I came here for the first time to order several hot items to pick up the following day, which was…read moreFather's Day. The whole store appeared clean and well organized. The employees behind the hot bar were very helpful. I ordered kielbasa, two types of pierogis- sauerkraut & mushroom and cheese & potato, golumkis (stuffed cabbage), pork tenderloins, a tray of mixed vegetables, and cooked sauerkraut. I arrived the next day at the time planned and picked up all the items without any problems. I also grabbed a loaf of fresh rye bread and a box of assorted cookies/pastries. When we opened the hot food items, they were still warm and everything tasted delicious! We all enjoyed the bread and desserts too. Thank you Roly Poly for making our Father's Day meal a success!

Kasia Bakery - New Britain, CT…read more Kasia Bakery is an absolute gem for anyone craving authentic Polish baked goods and a warm, welcoming atmosphere. Every time I visit, I'm reminded of the care and tradition that goes into each item they make. One of the standout treats is the cheese and cherry stuffed babka--a perfect balance of tangy cherries, creamy cheese, and rich, buttery dough. It's a slice of heaven that pairs beautifully with a cup of coffee. Another must-try is their apple szarlotja (polish apple cake/pie), which is moist, fragrant, and loaded with fresh apple flavor. If you're in the mood for something indulgent, the creme-filled karpatka is a showstopper. Its delicate choux pastry and velvety filling are a true testament to Polish pastry perfection. Whether you're stocking up for a holiday or just treating yourself, Kasia Bakery never disappoints. The staff is always friendly and happy to help you find your new favorite dessert. Don't miss out--this bakery is a true treasure in New Britain! TIP: it's a very small bakery where you pick up and take out as there is no seating in the place itself.

I have bought from this bakery for years with no disappointments but the last few years it has…read morechanged! It was always a "polish" bakery. Now the employees do not understand polish or English. I have such trouble just placing a simple order. Also the quality of the bake goods has declined. The fillings.. apple, custard, poppyseed etc are barely even visible in the pastries. The prices have doubled but the quality has declined 3x . Today I visited this location and was disgusted to see older women touching and squeezing unwrapped breads with their bare hands. Gross! The owner needs to go back to the old ways and not cut so many corners to make more money.

I've had a frustratingly inconsistent experience at this bakery. The menu simply lists "cheese" on…read morecertain sandwiches, without specifying what kind--no mention of yellow or white cheese. However, depending on the day (or who's working), I've been given completely different answers when asking for white cheese. Some visits, they've added white cheese without any issue. Other times, I've been told they "can't deviate from the menu." That would make sense if the menu actually specified a type of cheese--but it doesn't. If the menu is meant to be strict, then it should be clear and consistent. I'm not asking for a custom creation--just clarity and consistency. Either specify the type of cheese on the menu or allow a reasonable choice if it's not defined. Right now, it feels arbitrary, and that makes the experience disappointing.

Sometimes I need help getting an order to my car and they're always willing to run it out to me if I call or carry it out with me. While they maybe don't have a100 different drink options, what they do have are thoughtful and well made. My go to is usually a strawberry matcha with boba, but I will often get one of their seasonal specials. I love their donuts too! They have fun rotating flavors and theyre so soft with that perfect mochi chew. I usually can't help myself and order one (or two) with my drink, but on Halloween I always get an order that includes one of each because they're sooo cute! We eat them with our friends while we hand out candy!

My sundae was packed with 3 large scoops, strawberries, sprinkles, whipped cream and a cherry. It was amazing. The ice-cream is creamy, not whipped full of air like others. The flavors jump out and grab you. My wife's black raspberry chip was loaded with chocolate. The pistachio ice-cream was loaded with whole pistachio nuts. We traveled farther but we didn't have better.
