Pequeña Polonia — Restaurant in Atenas

When traveling through the Central Valley City of Atenas, Costa Rica, you will want to stop at Kay's Postres, Café and Restaurante. This place is nothing, if not warm, friendly and satisfying. As soon as we stepped through the doorway, we were greeted and welcomed by its owner, Anya, who acquired it from Kay, the original owner, about 2 years ago. She personally sees to the menu selections, and teaches her kitchen staff how to prepare delicious baked goods and desserts, traditional American fare, along with some Polish treats which include the most amazing Pirogi's I have ever enjoyed!!! It was mid afternoon and we had not had lunch so we ordered breakfast (at 2.pm.go figure!), Pirogi's, and my wife had an exquisite Grilled Cheese Sandwich. Yes, I said exquisite cause it try is! This place is a mainstay among locals as well as Expats so you are sure to find your place...

What a fantastic find! This small Costa Rican restaurant surprised us in the best way possible. Not only do they serve delicious Costa Rican dishes, but they also offer Polish food, hearty breakfasts, and a touch of European cuisine that truly sets them apart.

The owner, originally from Poland, was incredibly personable and made us feel right at home. You can tell he puts his heart into every detail—from the food to the atmosphere. His passion for blending cultures on the plate really shines through.

Every bite was full of flavor and care. Whether you're craving something traditional or looking to try something new, this place delivers. It was a great experience all around—warm, welcoming, and absolutely worth a visit....

Even if you're stuffed from your meal take a dessert to go. They recently upgraded their tables and decor giving it a very...
