Fall River’s Patti’s Pierogis has a buyer, but you still have time to grab your favorites
One of Fall River’s most popular restaurants appears to have a buyer after being put up for sale.
When Guy Fieri uttered “I’m in pierogi paradise” on his popular Food Network show “Diners, Drive-Ins & Dives” in 2012 after biting into a cabbage and pork pierogi at Patti’s Pierogis at 1019 South Main Street, he was stating something many city residents already knew with more delicious options than you can count.
So delicious that in 2019, Bill Murray, who is known for his stint on Saturday Night Live and his long list of hit movies including Ghostbusters, Groundhog Day, and Caddyshack, stopped by Patti’s with Peter Farrelly who has partnered with his brother Bobby to produce, write, and direct comedies such as Dumb and Dumber, There’s Something About Mary, and Green Book.
After years of serving the public tasty polish cuisine, owner Patti Geary had announced that despite loving every minute of her experience, she was looking for the right person to buy the restaurant.
While the sale of the property is still pending, according to the online real estate listing, Tan Nguyen of Boston is set to go in front of the Fall River Licensing Board this month representing TTC Entertainment LLC to transfer the Alcohol Common Victualler license.
Rumblings suggest the restaurant may pivot away from Polish cuisine under its prospective new owner, though that has not been confirmed.
It is currently unclear when Patti’s will close, but for now, it is business as usual.
