Stopped in for the vegan ice cream at Mommomms on the way to the beach and grabbed a veggie sub. My first time here and I couldnt have been more pleased.A good amount of fresh veggies to choose from (they have spinach!) and the roll was delicious.I was so happy with the sub I stopped and grabbed another on my way home.The staff was very friendly, attentive, and moved quickly. Looking forward to the next time!

I just came in today for the first time in a very long time, Ive not ate a sub from here since I was a little girl and its been awhile for my mom. She wanted to buy me lunch today and Ive been craving for a good Italian, I am beyond thrilled they still have the BEST SUBS Hands down in the whole state of Delaware. If you live her and have not tried them please do yourself a favor and go check them out even if you are just riding threw, you will not be disappointed. Its just as I remember growing up if not better!! I wish I coukd woot and rave more about this place but once you try it, it speaks for itself. As well as the very polite and friendly customer service.

I have been going here for years and this is the first time I had to bring a sub back..had 2 kind of peppers and the wrong cheese.I ordered salt and pepper and ex cheese....the problem was the attitude when I brought it back ! I go and tell her who I am its up front a lil girl hands it to me no bag no sorry nonething....I am BIG on customer service and they made me feel like they dont need any customers so....GOOD LUCK I wont be back for bad attitudes...

On the east coast, you have many options in any major city for great food. Walking in you feel like family. You feel like you have always called this place home. So what about Dover, Delaware? What if your visiting the capital of the first state and suddenly you have a hankering for a great lunch or dinner? Well, thats where this humble, laid back, friendly sub shop comes in. Its truly home away from home.Living in Dover, you do have many options concerning your hunger. You sit down and await your server. He or she comes to the table and takes your order. He or she brings you order to you. Now, you have a plate of food that you couldve gotten anywhere. Youre full, just not satisfied. What could you have done to ease that hunger? Come by the Little Grocer and grab a one of a kind sub.Thats not all though folks. Its a one stop shop for all your travel needs. Food, snacks, drinks, they have you covered. All of this comes with a friendly and welcoming atmosphere.So you may be asking how this could get any better. What if I told you that right next door to the shop is home made ice cream? A shop dedicated to not only satisfying your sweet tooth, but also visiting a family owned, and family built group of business. If your passing through Dover and need a quick, satisfying, legendary lunch or dinner, then stop by and see them at the Grocer.When you get there, tell them the Maverick sent you. Answer the question of the day to get 50 cents off of your sub or sandwich order. Be safe on your travels and enjoy.

Great local place. Love their subs; great bread and ingredients. Friendly fast service.Provided our church a fair price for serving subs to a homeless shelter.

Me and my mom went here yesterday to get two hoagies. Mind you. I use to come here years ago and the hoagies were amazing. Can’t say that no more. I literally had one piece of turkey on my hoagie and all the rest was lettuce tomato onion oil mayo. I was very disappointed in them. They ruined a good thing.. Take ya cravings wale where

For the best subs! For the best price! Then you havent been here. Ive been coming here since was 9 years old. Coming here with my friends parking our bikes in the parking lot getting 1-10 cent candy. Growing up in the area before retiring in North Carolina. I come home a lot to see my my Mom and I have to stop here and grab a sub for my Delaware craving. This place hasnt lost a step and it feels good to walk into time from when I was a kid. Pay that overpriced sub at Jersey Mikes! I guarantee the best sub for the best price is the Little Grocer!

This is a hidden gem in Dover. Some of the best food that you can find and the staff is very friendly. It may look small but they are better than any of the big shops in town.

My visit is always satisfactory, great family that runs the store always great food they treat everybody like u are family too, they have a menu board but allow u to order whatever kind of concocktion u want & charge accordingly, they have sandwiches subs dinners salads groceries drinks ice & ice cream some homemade, they are basically always busy because Im not the only one who loves this fantastic Mom&Pop store, I myself have been going in there quite often & 35 years u cant beat it. They do quick service waiting on u & always make u glad u came so much that u come back for more time after time. I have never been treated badly & after 35 years I cannot find anything bad to say about this place, its like a second home.

I found the staff to be friendly and helpfull. I was greeted as coming through the door with a smile and a hello. I found the subs to be very well made. Not too much not too little and they were not soggy by the time I got home. It is a old fashioned Mom & Pop store with things you cant find elsewhere. Best place to go in the summer time for a sandwich/sub, a cold drink, and a bag of chips.

Always friendly and have great subs. I love how their turkey isnt like straight deli meat, squares. Its funny how if you go in there to pick up and they do not have an order under your name they know to call The Grocery Basket as they always get mixed up.

Have never had a bad experience here. I am a frequent supporter 6 days a week at least and honestly anyone who says they have had a bad experience I question it. And honestly if you did address it with the owners. Very down to earth family owned business. This is what old school delis are. Have never had an order screwed up and I tell them what I want and they get it right everytime.They have had a few changes with staff but be patient some take a little longer but hey its not fast food.Also if you go in here at peak times and complain about speed you have to be special.Great small business

I absolutely love going here for the subs. Every employee there will go out of their way to make sure your order is perfect! My wife will definitely tell you that they have the best Philly steak in Delaware! After were done eating, we always stop into Mommoms ice cream (which is connected to the little grocer). Its the little things like the daily trivia question they ask, and service with a smile that make this place so awesome!

Review №37

Love the salads, I get the chef salad with extra meat, to share with my 4 legged babies. The large one lasts me 2 days. I have difficulty chewing and swallowing due to my illness but the way all the vetables are shredded I am able to enjoy a salad again. Thanks! Thanks to my daughter Heather for driving and getting me the salad When ever I want it because I cant drive. Also thanks to her for suggesting such a great place. You are a little gem just tucked away. Love your hand made ice cream too from next door.

Never had a bad sandwich from this location! I would venture to say that this is the best mom and pops location in Dover Delaware! We order from here at least 2-3 times a month...price point isnt bad either!

The Prices are very fair and cheap. The staff are very friendly and they remember your face and your name. They have a question of the week and if you answer correctly you could get 50¢off your order. This store has a little of everything for your quick stop needs but I mostly go for the subs.

I ordered a salad amd gave specific ingredients. The first time they made it, it was wrong. I took it back and asked for the correct salad. Instead of remaking it they picked out with their hands what i didnt want and threw more peppers on top to make it look fresh. Once i started eating, i noticed i still had the old ingredients in. Once i called to ask for a new one Matt started yelling over the phone that unless i was willing to pay for both salads then i wouldnt be getting a fresh one. I will never again order from again

I currently live in New Mexico and must say: There is no sandwich shop that can hold a candle next to Little Grocer! The Stachecki family has always made sure their service, fresh ingredients, and quality of food were paramount. I was in Dover a few weeks ago; I ordered a large turkey sub, and as usual, Little Grocer never disappoints. Rest in peace Jane Stachecki you will be missed.
