Euro-Deli Batory

Shared the Polaski platter one early afternoon, it was delicious and we both left feeling stuffed! Definitely a winner if you want to sample more than one thing on the menu. Cozy and casual little place, looking forward to returning!

We went here on a hot summer day and started with a bowl of cold borscht. It was pink and had a dill flavor. It was excellent. The mixed pirogi plate was kind of a mixed bag– the sausage ones were ok. The mushroom ones were better and the cheese ones were the best. We shared some polish sausages and they were really good as well. The food is very well priced and there are about six tables in the market so grab a space if you can!

Have the borscht.
The Hunter’s Plate is great too but make sure you’re planning a calorie burning activity afterwards, like stalking prey through the forest or going to the gym.

It’s exactly as described — home-​style Polish deli food. It brings back some ancient memories of mine from going to the houses of friends of my mom when I was a little kid in Edmonton. But the thing is… I don’t think it’s that great. Everything is a little too boiled and a little too bland and. that’s accurate, but I don’t want to actually eat it. Sorry.

I have been going to this pierogi joint for years. Get a mixed pierogi plate with extra mushroom sauce and a side of sausage… The apple-​cherry juice is dee-​licious. Everything here is delicious! The soups, sandwiches, all of it. They sell their in house pierogis frozen as well, for snappy snacks at home.

The moment you walk into this cozy little neighbourhood joint, the heady smell of delicious, savoury home-​cooked food hits you. It’s the kind of place that’s easy to miss, so I’m glad my coworker introduced me to it.
The menu is a nice selection of Polish comfort foods including several soups (Québec favourites French onion and pea soup alongside the more Polish beetroot and veggie soups), sausage, stuffed cabbage, and of course pierogies! The onion, mushroom, cheese and potato pierogies are a sure bet, and a plate of them comes with a little coleslaw, sour cream, and salad. Eat them in the cozy little dining area or take them to go.
They also have various Polish products including some grocery items, DVDs, and other suchlike imported treats. Personally I like to grab one of the inexpensive Polish chocolate bars (75¢ — $ 1, just past the fancy expensive chocolate bars) to top off my comfort meal!

Un endroit incroyable pour se régaler de plat polonais traditionnels. Un petit restaurant avec épicerie sur place ou à emporter. Toujours un vrai régal et jamais déçu !

My boyfriend was first introduced to Euro-​Deli Batory by his good friend, who incidentally had lived in Poland for many years. We’ve since moved just down the street from this little secret of a place (not necessarily a factor in our decision), unassumingly nestled between the wood-​smoke bagel shops of central Mile-​End.
The menu is pretty straightforward, tacked up on a long strip above the deli counters of fresh meats and cheeses. They serve classic Polish homestyle fare, including pierogies, stuffed cabbage rolls, Polish sausage, hunter’s stew, borscht, and potato pancakes. They even serve fresh (and bottled to take home, if you want) tripe soup, as well as what I term «the man plate» — the «Polski Talarz», which is made up of a huge medley of everything.
Inside, wooden walls give the impression of a small, warm cabin in the winter, ideal for the lengthy Montréal winters. A few tables are tucked to one side, and sitting beside them, a tiny grocery section filled with sweet treats.
Service is friendly and quick. Prices are very reasonable and the food is always cooked hot and fresh. Really, what more can you ask for?

Lovely polish fare in this cozy small dining room
Very much enjoyed the polish platter (see photo).
Excellent value for stick-​to-​your-​ribs food
recommended.
They also have a few polish groceries and food to take home.

Amazing heaping plates of crazy delicious perogies are to be had here, along with some of the best borscht (hot or cold) I’ve tasted. The spot is tiny, part specialty Polish grocer part restaurant (maybe 4 small tables total) all hot Polish lovin. The windows steam up in the winter and you can sit in companionable coziness eating your mounds of winterizing goodness, watching the cute families and couples mozey along St Viateur. Batory is located right next to the gorgeous church on St Viateur that hosts great craft fairs in the basement, making for an excellent one two punch of yum and yay.

This lil’ deli is housed in a mini Polish emporium that sells groceries, movies, and magazines from the Motherland. The cornerstore vibe offers up quick and friendly service, and delicious, quality, authentic Polish food.
Go for the potato-​cheese perogies, Ukranian borscht, and side of sauerkraut and sausage. Nothing fancy here: just simple, classic Polish fare. Once you’ve discovered this place, I guarantee you’ll be planning your next lunch there! Did I mention that it’s cheap too?!
Easily my favorite diner in Mile End.

If I’m totally honest, and calculate this according to the following formula NUMBER OF VISITS x AMOUNT OF PLEASURE PER VISIT, Euro-​Deli Batory is my favorite restaurant in the entire city. No other restaurant even comes close. I told someone behind the counter this one time and he blushed and ran back into the kitchen. Recommended: potato-​cheese perogies, kielbasa, bigos, Ukrainian borscht, spring borscht (in the spring and summer).

Amazing cheap polish place. The perogies are to die for!
Also, this place has polish desserts, groceries, movies and magazines… Basically if you’re at all interested in Polish culture, check this little gem out!
