    You Pick Two Combo - stuffed cabbage, sauerkraut, kielbasa, green beans and a sweet cheese pierogi.
    Brittany L.

    LOVE this place and will definitely be back. Went for dinner and sat at the bar and not only had amazing food but service as well. I had a shot of crown with a Diet Coke back and enjoyed the casual normalities of conversation with the bartender. It was decently half full for a Monday night and keep in mind - THEY ARE CASH ONLY. They do have an ATM. But they have a full bar and an ambiance to match. For food, I went with the You-pick-two combo and did the stuffed cabbage and the kielbasa along with the green beans that come with it, the sauerkraut and then I upgraded my potato to a sweet cheese pierogi. Everything was amazing. My least favorite was the pierogi, but I typically always get good ones there. I even reheated the food because it was such a large portion that I had leftovers for the next day at lunch and it rocked. Definitely recommend for a good time and a great meal. Plan to send a little bit of money, because you'll want a lot of things since their menu is so huge! Street parking and a lot nearby as well. Have fun!

    Boiled Mixed Pierogi, included 2 Potato & Cheese, 2 Kraut, 2 Sweet Cheese. Vegetarian if boiled (not fried)

    The staff was friendly and accommodating. The food was absolutely delicious. We ordered the mixed pierogi, which included 2 Potato & Cheese, 2 Kraut, 2 Sweet Cheese. All 3 flavors were delicious, but I highly recommend the Kraut with a side of sour cream! We also got them boiled, as opposed to fried, so they were vegetarian. (Usually they are fried in lard.)

    Fried pork chop, Dill Pickle Soup

    One of two polish restaurants in Hamtramck, mi. Everything from city chicken and pierogi to dill pickle soup and polish beer and vodka! Very nostalgic to being in grandmas basement.

    Very good polish food. I had potato and cheddar pierogis with sour cream. Also order a strawberry and cherry crepe (one of each). All were good though oily. The crepes were your standard pie fillings. Others dining with me enjoyed the polish dinner plate with beet soup. The bread, cracker, breadstick basket on table was enjoyed. The breadsticks brought back childhood memories. IYKYK. We loved the red and white lights decorating the ceiling and ornament garland. Not sure if another access is available but restaurant is located downstairs.

    Mushroom Soup

    Have grown up going here and will keep coming back because of the excellent service, fantastic traditional dishes, and lovely atmosphere. This place really makes me feel holly jolly - pictured are my favs, which is the mushroom soup and Zywiec!

    Leisurely dinner & drinks on outdoor patio. It is filled with totally blooming flowers. Newer waitress, hustled like crazy. 3 of us shared a bunch of different food. Everything tasted great. Dill pickle soup, variety of pierogis , chop & city chicken dinner along with a Hungarian pancake.

    Dill Pickle Soup
    Rachel D.

    I really want to give Polish Village Cafe more than 3 stars but I just wasn't impressed. The only thing that was exceptional was the dill pickle soup. So tasty with potatoes and a light dill flavor. I'd like a big bowl right now. Besides the soup, nothing was very impressive including the atmosphere. The cafe is downstairs - not sure what's upstairs - and seating is limited. It's also dark and crowded. In fact, we were seated by the door and due to continual coming and going of people, all 5 of us were so cold. A suggestion would be to have someone take names before the door. Rather, people stood in the doorway with it open. Brrrrr I also wasn't thrilled about the perogies or the potato pancakes (half and half plate). The potato pancakes were greasy and reminded me of a hashbrown patty. They were better with applesauce but they were still just alright. The perogies weren't very warm or flavorful. If I visit here again, dill pickle soup would be a must but otherwise I'd try some different food items.

    Beet Soup

    With Polonia next door it's the battle of the pierogies! While Anthony Bourdain did indeed go to Polonia and sang its praises legend has it Polish Village Café was tapped first but with the narrow stairs leading to the cellar/basement level they were not able to get their filming equipment down there. To summarize my point of the dueling pierogies story my friends is this: Don't miss out on Polish Village Café! Try both places and you will get an accurate comparison of Polish cuisine. Similar yet different. I want to say the 4 of us ladies got phenomenal service from Alexis. She made great suggestions, was prompt, and was able to make a few modifications for my pickier friends. We started with the soup. Dill pickle for my friends and beet for me. This was some of the best beet soup I've ever had. My Polish babcia would make her beet soup and thicken it with sour cream. Other than my grandma I've never had a thickened and creamy beet soup until here. Dill pickle soup was also great with a tangy but not overpowering pickle taste. Wanting to sample a variety and also wanting leftovers I went with the pick 3 meat plate (city chicken, chicken livers, and fresh Polish sausage). Wow talk about a menagerie of food. The sausage alone was enough to feed 2-3 people. They put a beer gravy over the top which is something I've never had but it works. Chicken livers were deep-fried and slightly on the salty side but dipping them in the extra beer gravy proved to be a wise choice. City chicken was just as I remembered from before. Whatever breading they use somehow manages to stay in place but you still get the tender juicy flavor from the pork and veal that shines through. All four of us had enough food left over for lunch the next day. Prices are more than reasonable for the amount and quality of food you get. I'm excited to be living in the Detroit area again and will be able to satisfy my Polish food cravings whenever the urge hits!

    If you are in the mood for polish food, this is the place to go. The dill pickle soup is outstanding and honestly all of their food is so delicious. Reminds me of growing up, our grandma cooked a lot of these same recipes.

    Potato pancakes with sour cream and applesauce, so good!

When you walk in, you are welcomed by the staff and traditional Polish decor. We were shown to a table and asked if we preferred a booth, which I did, so they cleaned off the one that recently became available. This space has a family style feel to it. Everything on the menu looked so good, it was hard to choose, so I ended up getting the Polish Trio as an appetizer. They have it as an entree but it's the same food with a choice of salad. The trio included potato pancakes, 2 different pierogies (potato and sweet cheese) and Polish sausage. They have two types of sausage and allow you to choose which one you prefer. Everything tasted excellent! It brought back memories of being in Poland - a great experience. Our server was very nice and walked my mom through their gluten free options as well. I appreciated the amount of time she took with her. There are only two Polish restaurants remaining in Hamtramck so if you like the food, come out and support them. We will be back!

Instead, I got the potato cakes topped with smoked salmon. I absolutely loved the cabbage I got here last time so I ordered a side of that. It is soooooo good but they give you only a small portion.

Service was fast because there weren't many ppl in there at all. I got my order to go.

While you're here, if you are looking for an alcoholic beverage, grab a framboise! It's beer that doesn't taste like beer. I'd say it's more of a carbonated fruity taste...kind of more like a sparkling wine. I did not grab one but I was excited to see they sell it.

Being in the area though and having seen all the very positive reviews in Yelp I was compelled to stop in and give this business a try was was not disappointed. The sausages and Ham lunch meat I bought were well made and delicious and as good as any I have tried in the Metro Detroit area. The store also has a fairly wide and diverse assortment of Polish food/staples which I did not try during this trip but looked very tempting to me. Overall, if you are in the Hamtramck area and are into good authentic Polish Kielbasa as I am, you should definately check this business out. The positive reviews are well deserved in my opinion and this a business that needs to be sampled to be truly appreciated!

I got the chicken pot pie, the mushroom and mozzarella, cheddar, the potato and garlic, sauerkraut and mushroom, sauerkraut and onion. $87.04 The chicken pot pie comes with gravy and some crumbs to put on top. They have 25 different flavors, however, they were out of many and sold out , especof all the extra fellas. We cooked up the pierogi, sautéed some onions, kielbasa, kraut. We ate the potato and mushroom and mozzarella pierogi with the onions, cream cheese or sour cream. Pierogi took about 6-8 minutes on medium heat on the stovetop to brown some. The mushroom wasn't my favorite, as the mushrooms would gush out some water from it, was a rather unexpected experience, not for me. The mushroom and cheese were decent. The kraut and onion and the chicken pot pie fell apart somewhat during the cooking and flipping for us. The potatoes were as expected, not too bad.

The tacos were honestly less enjoyable than Taco Bell, and the pierogies were a complete disappointment. A Polish-Mexican concept could be creative and exciting, but this felt like neither cuisine was done particularly well. It's unfortunate that such a great Milford location is occupied by a restaurant that seems so badly in need of a full refresh--from the food and menu to the decor and overall atmosphere.
