Polish Community Club Restaurant in Bankstown

We were full to the brim from restaurant hopping but thought that all the walking would have burnt off some fat. Not exactly. But nothing was going to stop us from going to the much talked about Polish Club twice (to check out if it's open, make a reservation, and finally have dinner there).


Klub Polski w Bankstown

The Polish Club is not exclusively for Poles but is open to visitors. It was a pity we could not find the grocery kiosk our Polish friend had mentioned. We were told by the guys at the club there wasn't one, possibly miscommunication or that the store was closed that day. The restaurant is only opened from Wednesday to Sunday. Even though the place was quiet during the year end weekday, the show must go on. Yes, we learned something about warm Polish hospitality and generosity.


Our Polish friend had provided valuable intelligence that the beetroot soup with dumplings was his favourite and that at least one person must order this when we dine here.


Pork chop with fried, boiled potatoes and carrots. Every meal came with a side dish of salad. How can we possibly eat so much food?


The cabbage rolls with rice and beef filling was naturally sweet.

This was the huge serving of pork knucker. To my knowledge and from memory, I don't think that any other restaurant in Sydney serves this tender melting and delicious stew at such a reasonable price.

We asked for the top and second most popular beer. They were pleasant tasting and surprisingly better than some local beers.

We heard that the doughnuts were the thing to die for. But we simply did not have any space left for more. We even had to pack some of the meat home.
