When it comes to ethnic foods in Connecticut, Polish food is not usually the first thing to mind. We are famous for our Connecticut-style apizza down in New Haven, and we’ve got plenty of great Mexican joints and authentic Italian spots. But head to New Britain’s Little Poland area and you’ll find some of the best Polish restaurants in Connecticut! Here are a few of our favorites:

  1. Staropolska Restaurant: 252 Broad St, New Britain, CT 06053

  1. Polonia Taste LLC: 99 Broad St, New Britain, CT 06053

Huba Lider/Google Maps Polonia Taste, also known as A Taste of Poland, is a delightful little cafeteria-style spot that looks like a bit of a hole-in-the-wall. It may not look like much, but the food is delicious! Polonia Taste LLC, 99 Broad St, New Britain, CT 06053, USA

Lillian Correa/Google Maps The food is cooked in small quantities, so it’s guaranteed to be hot and fresh. This is another small restaurant with only a few tables, so many opt to get the food to-go. Polonia Taste LLC, 99 Broad St, New Britain, CT 06053, USA

  1. Roly Poly Bakery: 587 Main St, New Britain, CT 06051

Roly Poly Bakery/Google Maps Roly Poly Bakery is a little different than the other spots on this list: it’s a European food store specializing in Polish products, rather than just a restaurant. Roly Poly Bakery, 587 Main St, New Britain, CT 06051, USA

  1. Belvedere Cafe and Restaurant: 82 Broad St, New Britain, CT 06053

Belvedere Cafe and Restaurant/Google Maps Belvedere Restaurant is one of the newer restaurants in New Britain. This place is a little more upscale than the others on this list. Belvedere Cafe and Restaurant, 82 Broad St, New Britain, CT 06053, USA
