Absolutely love this place! They have a huge selection of European products — always fresh and authentic. I never leave empty-handed. The staff is super friendly, and the atmosphere is cozy. You can even enjoy a great cup of coffee with a pastry or homemade dessert. One of my favorite spots in Concord!

The store is small, but there is a lot to choose from. There are dumplings that are already ready, uh, very tasty. I take it with beef, chicken and lamb, very good dumplings. And there is also smoked and fresh mackerel, but I took the fresh one, it is also very tasty. You can buy lard with layers uh with meat, it's also very tasty. I also I took Suluguni cheese, so big, unsmoked, because smoked isn't very tasty, but the white Suluguni cheese is big. Big package, very tasty. The sausage is also with pieces, I don't remember what it's called, but there are just pieces of meat, very tasty, tasty sausage, smoked. A little selection of pickles. These are tomatoes, cucumbers. I didn't take tomatoes, but I took cucumbers, they are also very tasty. Well yes, the only thing is, they add a little vinegar, but anyway, so that they don't disappear. So, very tasty.

5+ customer service. Great choice for the size of the shop—excellent selection of groceries and meds. Loved the chebureks and the beef pirozhki! The lady(if I’m not mistaken - Svetlana) and gentleman there had a great sense of humor, and their sincere care and smiles truly made my day. Thank you a ton, and bless you! No photos as pirozhki & chebureks were far gone then I was ready to take photos

Stopped by to get some pastries with espresso and try the wine flights seems to be the only place in the area offering them. Everything was great and service was top notch. The tiramisu cookie was delicious. Will definitely be coming back to this place!

Fantastic store with homemade goodies and event space This is a great place to find both your familiar everyday products and lots of exclusive, hard-to-find treats. One of the highlights is their homemade baked goods and sweets — truly delicious and made with love. They also offer fresh homemade salads, a variety of smoked fish (not just mackerel!), and unique snacks you rarely find elsewhere. You’ll find all the Slavic and Eastern European staples here — condensed milk, cottage cheese, dumplings, pelmeni, varenyky, and more. What makes this place even more special is that they also have a cozy event space you can rent for birthdays, workshops, lectures, and other gatherings. It’s a warm and welcoming environment perfect for small community events. Highly recommend stopping by — whether you’re shopping for something nostalgic and homemade, grabbing a coffee, or looking for a space to host your next event!
