Now I am married to a woman with Polish blood, so you think I would know good Polish food, right?…read moreWe go to the Polish fest all that jazz. But seriously... I don't recall having Polish food this good. Maybe the pierogies were comparable. I got the buffalo chicken. Coleslaw was very good. But the kielbasa and stuffed cabbage was way above what I've had. The kielbasa was just cooked to perfection. The outside was crispy. I think down home more often than not it's boiled or slow cooked. I have no idea how they are cooking this. Super accommodating even though I came in 20 minutes before closing and then chose to dine in. Which is just annoying on my part. I have no excuse either. It's just Monday night and I didn't want to eat in my hotel room. There is a nice window with stools where the sun hits you in the face. Maybe it's not a big deal? I'm just scared by working at a Landry mat. People were always trying to get in after last wash.

Our food was so delicious. I ordered the French onion soup which had a nice layer of hot melted cheese on top....delicious! For dinner, I ordered the stuffed broil dish including stuffed shrimp which was so tasty, stuffed baked clams and stuffed flounder. The stuffing was amazing and the dinner, delicious. My friend had the beef short ribs which he enjoyed as well. The wives had the kielbasa which was huge and the chicken dish (I forgot really what she had) and they both enjoyed them completely! What an amazing experience we had as you seem to step back in time inside their old tavern! The decorations keep you busy!

This place has gone way down hill. The waitress was very nice but completely overwhelmed. It took…read moreforever to get our appetizers. By the time they finally arrived we were starving. 2 in our party ordered margaritas & the mix was too sweet. The glass they were served in were so small you can drink it in 3 sips, as they were filled with too much ice & little to no alcohol or the tequila was watered down. I suggest beer or wine if you come here because they can't water that down. My cosmo was undrinkable. So sweet & again no alcohol or watered down. I sent it back & enjoyed my water with lemon instead. The salad they serve with the meal is bagged salad kit. The mixed vegetables they serve with your entree are frozen & tasteless. We were all looking forward to coming here & we all left disappointed. We have been coming here for over 20 years & it seems as though The Birchwood has lost its magic. After yesterday's experience we will not return for a very long time, possibly ever.

Heading home from a weekend in the Berkshires, we were think about lunch when I remembered this…read morespot which I had read about & made a point to keep it in mind for when I found myself in the area. My husband, who's grandmother immigrated from Poland, grew on this fare & he rarely gets to eat it now. So, he was thrilled! We easily found parking very close and, as it was a bit early in the lunch hour, found the place mostly empty. It was a cute, clean little cafe with several small tables to eat in. While we were there, the Monday lunch crowd quickly followed with dining & take-out orders. We ordered at the counter ( oddly, still protected by a huge plexiglass barrier ). The young lady was very helpful & knowledgeable with our menu questions. We ordered, paid and found ourselves a seat. When presented with the credit card payment, I noticed the gratuity pre-sets were at full-service levels & tipped as such. However, when we later realized that we picked up our own food & bussed our our table, we decided that we should have tipped for counter service. The food was spot on! Since i eat mostly vegetarian, I always find this type of cuisine challenging. But, a large list of house-made pierogis gave many options. I settled on a plate of six potato & cheddar with onion & sour cream. Since the kapusta here had no meat, I tried a side of that as well. The pierogis were perfect! Tender dough, flavorful filling - fantastic. The kapusta, a house made cabbage based kraut, was delicious as well & very filling! Half came home with me for another delicious meal. My husband, on the other hand, went all out with the PP - Polish Plate. He was thrilled to be able to mix & match the four pierogi, ordering three savory & one blueberry ( something his grandmother made which he's raved about for ever ). Like me, he found the pierogi perfect. He also enjoyed the kielbasa - very flavorful. The golabek ( what he calls golumpki ) had more rice than he prefers, but he wrote that off as personal choice and said it was very tasty & juicy. All in all, this was a good lunch stop & we'd return when in the area. Next time we'll be coming home with some of those delicious pierogi!
