Piast Meats Provisions - Garfield

The food is outstanding, the service is impeccable, and everything is always prepared fresh.

I just had the meat pierogies, and they were wonderful! I used to live on Somerset Street, and it's been fifty years since I've been out of Garfield. My daughter ordered some gifts online, and it was such a delightful surprise!

On a positive note, their kielbasa and pierogis are still decent, which is why I’m giving them 3 stars. However, I’m not alone in my sentiments. Piast used to have long lines, especially on Saturdays, but when I visited on October 8th at 1 PM, there was only one person ahead of me. Unfortunately, I ended up buying my usual items, but my wife, son, his girlfriend, and I were all very disappointed with most of the food. We didn’t eat much and even ended up throwing away the smoked bacon after trying it. It’s truly sad to see such a once-great place decline.

Lately the owner decided not to put any prices on any of his merchandise for speculative reasons hoping that you put into basket and pay. He knows that you will not ask anybody for prices because the people are behind counter and there is nobody to ask. I found out at home how overpriced his little cheeses were few months ago $1.50 and now $3.50. This is not the way to do business tricking people. Will never shop there unless he puts prices back where they belong!!! $14 for these four tiny cheeses. Be careful!

Because they have a catering kitchen next door, their dinner sets are great value! An entrée, salad and side is around $10 or under (premium options like ribs or pork knuckle cost more . The meats can be a bit dry, but overall they're decent options for generously sized family meals if you don't want to cook. (1 box can feed 2 small eaters. PS: They make their own sausages, hams, etc.
