New Jersey has a rich tradition in Polish cuisine thanks to a large immigrant population, but no Polish food has made quite the impact of the humble pierogi. This classic dumpling, packed with traditional fillings like potato, cheese, sauerkraut, or even cooked fruit, can be found on the menu of countless Garden State restaurants. But at one tiny Morristown cafe, you won’t just find the best pierogis in New Jersey – you’ll find them given countless modern twists. At Pierogies Cafe, the entire menu is almost entirely dedicated to this treat, with a large array of regular and vegan pierogies available every day and constant experimental specials being rolled out. If you ever wanted to eat yourself silly on this classic Polish dish, Pierogies Cafe is the place for you.
Located on a busy street in Morristown, Pierogies House wants you to know what they do better than anyone else - it’s right there on the sign!

The small cafe does a brisk business from take-out, but you’ll want to stay and savor these dumplings in a comfortable setting.

Every dumpling is hand-made here at the cafe, and filled with a wide range of filling. How wide? The regular menu features eight standard fillings, four vegan fillings, and that’s before specials?

Traditional pierogi lovers can have them simply steamed and served with sour cream and chives for that classic flavor.

But for those who want a little kick, get your pierogis fried and topped with fried onions and mushrooms. It’s old-world taste with a little extra punch!

Of course, man cannot live on pierogies alone, so try some of their other Polish specialties - potato pancakes, kielbasa, Hunter’s Stew, and stuffed cabbage.
