I’ve never had polish food before but this food was AMAZING!The pierogis were my favorite, then the crepes, and the goulash.The pierogis are polish dumplings. They have great texture and very flavorful fillings. My favorite filling was the sauerkraut. I was very surprised because I’m not a huge fan of sauerkraut but these were amazing.This is a must try when coming to Columbia MO.

The sweet lady who met us at the door is brilliant. She was so kind and interested in knowing who we were. The food was off the hook. The crepes blew me away!

O M G!Amazing food! Amazing people!My son is moving to MIZZOU to study engineering this month. Today, we stopped to get some crapes/nalesniki…As Polish Mom, I don’t have to worry anymore.My son is safe. Homemade food, like my Mom and Grandma used to make💕 Friendly staff/owners.My son said: “Mom, no worries, it feels like home already.” Priceless… do I need anything else?Thank you Cafe Poland!

My husband I visited this establishment for the first time the other week. We ordered some peroge, a few crepes, and the black currant drink. The drink was great. The food was greasy and made with what tasted like cheap ingredients. It was such low quality we couldnt finish our food. Will not be returning.

This little gem has the best crepes I have ever tasted. We had raspberry and hazelnut crepes. The charming Polish lady who makes them told me that they use fresh raspberries rather than traditional jam at suggestion of her son. All I can say is that they were truly out of this world delicious. Do not miss if you are in Columbia

Best authentic Polish food in the area.

Fantastic Peiroges, the owner is lovely. The atmosphere is wonderful. Proper cafe seating and experience.

Literally the best restaurant in Missouri.Everything was amazing especially if you mix everything together.The pierogis were so good and so was bigo.But the best was Lechl.10 out of 10 would a 100 percent recommend.

I have never gotten a bad item from this small polish restaurant. The owner is incredibly polite as well as very sweet. 10/10 i recommend this spot to anyone.

Ive had the potato/cheese pierogies and the spinach/feta crepes. Both are amazingly delicious! Also had the black currant drink, which was also delicious! Highly recommend!

So far my favorite stop for breakfast in COMO. Try the crepes both savory and sweet options, including the classic (Nutella), PB & J, ham and eggs, the list goes on. Also a full flight of traditional dishes from borscht to stuffed cabbage, European beers and great coffees.If I say I am in love that is because I am in love😂😜Eat here. Drink here. Support local!

Friendly service with yummy Polish crepes, pierogis (my fave filling is beef), and goulash (although I cant speak to the authenticity of the food). Theres very little seating options for parties larger than 2, and its all outdoor seating, which is not COVID-related.

Meh. Nothing to write home about. The egg and meat mixture in the breakfast crepes did not seem done. The sweet crepes have an odd sour creme cheese type topping that isnt listed on the list of ingredients. Maybe some like it but I found it rather overpowering and not pleasant.

Amazing pierogis and crepes. The strawberry shake was fresh and refreshing. The owner was extremely nice. We went for breakfast, but I would recommend any time of the day to try it out.

I love the pierogis here! I always get a mix because theyre all good. I tried the black currant drink this time, and it was so refreshing this sunny summer day.

This place is the authentic thing. They make everything the way my grandma used to. Gotta give it a try, its terrific!!

The owner was so incredibly kind and lovely. Food was incredible and I cant wait to go back again soon! Highly recommend to any and all!

We ate at Cafe Poland today and had an amazingly great time! Its a small place and run by a family. The Peanut Butter and Jam crepes were wonderful! We also tried the breakfast hotdogs and loved it, too! The coffee was good and the service was terrific. Dont let the small size building fool you! We recommend this Cafe to everyone!

Delicious food, we had the goulash and cabbage rolls, yum. Had plenty to eat and left overs to go home. Very sweet owner!!

This is a shack in downtown with amazing food. Go up to the window and you are greeted by the kindest lady who takes your order. Since covid it is mostly take out. With two small tables and chairs outside. The crepes are to die for.

Am polish and have not had polish food this good since I was a kid. Really takes me back. Will definitely visit again when we come back through.

Amazing!! Pierogis are good, but I eat most of their other menu items as I think they are the most incredible. The Bigos and crepes are my favorite. Great portions, too.

This place is exactly what it should be. Its a small joint manned by a little old polish lady. Forget every other sauerkraut youve had in your life, this is life changing. The pierogis were poetic. The cabbage rolls will steal your heart. The sausage will make you tear up like the first time you saw your newborn babies eyes. Go to Cafe Poland right now!

A quaint and cozy place on the Locust street. Had a plate of potato and farmers cheese pierogies. They were very filling and absolutely delicious. The lady was very nice and courteous. 10/10 would definitely recommend.

Great food. Considerate and kind service. Free (really good) beer! Definitely check them out.

Absolutely amazing! 10/10! The Pierogis were exceptional and the Crepes...Good Heavens, the CREPES!!!

Cute little restaurant! Perogies were delicious!

Great service good prices

The pierogis are my fav but everything here is great. Their iced coffee is also so tasty, very much like a Thai iced coffee. Strong and sweet.

It was awsome. The owner is really friendly. Thank you. It was delicious!

We had a great breakfast, crepes....the sweet sweet polish lady was so delightful...the menu was full of delicious looking options...support local businesses, best food and coffee in town!!

Absolutely fantastic local business. Our favorite thing to get is the crepes that are served all day. The people that work there are wonderful and always friendly. The food is made quickly as well. We take every opportunity possible to eat here. They dont do dine in anymore, only pickup, but its still worth the trip over.

The hazelnut and strawberry crepes were delicious! Definitely worth the stop!

Cozy café with delicious food. The pierogis are top notch and the woman who owns it is a gem. Shes one of the hardest working people Ive met and she treats customers very well. I would absolutely recommend this place to anyone who lives here or is just visiting.

Crepes were great, owner was sweet and attentive to requests. Coffee was top-notch.

Delicious food right on the edge of Mizzou campus. We had the sampler and the traditional Polish strawberry milkshake. They were amazing! We are definitely coming back to try other menu items!

I was impressed with the customer service provided. We arrived before the normal hours of operation (unknowingly), and saw the door was open so we stepped in. No other customers were there but we smelled food being cooked. Figured maybe it was just a slow morning. We rang the bell and were greeted by who I assume was the owner. She told us they werent open yet but insisted we could stay and eat if we wanted perogie. So we took the kind gesture and agreed to have a seat. She brought us some water and a couple glasses and then disappeared into the kitchen after she knew what kind of perogie we would like. She returned with our orders a few minutes later and left us to go back to work preparing for the morning breakfast rush. The women was very nice and checked on us a couple times between working in the kitchen.The food was prepared well and tasted pretty good. I had never had perogie so I have nothing to compare it to but I would bet its probably an authentic recipe.

Got potato and bacon perogies to go and couldnt have been more pleased.

Delicious food, cute place, friendly owner.

I expected fresh polish sausage, not smoked. Strawberry shakes were awesome but expensive for the size. The lady was very nice but the polish plate was very expensive.

Hands down the best restaurant in columbia

The food is remarkable. Just wow. I stop in for a strong espresso on occasion too. The Polish immigrants who run the place are very kind and it feels good to help them out too.

SERIOUS COMFORT FOOD!!! It is sooooo tasty!!! Stop what you are doing, and go now! If you were looking for authentic eastern European block food, then go no further. This immigrant couple has perfected, nare dare I say elevated, the Polish cuisine. Don’t come here looking for some polished corporate, tiny cheap package. Come here to find authentic food, that is quality, and you will pay for quality. Go to McDonald’s if you’re looking for cheap quick stomach filler. Come here if you want to taste a part of the world, that most of us have no access to. Throw off your shackles of the corporate “Crapplebee’s “ experience and let the waters of your soul rest in a people, and a food that is completely unique! Will this cure cancer? Nope! But it’s an amazing food experience both for the pallet and for the soul.

This is the best place to get polish pierogies and their coffee is to die for. I cant wait to try other delicious treats the Polish sausage is going to be next.

My Name is Ben Fischer, my wife own Insurance Group of St Charles Co LLC in OFallon, Mo. I will drive out of my way to eat there food, wonderful home cooking.... We are coming back to try other menu items

Neat little place with delicious food that looked beautiful, too. So glad we found this treasure!

Fantastic! Cute place and sweet staff. I felt like I had my polish grandmother home cooked a meal and sent me on my way with some with some.

Great service, amazing food. One of my favorite places in Columbia.

Great food and friendly people 🙂

Great food and lovely conversation with the owner and fellow member of my polish heritage.

Very good food, and very fast service.

The place is small, quaint, and homey, and oh man is the food good. The owner is probably the sweetest woman in Como and is passionate about bringing polish food to the Midwest. Definitely recommend the Pierogies!

This is the definition of a hidden gem. It is a tiny restaurant run by a Polish immigrant family. The lady of the restaurant comes out to talk, and to discuss Poland. The menu is classic Polish fare... I had to make the terrible decision between pierogis and the cabbage rolls. I chose the pierogis, and they were amazing... would have tried the cabbage rolls as well, if I had had enough space in my stomach. The long and the short of it is that the pierogis were fresh, homemade, and served hot... they were fantastic... with potatoes, with ground meat... I will be back each time I drive through Columbia!

Great place to eat! Very authentic and food is delicious. I had a hotdog with the best sour-kraut I’ve ever eaten on it. The lady was very nice and helpful. Excellent staff.

Unlike any other experience in the area! Words fail to describe how great the food and hospitality are. This family truly cares about what theyre doing. One bite and youll see!

Shared a Polish plate with my girl. We really enjoyed everything on it.

I grew up eating polish food my entire life as both my parents are polish. This place has the most authentic polish food out of any restaurant I’ve ever tried!! Has a really home cooked taste, extremely similar to how my parents make their food. You get the real deal here.The people working here are always super nice. I make the 2 hour drive from KC because the food is just that tasty. The bigos and stuffed cabbage rolls are to die for. You’re missing out if you haven’t tried this place yet.

Very cute reasteraunt. Was very happy with my food here. I would recommend the potato cheese pierogi. Would come back.

Great atmosphere, tasty crepes, very nice owner

The woman behind the register gave the warmest hospitality Ive received for, well, years. I enjoyed the perogi, getting two of each kind, and had a cup of the drinkable borscht alongside. The meal was so filling, and it was delicious. Glad to have stumbled upon this place.

Fresh food and great staff. Loved the borsch it reminded me of home.

Good food, good beer, good coffee, good vibes. 100% will be back here.

Killed my tastebuds in the first bite and tasted nothing the rest of the meal ..the batter on those wrapped beef snacks is very strange .. not sure if it wasnt done enough or if it is how it is supposed to be but i am sure it is nothing for me ..apparently other people love it so its probably just me.

Real authentic perogies with some of the best crepes Ive seen. Ill be stopping back by as they were friendly and offered great service.

Delicious and authentic!

Such good food and friendly service! A hidden gem of Columbia

The sweet, wonderful lady who owns the restaurant took great care of us, and her food is delicious!

I have no complaint about the food, which was quite good. I was ordering for three people. However, upon arriving to pick up my order, a very RUDE and impudent woman proceeded to verbal lecture me about using GrubHub, which apparently takes a commission. He was extremely haggish to me! Ill never go here again, and want it known what a horrible first impression I got of their customer service. ***No Stars From Me!***

All of the food is so good. Owner is super sweet.

An excellent ethnic experience. The most authentic eastern restaurant within 100 miles. Its worth trying everything on the menu, not just the perogies.

Lovely little place with scrumptious food and European beers. The borscht is amazing!

Absolutely amazing!!!! Came on a Sunday at lunch and got the Bigos. It’s sauerkraut cooked with beef, pork, sausage and bacon and a nice big size of mashed potatoes. My friend got the spinach and feta crepes! All home made and made with love!!! Will be coming back.

Delicious, authentic, made with love ethnic food. Cafe Poland is a treasure!

Pierogies were good but way too expensive being that I just drove from Pittsburgh Pennsylvania and the original home of pierogi Plus.And being that I could have a dozen of Frozen pierogies shipped to me from pierogi Plus for cheaper than I paid for a dozen of Perogies hair why wouldnt I do that I did not know that until after I ordered them not realizing they were $9 per half-dozen when pierogi Plus in Pittsburgh Pennsylvania charges $9 a dozen.Looking at the website the price is deceiving cuz I looked at the website and then went to the window and ordered three dozen of pierogies and was told $54,000 then I actually looked at that are handwritten menu to the right of the building and seen that they were $9 per half-dozen not $9 a dozen as assumed on the website

Such a unique experience! Authentic, from scratch Polish food. Colorful and clever decor. Kind and helpful service.The only thing that would have made the experience better was if they used real dishes instead of paper plates. I will be a return customer next time I am in CoMo.

Housed in a tiny building at 807 locust is a rare polish restaurant with amazing home made polish specialties. I had the stuffed cabbage that came smothered in a fresh delicious tomato sauce and mashed potatoes. I paired it with a large dark german beer. The goulash also looked fabulous and the crepes.......sublime. This place is simple and not fancy in any way but the food is first class. this is an independently owned and ran business and it shows with their friendly demeanor and the carefully thought out and prepared food. An amazing and fun and unusual food treat.

Quick service and great food and drink!

Great food!

Was completely taken with this place. Perfect perogies, check. Solid traditional sides with plentiful sour cream, check. Cranky but hilarious Polish woman, check. The remarkably decent and cheap coffee with free refills was a pleasant surprise. Room was small, on busy days I can imagine it feeling crowded but I was there in summer. Will go again next time Im in town.

This place is awesome in every way. Walking up to the front door of an old house and ordering the best pierogi Ive had stateside was awesome, and Ill definitely be back!

A few friends and I stopped in one night on a whim while looking for a place to eat. We definitely made the right choice! Not only was the food spectacular, the owners were incredibly nice as well! They asked us questions about our majors in school and about our lives in general, and were genuinely interested in our stories. I definitely will be going back!

Very small business, owner is Polish and makes amazing pierogies and crepes. You can get frozen pierogies to go as well. They come with easy to follow directions for preparing. I live in kc and make a special stop when driving through on my way to Illinois. It is a must do in Columbia.

This place is amazing, everything taste great and fresh. The lady working the stand is super friendly and takes care of the people that come.

I hear they are tearing this place down. So you should try to visit as soon as possible. Allow plenty of time to hang out and make conversation and drink with your friends and the amazing staff. The place doesnt serve alcohol but I think is BYOB. We brought a six pack of Polish beer and enjoyed it and shared with everyone. If you have eaten in Green Point Brooklyn you have been to places like this but they are more remarkable and exciting when they are in the Midwest. GO HERE

Delicious crepes and wonderful lattes. Toasty warm restaurant. Egg, spinach crepe is savory and blueberry crepe is perfect - not too sweet. Just right!

This place was delicious! Just like grandma makes. We had the perogies, borscht and pepper stew with sausage. The lady who makes the food is fabulous and pleasant. Will definitely return to try more food

A quaint jewel in the heart of downtown Columbia. Excellent, AUTHENTIC food. The pierogies are so tasty. Try it out. You will not be disappointed!

Authentic, home cooking feel

Great food, sidewalk access

If your ever in Columbia you must try this place! A tiny house that has amazing food and extremely friendly staff! Thank you Cafe Poland!

Best pierogis ever!! I eat them everytime Im in Columbia!

Food was amazing! Some of the best pierogies Ive ever had!

Brought the family 3 years ago during our trip to Columbia. It was such a surprise how delicious the vegetarian options were. We bought extra frozen to take home with us. It’s a cute, indoor food truck and the owner is very hospitable.

Great place.

I am a new MU student and popped in here with a friend one day when we were out for lunch. The food was incredible and fresh and the employees were very friendly. This is a lovely, homey place to grab a bite to eat with friends and experience amazing food thats different from what you might find elsewhere.

Quaint, mini, old-fashioned restaurant. There are just a few tables, the menu is on the wall, no server, order at the counter. Water and cups are at the front, free coffee by the kitchen. We came in to try a new place/flavors. We got a sampler, it was all delicious. I even tried sauerkraut. The staff was pleasant, helpful. Its a nice experience. Well be back.

The tiny alcove offers the freshest, most delicious variety of crepes. Mix n match your sweet and savory tastes and sip your coffee while chatting with the owner or leafing through a magazine. Truly a Columbia gem.

This place is a gem in the center of Columbia! If you are looking for good, homemade Polish cuisine, this is the place for you! The couple that runs the establishment is an amazing, cute couple. They put the home like kitchen work into their food and serve it in a thoughtful manner. HIGHLY RECOMMENDED BY ME! Dont miss out on this diamond in a rough.
