Customer Reviews
Great place for a freshly made deli sandwich, ice cold cooler of drinks, deli salads or chips. I had turkey, pepper jack cheese and banana peppers. Made to order and super good!!! Just a heads up sign on counter says (deli sandwiches 11 to 2)
Love this store! Always fresh farm produce, milk in glass bottles. Visiting this store for years every week. Staff is very helpful. Breakfast sandwiches are very good. The best corn I ever tried! Farm tomatoes are the earliest in the region!
We love our little country grocery and deli. Vince makes the best soups and sandwiches, plus baked beans and potato salad spring through late fall. Don’t forget the local farm fresh eggs and delicious fresh corn on the cob late summer until it’s out of season! Plus other fresh produce, local honey and northeast maple syrup!
Nice ma and pop convience store. Picked up some snacks and ginger ale but was too nervous to order a sandwich. Next time. Definitely gonna visit a lot now that its summer since i can bike there
This family owned butcher & food shop is a hidden gem. The quality of their meat is exceptional. My go-to cuts are steak and veal, especially for special occasions, and they never disappoint. Here’s a tip, Vince has a secret steak seasoning. I haven’t figured out the ingredients yet, but whatever is in it definitely elevates the flavor. 😉 I’ve attached a picture of the cooked steak for reference—I forgot to take one before cooking, but just look at it. Big, juicy, and that fat cap? Perfection. You can’t tell me that’s not a beautiful cut of steak. It was unbelievably tender, and I’m salivating just thinking about it. Besides the meats, their soups and sandwiches are also worth a try. I’m a soup person and I truly appreciate their selection of homemade soups. Their roast pork sandwiches are hands down the best I’ve ever had! On top of the amazing food, the service is just as great. Michelle and Vince are always so lovely, making every visit a pleasure. It’s clear that they care about their customers and take pride in what they do. This is one of my favorite spots in the Capital Region.
Best hamburger and breakfast sausage! Service is always exceptional 👏 …
Great place, carries best local produce when in season, excellent meat and very friendly owner. Oh yes GREAT FRESH HARD ROLLS!
Friendly owners but foul smells and limited inventory. They are selling frozen recently butchered meats - but I did make a purchase so can't remark on that
I tried their meat a while ago and was very impressed with the service and the cut of the meat. I was a chef for many years and to impress me is not an easy thing. I would get them a very high rating. They’re very friendly and will take very good care of your dining needs
Awesome family run shop. Great deli sandwiches, fresh fruit and vegetables. I still need to check out all fresh and frozen meats, looking forward to it!
