Chester County is home to some family-owned and operated delis that specialize in delicious hoagies, sandwiches, and unexpected bites, writes Anne E. Hill for Main Line Today.
A 2025 Best Deli award winner, Carlino’s Market has two locations, in West Chester and Ardmore. Hot and cold classic sandwiches are popular there, ranging from classic Italians to fried eggplant parm. Hoagies are also available in bowls, for those who are skipping the bread.
Neopolitan Delicatessen & Restaurant, in Berwyn, boasts an extensive menu, offering unexpected meals to go along with deli orders. Roast beef sandwiches, cheesesteaks, and BLTs are up for grabs, as well as crab cakes, ravioli, and breakfast sandwiches.
In case that isn’t enough, Neopolitan also has beer at the ready for those who are interested in indulging.
Our Deli & Cafe, in Paoli, is the perfect food stop for any time of the day. Eggs, waffles, and French toast dominate the breakfast menu, but lunch and dinner don’t fall short.
You’ll find a long list of burgers, sandwiches, and hoagies to choose from, including tuna melts, Virginia ham, chicken Dijon, and more. NY strip steaks and BBQ baby back ribs are some surprise menu options.
