Wasn't impressed with offerings....counter lady was not at all helpful and in fact seemed like we were imposing..... Not ever going back

Hidden beneath the hustle and bustle of The Ancient Order of Hibernians lays this oasis of Polish dining. A place to meet and to be met. A place to see but not just to see. It's been 17 Winters and 16 summers since last my lips were touched by the sweet dumplings of SNR Europa. I've spent many an afternoon in careless avoidance of my more imminent surroundings longing despondently for a time when I would lackadaisically saunter through those doors and be transported. Transfixed by the sights, sounds, smells, and moods. In the room, the women come and go, talking of Michelangelo. Meats and baked goods displayed proudly. This is their day in the sun. It's showtime. read more

Man do I love Polish food. Hearty meat, potatoes, fried things...what's not to like? I always heard that there was a Polish deli around here, but couldn't find it until I happened upon it one day when I was going out to dinner at the mediocre asian restaurant on the road opposite. I came back, and while it isn't very big it does have everything that you'd expect a Polish food store to have, and a lot of it homemade. The woman that runs the place doesn't speak much English, but she's nice and if I can make due then so can you. Best of all, like most Polish places, it is good and cheap. Things I've had include chicken and gravy, meatballs and gravy, and stuffed cabbage. Everything comes with mashed potatoes, they will mix things up, and it always costs between $4 and $6.50 for a portion that breaks down to 2 good sized lunches worth of food. Stuffed cabbage is far from my favorite dish, but this was a good--if filler heavy--version. The most important thing was there though: flavor. The chicken was very tender, the meatballs were spiced wonderfully, and the gravy they came with was tasty. I also like them using juniper beeries in both the meatballs as well as the gravy. None of this stuff was gourmet, but it was satisfying in a very homestyle sort of way. I have not bought any Polish goods (piergies, kielbasa, etc.), but I will soon! read more

Best store-bought pierogi in Orange County. (I love Quaker Creek in Pine Island, but their pierogi shells are too thick.) Kielbasa, smoked kabanosy, and dozens of other Polish specialties, ready-to-eat or refrigerated to take home and make yourself. A good selection of European groceries, too. I love the nice little Polish lady who works the counter, too. But even if it the shelves were bare, and even if it were run by horrible people who slapped me in the face every time I walked in, I'd still buy my pierogi there. They're that good. There are one or two little tables if you really want to eat there; I never have because you're basically eating lunch in the middle of a convenience store. Added bonus: Walk out of the store and look across the street. See that dilapidated little blue house? That's where yours truly had his humble beginnings in the late 1970s! Isn't that exciting? It's like you're walking through history. read more

Snr Europa Deli - the front of a polish deli - Delis Near Me - Monroe, New York

This place has really great pierogies, and the tastiest stuffed cabbage. A really great Polska deli. Every year they are at the Apple Festival in Warwick, NY and I've traveled over 45 minutes away from my mom's in PA just to eat at their stand. I have a sick obsession with pierogies, so I know the good from the bad & ugly- trust me these are the good ones. A must go for great Polska food & good prices. read more

Ok... She's got a confusing mess of household goods and food going on here, an outdated checkout system, and opens whenever she feels like it...but you gotta love SNR Europa Deli. Just don't expect her to always open when she says she'll be open and you'll be fine. She carries an amazing selection of kielbasa and other deli meats. I count at least a dozen different types of kielbasa at any one time, ranging from the wonderful kabanosy (think hunter's sausage), the silky and ham-like krakowska, and even fresh kielbasa. She carries an excellent selection of the noodle arts...many kinds of pierogis, those amazing little potato mush fingers, and everything else you could want. Her selection of dry goods is great, too. She sometimes has good baked goods, sometimes not so much, usually seasonal. She always has the TV blaring Polish television. You'll always here Polish being spoken. You may encounter Polish people eating at the little hidden-in-the-open dining area at the front of the store. It is a great place to shop and a cool experience for second and third generation Polish-Americans to connect with their roots. What are you waiting for? Wait for the afternoon...then go and buy some Polish food!!! (Just a note, some time prior to March 2018, SNR Europa went under new ownership. There have been some changes and renovations. I always afford a business where I'm a regular a few visits before posting updating a review, so once I have a better feel for the "new" SNR Europa, I'll post an updated review. As of right now, only comment is that the store is a lot tidier, but with a bit reduced selection). read more

If you're looking for a real taste of Polish food .... This is your place. Fresh large assortment of kielbasas and hams. One of the best stuff cabbage and potato pierogis I ever have. They have also imported products from Poland large variety. The prices are medium low. read more

If you want to waste an hour and a half, this is the place to go. This is the most inefficient deli I have ever been to. They are extremely slow and spend 15+ minutes helping 1 customer at a time. Definitely not worth the time! read more

Ok so I needed to give them some time and experience some of their specialty items. The head cheese is sooooo delicious! I'm completely addicted. I still have to say that they should tighten up their stuffed cabbage game but the Kabanosy is on point. read more

I've been meaning to check this deli out for a long time. I am Polish, so when I walked in it was a little piece of heaven. It's a little shop, but they had a wide variety of smoked meats, kielbasi and Kabanosi, headcheese, smoked fish, bigos, several kinds of pierogi's, canned goods, cookies, candies, etc. I got headcheese, which was excellent, bigos, and saurkraut and mushroom pierogi's which I just fried up last night which were delicious, and so much easier than making them myself! (I do NOT eat the frozen kind offered in supermarkets!) A few downers, they were out of ryebread, but being a small specialty shop I certainly cannot expect them to always be perfectly stocked. Also I got a poppy seed streduel, and while the bread part was great, sweet and eggy, the poppy seed filling was strangely bitter, the only negative note on the food. Also the prices were really reasonable, for all that I bought it was $15 and change. Definetely will be visiting again soon! read more

Homemade polish cold cuts are truly delicious. They have some dry goods but I mainly go here for the prepared foods and the different meats. Really good ham and broiled pork belly. And the best part is if you don't know what something is, just ask and they'll let you try.Best stuffed cabbage, and perogies. read more

I walked in on a Friday around 1100. Both people (a man and a woman) behind the counter looked up as I entered. Neither greeted me. Both immediately went back to what they were doing. I swear I heard one of them grunt like I was interrupting something. I walked around for a few minutes checking out their inventory. As I turned around to ask a question the woman quickly turned and marched in the back....I left. Yes, she saw me. I can't imagine why anyone would want to spend their money in an establishment where the owner/employees are so rude and inattentive. Zero stars. read more

Half my family is Ukrainian and this place is like walking into my aunt's house on Easter... Soooo good.. since most of the "greatest generation" in my family has passed away I haven't had good Eastern European food in a long time... No longer, I've found a go-to spot for anything I'll ever crave! read more

Stuffed cabbage is not very good. Very little flavor or depth. Too much rice. Did not use chop meat but rather pork.. not my kind of stuffed cabbage. Disappointed. read more
