked up one of the three sausages a couple of days later, and they were by far the best kielbasa we've ever had! Very lean, very flavorful... simply perfect! I can't wait to visit here again. I'm already getting hungry just thinking about it. read more

Amazing place with amazing stuff! The place is small and cozy, but full of all essentials from Poland. If you want fresh pierogy, cheese, sausages, impossible to find in the US real European cottage cheese, buckwheat honey or Easter European herbs teas, this is the place! When I bought almost two pounds of fresh home-style kielbasa only for $12, I almost fell like robber, because it worth more than I payed. Polish pickles, birch juice and marinated mushrooms... Also, before shopping or after, recommend to order a small lunch. have staffed cabbage and duck putte sandwich or grilled kielbasa with sauerkraut! Cooked with love, like my grandma's dishes! Also people who are working there are amazing. Don't has irate to ask them - they will help you to find what you want, select what you would like more and just feel real Polish hospitality on yourself! read more

I saw this on IG and it looked so cute & interesting so I wanted to check it out. It was definitely out of my comfort zone - it's a teeny shop, none of the product labels are in English, and there was a bit of a language barrier with the staff. Both staff and other customers were patient and welcoming nonetheless. But hey, if you're up for a mystery meat adventure you will be awesomely rewarded. We came out with a couple of sandwiches (hot kielbasa, grilled cheese, and chopped liver), plus a few links of kielbasa that we had no idea what they were or what the difference was, a variety of frozen pierogi, and some fresh doughnuts & challah. Food is a universal language and even if you get something you don't like, what's the worse that can happen? The grilled cheese had rustic grainy mustard, which was too spicy for my kiddo but it was a yummy gooey adult grilled cheese. The kielbasa sandwich was perfect, you can't really go wrong with that. The chopped liver was fine, but I didn't care for the toppings on it. It wasn't for me but oh well, I'm still happy I tried it! This review is getting long but all of those provisions we took home were a thumbs up and I'd go again. Google translate app to help read the labels was really helpful. read more

Always a delicious surprise inside. Everyone is thoughtful and helpful and willing to help you find just what you want. Everything is delish! read more

This was my second time to eat here, but my partner's first. Since it's a small interior, it gets crowded fast. Patience is key for these hand-made, fresh delights - and the wait is worth it! The cabbage rolls rival my own mother's, a daughter of Polish decent. And the turkey sandwich was well-enjoyed by my husband. Looking forward to more cabbage rolls in my future! read more

Best Ruben I have ever had. I'll be back for more of the other foods. I like the fresh garlic used on the sandwich. All of it was perfect.

Polish / Czech grocery store. The meat counter is where it is at. There were so many smoked meats and everything, including the bacon, is ready to eat as is (though the lady behind the counter said it is delicious fried up in a pan). I loved that we were able to sample different bologna and kielbasa as we tried to decide what we wanted - the salami with mustard seed? just so good! I especially loved the selection of pierogies - not a huge fan of Mrs Ts because I hate mashed potatoes (I know! I am a monster!), but they had everything from the traditional to cheese to dessert pierogies that I am so excited to try. It was clean, the staff were friendly and helpful and apparently they do sandwiches on Fridays and doughnuts on another day of the week (I can't remember - sorry) suffice it to say, they have events, deals and a lot of unique items to discover! read more

Drum roll, please! Dat ta da or something close to that, for my 900th review I went to the Kielbasa Factory! I have to give a shout out to my good friend, Anna, who lives in Buffalo, New York! Thank you, Anna! I had admired her paczeki , a Polish pastry and she recommended that I go to the Kielbasa Factory. This pastry is brought in once a week, Friday's, straight from New York. I bought a pudding paczeki and a rose hip jelly paczeki! Both, were glazed and melt in your mouth delicious. I didn't stop at just ordering my pastries, I bought some potato and cheese pierogi's. They are freshly made in the store. They were tender, scrumptious, and made with lots of love. The potato and cheese made the perfect flavor combination. It was soooo good. You know where you will find me on Fridays. There are so many grocery items from fresh kielbasa sausages, polish cheeses, and deli meats. I was looking at all of the mustards and condiments available for purchase. Next time, I am going to get a fresh bobka and a meat soup with sauerkraut. Of course, I won't forget my paczeki's and pierogis. Thank you, Kielbasa Factory, and Anna for introducing me to these foods that bring a little bit of Polish heritage home with me. read more

Kielbasa Factory is a small but mighty Polish market & deli in Rockville/North Bethesda! They have great deli options including various styles of kielbasa, which I tried numerous of! Their market section was impressive and I bought some delicious looking pierogis and various rare preserves such as red currants and a low sugar lingonberry preserve, all which I am excited to try this weekend! I foresee routine visits to the Kielbasa Factory in the future read more

SO GOOD. Some friends of friends told me about this place and it did NOT disappoint! We didn't know what to expect, but they have all kinds of shelf-stable foods, snacks, goodies, and OMG the meat counter. You can get sandwiches/platters or purchase some meats to go and heat up at home (the kielbasa are already cooked). We told them it was our first time, and because we were interested in kielbasa, they cut us some thin slices to try of different varieties. Delicious! We also picked up some frozen pierogis and other snacks. We will 100% be back for more deliciousness. And the kids got a free lollipop during their visit! read more

After driving back home, looked at some of the packaged meat products purchased and realized it was all over a month past its expiration date. A four back of veal/pork hot dogs had a creation date of 10/10/24 from a vendor out of Chicago, IL. This does not sound like the meat is made in house or warrants a name of the store to be called Kielbasa Factory. Store was extremely crowded and they only have one cashier. Extremely overpriced as well. Meat prices are almost a dollar an ounce. Sorry, but this place just is not worth it. read more

Huge variety of meats and cheeses. Frozen Polish staples such as locally made pirogies. Pantry goods from Eastern Europe as well. If you want to practice or just hear a variety of European languages, give this place a visit. read more

Barzdzo Dobze. Very nice shop. Recomend the stuffed cabbage and the candies. The cow candies and the Ptasie Melko (birds milk) is really - really good. They have Ponchki (giant filled donut hole) which I highly recomend. The stores staff are super friendly and you can tell its a legit family business and not a chain. They even make sandwiches like the delicatessans you find in Chicago or New York which I love. Its a bit tough to see from the road since its on the second floor and the roads speed out front moves pretty fast. But I recomend parking in the back, it places you right there. Buy the Kielbasa its legit. Not that store bought hillshire processed crap. read more

Food is amazing and we drive over an hour each way. The sausages and pierogis are delish!

Great Polish food! I ordered a meat platter of different sauasages, kilebasa and ham for a party and it was a good size. Also we had pierogie, golumpke (stuffed cabbage) and Polish beer. All food was fresh and tasty. Sina, the owner, and the employees at the meat counter were super-nice and helpful about portions and how to cook the pieogies. Shopping and ordering was a pleasure. I highly recommend the food and service at this store. read more

Lots of fun food from Poland. Great sausage selection, have some sandwich selections..worth a visit

Man.... this is the spot for Polish and European goodies! The kielbasa and pierogi selection here is amazing! And for some of the kielbasa, they let you sample it before purchasing. You will never want to buy packaged kielbasa from the store after coming here. Strongly suggest the wedding kielbasa. It's delish! They have a great pierogi section, many kinds that are hard to find at your regular store. They have vegetarian, meat filled and even fruit like plum and blueberry! Prices are reasonable. And the employees are so sweet and helpful! Parking and entrance is located in the back. read more

This place is small and narrow but the kielbasa and breads are excellent! I came here lat month (Dec) and today and bought the Wedding Kielbasa and some bread. Both are so darn good. I will never buy Kielbasa from supermarkets anymore. The Kielbasa Factory's Kielbasa is something else. And the ladies working here are all kind and friendly. read more

I had a Ruben sandwich and it was delicious. The service was good however the place is small so I ate it outside. I will definitely go again. read more

Went to this place yesterday and spent $82. My order included a jar of pickles. I got home and discovered the pickles were bad. I brought them back the next day to return them and the lady at the register lectured me about how I don't know what a pickle is supposed to taste like. She argued with me for a couple of minutes before she finally agreed to return my money. I won't go back and I warn you before you go to be very careful about what you buy. Look at the pull dates on all the items!! read more

Until we found this place, we had to drive from DC to Baltimore to a small Polish deli shop to get all the goodies (smoked bacon, home made kielbasa, dried wild mushrooms, rye bread, pierogi, etc). A friend told us to check out this place In Rockville and I am glad we did. I bought tons of different cold cuts to taste, everything is delish. The only mismatched expectation was Mortadella but when I came home and opened it, it was clearly Bologna. I looked at the sticker label and it said "Mortadella Bologna Kielbasa". It is really funny as these are three totally different types. I was not disappointed though as it was really good ( just know that when you order Mortadella, you will get an excellent Bologna) read more

The WORST CUSTOMER SERVICE EVER! I have never seen anything like that. The manager is so discussing I can not even find words to explain it. Her attitude towards customers is awful. Pushing ppl to buy more stuff because they are closing! She said "You came to my store and I'm closing ... and you want to buy only half a pound of kielbasa?" .... Well, let me tell you something - I'm never coming to your store again! Learn manners and how to appreciate ppl, who make you stay in business in difficult times like this! read more

Used to frequent here for their kielbasa sandwich but this time I was really disappointed this time with their "special". Walked in and ordered the fresh kielbasa sandwich special before another lady but she got her exact same sandwich before me somehow. Ok whatever was gonna let it slide but then I open the box when I get home and they didn't even bother to give me a second piece of bread for the fresh kielbasa sandwich.... What? Is it even a sandwich without the second piece of bread? How does this cost more but they cheap out on a slice of bread? Not sure it it has to do with the fact that maybe the younger staff isn't fond of ethnic people or what because I've never experienced this with the more experienced staff members before. Not sure if I'll be stopping by as much because I definitely felt it was a targeted micro aggression against Asians read more

A few old school commercials: "Would you like a giant Kielbasa stuck in between two slices of bread with mustard and kraut for a ridiculously cheap sum of money. Like seriously! We're talking 5 dollars. When's the last time you got lunch for 5 bucks. And no, we don't consider Subway food! Come on down to Rockville and welcome to the Kielbasa Factory." Also, "Do you have a hard time finding all of your favorite Polish staples? Like handmade pirogies, fresh Kielbasas, and more! Soup mixes, Polish extracts, Polish candies! The list never ends! Hop on down to the Kielbasa Factory" or "Do you go shopping for Polish Groceries and have a hard time understanding what everything means?! *Confused woman with her hands in the air* 'Oh no! Not again!' Well, don't worry! The folks at Kielbasa Factory will explain it all for you! You got questions? They got answers! Pop on down to the best Polish shop in Rockville!" read more

Great store with lots of Polish favorites. Smoke parking. Great home baked bread. Lovely smile led meats.

It's Fat Tuesday!!! You know what that means?! Paczki!! That's what motivated this non red meat eating gal to venture onto Rockville Pike on a weekday. What can be better than a Polish Market to buy my fried ball of love from? (Folks in Hamtramck, MI wait in two hour lines for these.) Well... I was expecting to see mounds of powdered sugar topping these goodies. Instead, their paczki are glazed. I can't quite identify what they are filled with either. Generally it's jelly or custard. Mine kinda tasted like and had the consistency of ... apple butter. Hmm? I ate it anyway. Half now; half later. They're huge and worthy of the $1.25 price tag. However, I think I'll stick with Woodmoor Pastry Shop in the future. Paczki aside, just in case you are wondering, this is not a factory that makes kielbasa as perceived by the name. Maybe in the backroom they are. This place is the Polish equivalence of the front half of Cafe Mozart in DC. It has a deli. It sells all kinds of Polish goodies. Does a Cadbury chocolate bar taste different when it's wrapped in a Polish label? Hmm? Edit note: I just found out the filling was rosehip jelly. read more

Let's be honest, most European markets smell bad, they're rude, and based on the layer of dust you have no idea how long the merchandise has been sitting around. NOT SO with the Kielbasa Factory! This place is friendly, clean, well stocked and organized. I sampled several different sausages, bought some beer, mustard and a fantastically cheap grilled kielbasa sandwich. The sausage had a hot smoky taste and was delicious. This will be my go-to place to stock up on sausage, pierogies and on-the go sandwiches. Give it a try. read more

Met one of the onwers here. She is a nice woman. I believe her name is Kristina. The last time I was here, my ex-wife introduced me to the polish blood sausages and one other kind. What is in the blood sausage??? "Another specialty in the Polish food collection is the blood sausage -kaszanka / kiszka in Polish - made of a mixture of pig's blood, pig offal(commonly liver, lungs, skin, and fat) and buckwheat (sometimes barley orrice). All of these ingredients are stuffed in a pig intestine." It tasted very good. I did not buy the blood sausage this time around. I saw a lot of chocolate and I knew I had to buy two bars of the Kinder Milk Chocolate. They will come in handy for someone I know. read more

BP and I were very excited to visit the Kielbasa Factory, even though we do not eat pork. We came in around 6:15 pm and the store was empty save for the three women running the deli and counter. We got spoiled with samples of turkey, beef, and cheese. The blond woman also paid special attention to our dietary restriction. They all had accents ;) BP and I drooled over the variety of stone-ground and specialized mustard and chocolate coated cookies, but bought KinderEggs Surprise, potato and cheese and potato and mushroom pierogies, a corned beef sandwich from the deli and a half pound of turkey breast for lunches this week. We were told to come back for Paczki (almost like a jelly filled donut) on Fridays when the store is open until 8pm and that we can call and order ahead to ensure they don't run out. Looking forward to it! read more

Finally made it to this place after passing it almost every day. This is really more like an authentic Polish grocery store with a deli and prepared food.
