Polish tavern in Denver?

Jul 20, 2005 8 Replies

I'm looking for a good Polish tavern in the Denver Metro area. Does anyone know of any?



Thanks


(carefully avoiding any joking) So... What characteristics would define a "Polish" tavern ...?

Yeah, but what about furniture polish?

No! You would end up with a polished tavern, not with a polish one :P

Draught Zywiec, Okocim, EB, or similar lagers. Bottled dark beers like Zywiec Porter or Okocim "Dunkles." Option of adding strawberry, cherry, or ginger-flavored syrup to your half-liter glass of draught lager. Pierogies, bigos, barszcz, sour cabbage soup, and other hearty Polish eats to accompany. And that's just for starters.

Well, that's what Polish taverns are like in Krakow, anyway. I doubt they're like that in Detroit or Chicago. (Denver? You gotta be kidding.)

I think a Polish tavern would have a lot of Polacks in it.

Are there any anywhere in the USA?

If by Polish tavern, you mean one that has a lot of Poles hanging out at it, just head to the Northwest Side in Chicago and you'll run across somewhere in the neigborhood of a bajillion of them.

There are probably even a handful that are reasonably close to what would be found back in the home country, just like you can find a lot of reasonably close facsimilies of things back home in neighborhoods full of immigrants.

Denver? Last I knew, the current wave of Polish immigration wasn't heading to the Rockies in any significant numbers.
