If you havent stopped in her yet, Its a must. They have a huge menu of sandwiches and salads and lots of wine and spirits to search through. Lots of local options. The cookies are delightful. The owner is such a sweetheart! I stopped by to see if they sold feta. They didnt, she did give me free feta from her kitchen! Such a sweet gesture. Please stop by and show her marker/deli some love.

This is a quaint local food mart that has an assortment of snacks and wines. The wines are good quality but tend to be on the pricier side.Their sandwiches are sublime, especially the Southwestern Turkey. If you come here, you definitely want to order a sandwich and a bottle of red, white, or sparkling.

Found this great little local market on the 7 Bridges walking tour. Was a former butcher shop built in the 30s but is now a small market.They make sandwiches and have a great creative selection or you can build your own. Sandwiches were large and reasonably priced.Highly recommend

After months of wanting to pop in here, I finally had a few minutes to go in today. So many wines at all price points, all the random little food essentials you might need and the best looking sandwich board. It’s Boar’s Head products, so you know they’re good. Can’t wait to come back and try them allll. I was checking out, buying a bottle of wine and the woman working was so kind and helpful. She gave me some cool history on the store (the fridge!!!) and even gave me a free baguette. Thank you!

The owner is hard working, good cooking, and preparing excellent food, always in a good mood. She and her team are fast and effective. I c the same faces when i visit for cigarettes, which r the cheapest in town at less then 10 bucks a pack. The store is spotless and woodsy like. She sells a lot of wines cold drinks and sandwiches among other things.

I went in here for the first time tonight after recently moving to the neighborhood. They have my favorite gluten-free beer! And a great selection of beer and wine in general, as well as a small but thoughtful selection of other items, and their sandwich menu looks amazing. Romi the owner was so friendly and helpful, pointing out all the gluten-free items they had, she was a pleasure to talk to, I can’t wait to come in again soon!
