Would give 6 stars if I could—this place is phenomenal!!! A great selection of food and the staff treat you like royalty. This place doesn’t get enough recognition for their amazing customer service.
Lots of choices, prepared food and soups to warm up at home; cheeses and meats cut to your specifications or as cut by store staff; some baked goods, grocery items and fresh vegetables and fruits; gift baskets; expensive!Addendum re: baked goods - though I really like this store, I wont chance buying any more expensive baked goods. Bought a scone and a muffin - $6.50 for both. When I got home, both were stale and crumbly. Inedible!
Ive never been one for cheeses before, but oh wow, such good choices, definitely dont be afraid to ask there opinion on pairing and faves. Their current fave choices are usually on point! Im not even going to get on about the sandwiches, soups and sweets! A definite go-to spot for after work or weekend choices.
Nicely appointed and spacious store with a wide variety of offerings. They have two indoor setting areas - the first near the coffee counter with high top seating near the front window and then a second area with tables so you can eat your lunch purchases. They also offer wine and beer by the glass. The deli is stocked with a variety of salads, prepared foods, and desserts. Di Bruno has a well stocked cheese selection, maybe three best in the city, with knowledgeable help and also have a variety of cured meats and pates.
Love the deli, and their beer selection always changes. Love to stop in to grab lunch to go with my coworkers. Love their cake selection we were able to have I nice surprise for my technician on her birthday.
Always yummy! Went in for just a beverage, came out with 2 plus 3 different salads. So good !
I have not been to the Reading Terminal in forever and a day its very different the Di Bruno Bros was nice very clean the people helpful
I was in the city since my Aunt needed treatment at Jeff ... and was delighted when I discovered this gem tucked into a side street nearby! I needed a quick lunch and was not impressed with the Subway/Auntie Anns/pizza spot I passed on the way. DiBruno Bros was a hit of fresh air with real and healthy looking food options and amazing grocery options I often have to travel to seek out! And yet there it was. I dont wish my Aunt unlimited health care issues (!), but when we are at Jeff, I know where Im heading for lunch and shopping!!
I love the specialty cheese spreads. I can never make up my mind which one to get.
Very clean best and everything is made daily unless death is very nice if you like Gourmet or give it a party and they have excellent hors doeuvres
Had the neopolotin sandwich and it was delicious! They asked if I wanted it toasted as well.
Very high quality, bit pricey. A sandwich for lunch and a beverage however very worthwhile.
Found an olive oil to make an olive oil cake. Yjmmy. Cashier was extremely pleasant and kind. Helpful staff.
Amazing shop. So many things Id want to try. My friend and I were joking about taking one of everything.
I grew up going to the Bruno Brothers since my father passed it just brings back great memories this one in particular doesnt have a lot of the stuff that my father used to buy when I was a kid but it definitely has the goodies to cheeses cannolis desserts just is amazing everythings high quality pepperoni provolone its the best!
Im sad to say me and my pregnant wife came here to grab some lunch (crab cakes)and all I can say is later that night we both ended up with food poisoning for the next couple of days and my wife ended up in the HOSPITAL! AND EVEN AFTER WE GOT OUT THE HOSPITAL FOR THE THIRD DAY STILL HAVE THE RUNS! THIS IS UNACCEPTABLE! as we had travel plans and a wedding to attend.
Love love going there, bought wine for my husbands 60th birthday the gentle there knew his wines I ended up buying two very good red wines on 4/16/21. Very clean, employees very nice.
Great place. Very nice people. Very Knowledgeable
Went there with my client for lunch, a lil pricey on part time salary but the food OMG!!! Crab cakes😋😋 and thats the phat girl in me lol 😆 and the meatballs the meat balls are as big as baseballs turkey and beef if youre picky youll like 👍 😋
Great cheeses, meats, tomato pie, mini meals for the city shopper, cafe, sitting area, craft beer, imported items from Italy. A family chain in Philadelphia. I love visiting any of the stores after a visit to my doctors office. Unwind, shop, and eat in this cozy store. Get an ice pack, put it in a cooler in your car. Be prepared to bring fresh cheese and more back to your home!
Smaller selection but good to have in the neighborhood
Great place to Shop! Love the variety of 5 Star treats & Fresh foods!
Amazing place with cheeses galore, fresh baked goods, ready made food, sandwiches, wine and so much more.
Stopped in for a quick breakfast, a little over priced. Pre-packaged egg, cheese and sausage was on a brioche bun, bread was a little tough. The pre-packaged cake was OK. The coffee was fresh but Starbucks strong, add plenty of sugar. Didnt try their prepared foods but they were plentiful and looked delicious.
One of the best places to go in Philly.
Yummm... cheese store was fabulous. The staff was wonderful. They didnt hesitate with assisting you in making a knowledgeable choice regarding a cheese choice with great cooking ideas. Cant wait to make my omelet. Lol.
I cant say anything but I love everything about this store and they go out of their way for you.Great job and delicious food!
I like their salads and crab cakes. Their choices for cheese are plentiful. All their food looks fresh. FYI, Tuesday is their day for crab cake discount day and Wednesday is the discount day for roasted chicken. Thumbs up.
Delicious, authentic Italian meat, awesome sandwich!! ☆☆☆☆☆
Shame on you! Four dollars and ninety cents for 5 one and one-half inch Mexican Wedding Cookies.An entire Mexican wedding wont run that much.Are customers putting your unborn great-grandchildren through Penn?
Other than the quality meats and cheeses this location offers to buy and take home you MUST try their cheese and meat plates to eat in. You have to go to the counter near all of the seating to order. Bang for your buck is the best way to describe this. You get to try large servings of delicious cheeses, meats, and spreads. While youre there try a glass of wine or rotating draft beers.
Great beer and wine selection. Lots of cheeses and meats to choose from. And lots of other premium foods to choose from.
Delicious food
Store is great but the area sucks!
I used to come here a few years back before switching to a fully plant-based diet. Back then I may have rated it 4 stars because of the variety, but now I see that variety is reserved for those who eat animal products. There is a small vegan selection, which I am grateful for, however I had to alert the staff that two of their products in that section were actually not plant-based. They did immediately correct it, removing the foods. Whether vegan or not, their food is on the expensive end. Unfortunately I (and my family) felt today that the taste didnt live up to the cost. Also, not much seating in the food area... there is a section (or another store altogether?) that seemed to have more seating but it seemed to be a liquor and/or wine area, I wasnt sure it is ideal for younger children (it used to be years ago).All in all, mostly good food, clean and friendly staff, mid to higher price range, decent location, and available variety for different lifestyles.
Awesome beer selection- love to grab a beer and a sandwich here when Im in the area. A definite must-go when youre in the area
Good lunch specials if you want to grab and go or stay and eat. Ask them to heat your food a little extra though (it doesn’t always get as hot as I’d like - especially the chicken).This isn’t a grocery style Di Bruno’s though. No fresh meat/seafood counter either. Mostly deli style with a huge assortment of cold brews and beers.
This place is Awesome! A foodies day in food heaven !
High quality cheese and meats.
Bring your appetite and your wallet.
Poor service, wilted lettuce and bland food. I was really disappointed. I expected more from this place. Better spots in the city
Ummm ROACHES! Utterly disgusted, left right away. To top it off the staff was incredibly rude.Then to discover roaches, I think not. This place needs the board of health to come in😳
Love DiBruno Bros. This store because of the location is usually pretty busy. So expect a wait but prepare to be wowed by the staff here. They do a good job of making waits seems so much shorter because of the interactions. Try to go during an off lunch hour maybe 2:30 to 3:30 Ive found it much more open during this time.
Delicious!!!!Incredible serviceAlways great, friendly people.I love shopping here.Fresh, delicious, affordable options.
The service was non-existent. The food would gag a maggot. Rats and roaches were seen running out of the kitchen area. Never eat at this dump!
So many delicious choices in both the market and the cafe. The staff is very courteous and helpful with navigating the myriad of options.
Definitely can find something for everyone here. It’s a bit pricey, but you do get what you pay for-this is a specialty Italian deli/cafe that has boutique feel to it. You can get everything from soup to nuts and most “high maintenance” needs can be met here.They have salads and sandwiches to go along with all kinds of prepared foods at the deli counter. The cheese selection is not to be missed!
The person behind the cheese counter that helped me could not have been more kind! She was incredibly knowledgeable and so patient and well spoken. I cant wait to go back!
If you want anything special for Italian cooking Di Brunos will have it. They always offer the highest quality products. I try to control myself when Im in Di Brunos, but its useless. Im like a kid in a candy store for the first time.
Love Di Brunos. Best Italian items!
I found a long hair in my meat packaging then got sick after eating cheese. Would not recommend to anyone.
Always great for a good sandwich. Excellent ingredients but you pay for it. Great cheeses.
Thank you so much To The Young Lady Name Tierra she was so sweet and nice helped me with my things she saw me standing there and walked right up to me with the most beautiful smile and warm embrace just to help little ole me find some cheese and meats. I was not in a great mood but she lifted my spirits with hers thank you so much
Nice friendly and knowledgeable people
No thanks man! Better of getting lunch at a fast food joint.
I didnt buy anything because majority of the items were too pricey for me. However, the variety and the tidiness in the store was really amusing. I recommend this place for good quality meats and cheeses.
I visit this store with my mother in law everytime she has an appointment but neither her nor I will be shopping here again after your apology for feeding our overworked police. 🙅🙅 You should think about your comment Everytime you need a police officer.
Take your time looking around because there are so many tasty amazing and surprising things!
My 2nd favorite place on earth
Always a quick and easy lunch spot or a good place to pick up gourmet groceries. The staff is always friendly and helpful, and serve up lunch quickly during a busy lunch hour. New addition of beer which I havent tried there, but people seem to enjoy.
Best cheese selection in the city!
Great deli and shop. Wide selection of items. Staff is friendly and knowledgeable. They have several different sandwhiches to choose from. They are delicious. They are pricey though, but I will still make a visit ever now and then. I recommend!
I had one of the best Italian subs Ive ever had in my life. I will absolutely be going back to try more things. The bottle shop on the side is just a bonus!
Very nice experience I had today at this particular location. The staff was very know legible about the products I needed and were friendly and warm towards me. I enjoy the South Philly location because my Mother would take me as a child, but this closer location is just as nice and they have wine too😊. True foodies paradise ✌
Great coffee, food and customer service. Carter is amazing!
Great authentic foods
Amazing place, great prices and beer selection!
Philly Dean & Delucca. High end southern European delicacies and a decent selection of wines. Very good hot sandwiches + coffee bar. Great cheeses etc...
My husband and stopped in 2 days ago and came back again today! So much to choose from and you can even order food to be heated up and eat it right there. My husband likes that he can purchase beer, too.
Nice to be able to go
Surperb food
U can just lose ur mind in this place when it comes to sandwiches, salads, soup. U can even grab inner already made or ingredients to make a fabulous Italian dinner yourself .
Great food, great space, wonderful service, great coffee, responsible prices for gourmet food. It is always fun to try different flavors as well as Italian classics. Di Bruno Brothers is a teast of old historic Little Italy. Dont miss the meat balls.
What a great store for yummy gormet food. Love the European delicacies that you cant find elsewhere. Consistently good selections. Highly recommended!
Ate here during a work trip to the Philly area. Got sick as a dog from their food.
Love stopping here! If youre a foodie, craft beer lover, or oenophile, this store is for you! Absolutely the best fresh mozzerella as well as an incredible selection of other cheeses. The staff is very helpful, friendly, and knowledgeable. If you like fresh bread, rolls, baguettes, and pepperoni bread, Sarcones delivers it fresh every day. I cant say anything bad about it...stop by and check it out!
Someone told me about the great crab cakes I didnt think they had much taste.maybe theyll try MULROONEYS in Wilmington😀
Not really a market but eccentric and very expensive Italian stuff. Only a few basics such as milk and... what else? All food is highly seasoned with not the best taste. Go elsewhere for real food store items. Wine area is ok. Lots of cheeses, but man does not live on weird cheese alone.
Ordered a turkey wrap. It was very good and the service also was prompt and friendly. Will return.
Lots of good quality prepared foods, cheeses, coffee, and wine. Italian specialties too.
Excellent 👌
Anti police establishment cowards . Overpriced goods. Bad service from snowflake staff who do not understand customer service or customer needs. They really don’t deserve to remain in business.
Their prepared foods and hot sandwiches are amazing. Oh...and did I mention cheese?!? DiBrunos is a cheese, charcuterie, antipasti, and gourmet foodie paradise!
Decent spot for pre-made and on-demand prepared food. Theres also a large selection of food items like cheese and meat available. Ill probably go back for more of the lunch combos they have available.
Pricey but so much delicious stuff. I left with cheeses, pizelles, bread, stuffed olives and some other goodies. Spent more than I planned, but everything is delicious.
Great comfortable place to have a fine microbrew. Will be back.
I will not patronize a hate business and urge others not to do so. Its your choice.
The food here is AMAZING. Love this place
Nice selection of you can afford it.
The food is fresh and exquisite
Terrific store. Larger than 9th street location. Delicious prepared foods.
