Helena Specialty Pierogies — Restaurant in Town of Rochester

I’m not the only one who’d drive hours to pick up my pierogies here. These are tender, delicate dough in an absolutely classic Ukrainian style (Poles will feel comfortable here too! 😆).

Order ahead is a possibility if you’re wanting out of season flavors (we special ordered 2 dozen blueberry). The jalapeños variant is not strictly traditional but WOW are they good.

This is a local, family-oriented business, so don’t expect cookie-cutter service. Respect the DECADES of work that have gone into building this business and its delicious high-standard products.

And remember: these products are made in hand-batches. Call ahead to reserve what you need if you have something particular in mind. When they sell out of a specialty item—that’s it, until someone is scheduled to come in and cook up...

I traveled over the mountain from Pine Bush. Realizing I forgot my wallet I was able to scrounge together about $24 hidden in my car I was able to get two dozen delicious pierogi. I think all said and done I was about a dollar short the owner was absolutely amazing and simply said God bless... I felt bad and went back out to my car and continue to scrounge around for more money I found $15 hidden under my seat and ran it back in and dropped it in her Ukrainian donation bucket. I absolutely love this place she is doing wonders raising money and selling goods and donating profits to the ukrainians. Keep up the good work. Thank you from the bottom of my heart Nicole from lovely ladies...

OMG!!!

I've been buying pierogi's here for years. The have the ABSOLUTE BEST PIEROGI'S I'VE EVER TASTED! Not only are they delicious, but they have a great variety of flavors, from the traditional onion or cheese, to flavors like horseradish, cheddar bacon ranch, and farmers cheese, they even have blueberry when in season. There are just too many flavors to list. My favorite is cheddar bacon jalapeno.

They are so awesome that I won't hesitate to drive the hou and 15 minutes to get my fix.

If you ever thought of stopping here, stop thinking and stop, you won't regret it.

I extremely recommend...
