First time here! Wonderful place for all your German heritage! The market has everything but the restaurant is where this place takes the gold! Can be a little bit of a wait because it only holds very few guests. But the food...Read More

The store part is a perfect example of an old school German grocery store. All it's lacking is the Bäckerei! They more than make up for it with their hausmade sausages and imported meats and cheeses from Europe.They also offer a little café where you...Read More

There are not many places in New England where one can get authentic German (and to some extent, Scandinavian) food. This is the best I have found in Massachusetts. It is mostly a "buy and take home" deli type place, although I believe they do...Read More

Awesome place to shop European products. If you miss good quality food from across the ocean, this is your place. Products from Germany, Poland, Northern countries, from chocolate to herring. You can find all kinds of items that are made with real products, real sugar,...Read More

I checked it out today for the very first time and I was totally overwhelmed at how disorganized this place was. The shelves are mostly a mish-mash of different stuff without a clear idea where anything is. There was a line but it was not...Read More

This is a great place, part foreign grocery and part cafe/restaurant. The staff was helpful, friendly and prompt. They were getting busy when we arrived just after noon for lunch, and although we had no wait to be seated, the next couple did....Read More

You feel like you are in Europe when you enter here. Many of the wonderful items I've enjoyed in Sweden can be found here. I've been buying their korkov sausage for 25+ years as it's a staple for our Christmas Eve smorgasbords. They have a...Read More

Truly fantastic.German food is bizarre. This is the closest I’ve come to eating real, German food is sauerkraut, and I hate it. So when my wife recommended this little cafe to me to eat dinner at, I was skeptical to say the least. And I...Read More

This is by far one of it not the best places to go for German food in MA. They have imports of groceries from all over Europe, accompanied by house mad sausages and other cured meats. Don't miss the cafe while you're here for...Read More

Karl's sausage kitchen is the best place in this area to purchase authentic German food. A great deal of their delicatessen products are produced on site. Others come from well-known manufacturers of German products from other cities. I first read about Karl's years and years...Read More

I have a large family and we go to Karl's on a regular basis, separately and together. They have great food and some newer cafe staff lately. It seems some younger staff don't know a great deal about the food or beer they're...Read More

They have great German sausage and many authentic German food here. My husband tried the Rouladen and he think it's close to what he had in Germany. I had the Bauernwurst and it's very juicy with very fresh casing. The sides were simple but tasty....Read More

This place is the best. Crammed with European goodies like tinned fish and real Cadbury and salted licorice and fun mustards and great cheese, and then the main attraction: the butcher case. The sausages, both fresh and smoked or cured, are out of this world...Read More

If you want "authentic" German sausage and other European items, then you can't get any better than Karl's Sausage Kitchen. Even if you don't, this is still a very unique market where you can learn a bit of a different culture. They also have added...Read More

Karl's is the place to go to if you are looking for European treats or just want to discover something new from the Old World. Of course, you can't get sausages that are fresher or taste better than those that they make on site....Read More

Wonderful small European grocery/deli. Emphasis is on German foods, but packaged goods are continental, and include a few items from Scandanavia and the British isles.Their main feature is their sausages, made on the premises. All are delightful; my personal favorite is their liverwurst and their...Read More

Very popular location, great selection of sausages and food, and also incredible selection of hard to find grocery items. Regarding the food ordered, the spaetzle was a little "off" from what I was expecting, maybe a little undercooked, mushy and lacking any flavor. ...Read More

My name is Karl. My friends think I run the place. I don't. The casings on the sausages come out very tough when they smoke the meat. I recommend the fresh kielbasa. Debrasiner and Bauernwurst are best. Cakes are...Read More
