The Scene – Gaudy "Dingus Day" Polish pride and political candidate signs are painted on the side, which serve notice at the end of the bridge as a gateway to the neighborhood of Bloomfield. Customers might find owner Steve behind the bar, with brother Carl checking IDs at the door and father Stan holding court with local Democratic Committee politicos at a window table. – – The Vibe – In the evening, tables are removed from the small stage and the tavern rings with the sounds of local music: folk and acoustic on Tuesdays; drum and bass on Wednesdays; various…

Polish Food?

by LornaBB44 at Citysearch

Okay, we heard some of the BEST things about Bloomfield Bridge Tavern, so myself, my husband, and cousin set out to try it. Being that we are all 100% Polish, we know great polish food when we see it. The staff, not sure if there were any owners there, were very pleasant and helpful. However, the establishment was very dark, and smelled of a typical old time bar room. Two of us orderd the polish plate-red, and one the polish plate-white, and unfortunately, we were very disappointed. The kluski and haluski were flavorless, starchy, and kind of all glued together. The kielbasa tasted like Hilshire Farms or some other commercial sausage, but when you are thinking authentic kielbasa, it just wasn't it. The stuffed cabbage, which should be delicately flavored was so spicy that it killed the flavors of anything else. Because the staff was so nice, we didn't complain, but we are hoping that our half eaten meals were a clue. Sorry guys, but this one doesn't do Polish food justice.

The very best Polish food

by Billjr at Citysearch

I got a chance to meet the Frankowski family that own and operate the tavern. Nicer folks you won't find.

When I asked about the perogies I was told that they are made by an aunt of the owner.

My gawd! Melt in your mouth, the likes that I have never had before. (a little sour cream on the side). AHHH!

I am a big guy and the Polish Platter was more food then I could handle.

B. B. T. is yet another reason to visit the city of Pittsburgh.

  • Pros: Homemade perogies that melt in your mouth

Polish Platter...Try It!

by Eric_Schweiss at Citysearch

I was able to spend a quiet Saturday Afternoon at the BBT with some Polish gentelmen from Mercer County. We very much enjoyed the food and service and will return as often as we can. We missed meeting the owners and look forward to this. May I highly reccomend the "Polish Platter"! A taste of the homeland made to perfection!

  • Pros: Great tasting food, Nice atmospere
  • Cons: None
