  Riverhead Polish Hall History
First organized on April 13, 1903 and incorporated on October 21, 1907; the Riverhead Polish Hall has been an asset to both the town of Riverhead and its surrounding communities.  Our purpose is to promote and provide friendship, education, and interest in all Polish American arts and cultures.

Born out of the Saint Isidore's Society, the Riverhead Polish Independent Club was available to members only until February 1977 when we opened our doors to the general public.  Serving family style Polish American food, a first class catering facility was born.  Staffed almost entirely with Polish American emigrants, the Riverhead Polish Hall is considered to be the social capital of Polish Town.

Directly across Pulaski Street from St. Isidore's Church  , the Riverhead Polish Hall has been the place to have a wedding reception, christening, baby shower, or 50th wedding anniversary.  Host to many a pancake breakfast for local churches and charitable organizations, Polish Hall is an irreplaceable landmark in the town of Riverhead. And although it has been registered to do business as "The Riverhead Polish Hall," it will always remain legally registered in Albany as the "Riverhead Polish Independent Club."

Often used for political debates, the Riverhead Polish Hall has served the community well.  The hall was host to Suffolk County's centennial celebration in 19xx.  Not only have we opened our doors to the local schools for fund raisers, the hall is also made available to house school children in the event of an emergency at the Pulaski Street School.

With a state of the art bowling alley downstairs, the Riverhead Polish Hall lays claim to the first organized bowling league in Suffolk County.  Both men's and women's leagues bowl Monday through Friday, with bowling open to the public on weekends and during the day.  The downstairs bar is open to the public seven days a week from 11am until midnight.  The Golden Ballroom holds up to 330 people, the all new Garden Room holds up to 75.

The next time you're in Polish Town, please feel free to stop in for a visit and see why the Riverhead Polish Hall is truly a place where Polish American heritage still lives. We hope everyone will join us as we celebrate our 100th anniversary this year. Click below on the Events Page for details.
