If you’re not in the mood for pierogi, fear not! The cafe also offers a range of delectable breakfast options, including the savory breakfast sandwich and delightful egg bites. Pair your meal with their renowned coffee, and perhaps experience one of the amazing lattes that make this place a standout, as shared by satisfied customers like Katie Cheesmond who raved about the atmosphere created by their lovely staff, particularly in “bringing a smile to our face on a grey day.”
The dining atmosphere is incredibly inviting; it’s cozy and creative, adorned with local art that adds a touch of charm. Many regulars mention how the staff quickly become friends, knowing them by name and treating them like family. Derek Lackenbauer highlights this sentiment beautifully, noting just how the lovely ladies behind the counter make every visit feel like coming home.
The Perked Pierogi is more than a cafe; it’s a community hub where everyone is welcomed with open arms. There’s even a thoughtful “pass it forward” wall for those who might need a little extra kindness. This spirit of generosity truly sets this cafe apart—a perfect spot for anyone looking to enjoy delicious food while supporting a local business.
