Pierogi Market Place — Local services in Key West

I really don’t know how this place has all of these positive reviews. I assume because there’s no competition in the area to compare.

Interesting selections of beers, condiments, chocolates and candies, all sorts of really cool stuffs.

We ended up grabbing up some perogies, a few beers, lots of chocolates, and enjoyed our own little Euro Trip party in the crib. Fun fun; it's not all conch chowder, hog fish, and lobster in the...
