A Walk thru Slavic Village

Return to Fleet Avenue and turn left for your last -- and best -- stop on the tour. Located on the north side of the street, in a red brick, restored building is the Seven Roses Deli, a gem of a store with hardwood floors, a gorgeous tin ceiling, and floor-to-ceiling shelves with a rolling library ladder.

The Seven Roses offers a full array of meats and cheeses, Polish canned goods and sodas, and prepared Polish dishes as well as home-baked breads and pastries. If you get there early enough, you'll see the wide variety of breads spilling across the counter. Some of the merchandise is labeled only in Polish, but the staff couldn’t be friendlier in helping you translate.

Finish your tour by having a pastry or sandwich at one of the cafe tables, located at the rear of the store.
