Spoko, a pop-up and catering business, makes it its mission to combine traditional Polish recipes with modern 21st century flavors. Head to the company’s events page to see where it’ll pop up next. It’s most often found at breweries, especially Night Shift Brewing in Everett and Lamplighter Brewing in Cambridge, but has also appeared at farmers markets and other events. When you find Spoko, get the ruskie pierogi — a potato, cheese, and onion pierogi that is far and away Spoko’s most popular.

One of the most well-known pierogi companies around Boston, Jaju has found a permanent home at Union Square’s Bow Market. Sisters Vanessa and Casey White, Jaju’s founders, continue to book pop-ups and farmers market appearances around Massachusetts and distribute to stores around New England, but those in the Somerville area can head straight to Bow to get some of Jaju’s incredible dumplings. Try some of the more non-traditional flavors, like the butternut squash or jalapeño cheddar. The Somerville shop has kielbasa, too, and diners can bring their food into Bow Market’s brewery or wine bar.

Also in Union Square, Bronwyn serves pierogi filled with pork, potato, and spinach. They pair well with a German lager and a Haus wurst.

The pierogi dumplings have long been a staple on the Mei Mei menu — and while they’re not exactly traditional pierogi, there’s no denying that they’re good. The exterior resembles fried gyoza, while the potato-and-cheddar filling is pure pierogi.

If you’re looking for old-school Polish pierogi the way your babcia makes them, the Polish Triangle is your best bet. Head to Cafe Polonia for a sit-down meal at the most traditional Polish restaurant in the city. After your meal, head across the street to Baltic Deli, Cafe Polonia’s sister shop, and a grab a few bags of frozen pierogi to cook at home.

In the western part of the state, Janik’s Pierogi Cafe is one of the go-to spots for Polish food. Open since 2015 and operated by a mother-and-daughter team, Janik’s offers a variety of different pierogi flavors (sauerkraut and kielbasa, spinach and cheese, blueberry, and more) and has quickly become a local favorite.

Down in Fall River, Patti’s is a great option for those south of the city looking to get their pierogi fix. The menu is huge — traditional pierogi are joined by “Buff chix max and cheese-ogi,” “steak teriy-ogi,” “pizza-ogi,” and lots more, not to mention mini bacon-wrapped pierogi. Make sure to order one of the many dessert pierogi — a rare (and very underrated) offering in the States.
