Village Pantry

First time trying the Pantry after seeing one of their social media videos on a local community page (keep them up, they're working). I looked at their specialty hoagies and found the Messina, which conveniently had the exact meats and toppings I would have ordered if I were building it from scratch. This was a stellar hoagie. It looked beautiful when unwrapped and tasted even better. The seeded roll was crisp on the outside and soft in the center. The greenery was crispy and fresh, far from the soggy wilted junk often served at other places. And one of my favorite things: this may be the first hoagie in my history (and trust me, there have been many both local and downtown) where my request for extra vinegar was understood and executed with vigor. I don't know why so many places are afrai

Allll your Philadelphia favorites in this suburban deli. Stock’s, Tomato pie, gravy, homemade ravioli… They are know for their “Best of Philly” hoagie - The Messina and it’s absolutely a piece of art!!

A hidden gem off the pike. Highly recommend you pass on the corporate fast food sandwich chains/gas stations. Stop in village pantry and take a trip back in time. From sliced to order meats and fresh bread, to pulling a giant pickle out of the barrel. Quality family owned shop serving up the best.

I didn’t make it out the parking lot. The sandwich was packed with meat and toppings. Every bite was evenly distributed. Amazing flavor and customer service with a smile.

Best priced authentic Italian deli! Fresh meat, fresh bread. Wonderful atmosphere! Id give 6 stars if I could.
