Stopped by a couple of weeks ago, the workers seemed friendly enough but the food is overrated compared to the reviews I’ve read on Unilocal.I was hoping for a hidden gem but this fell short. Soup was okay and pork was dried out. Similar food quality that you would find at a 7 – 11.

Let’s talk turkey. Or Ham… or corned beef. I’ve driven by this deli for years without a thought of stopping in… from the outside it looks like one of those convenience stores that used to be a White Hen Pantry(That’s like a 7 – 11 with a deli for those folks that haven’t been around long…) and I haven’t had many good experiences with those ex WHP stores. But, this place isn’t like that. The deli is the feature, not a sideline and they have a dedicated eating area. I stopped in because of the Unilocal reviews and I’ve been experiencing some seriously good lunches based on some of those! I walked in and was trying to decipher the menu board, but was feeling some pressure because I was the only customer(it was early) and the nice guy behind the counter really wanted to help me… I asked about the chicken chili. he said«It’s fresh, we just made it» so Ok, I started with a couple of orders of that. While I was trying to figure out what goes on the sandwiches. he pulled out a tray of half sandwiches that he had just made. So I bought four different ones to try. I walked out of there with two chicken chili’s, two bags of chips and the four ½ sandwiches. Tri-Turkey, Turkey, Italian and Corned Beef. I wasn’t eating it all myself(this time) I was taking some home to share. Lisa and I thought the sandwiches were good. Decent breads, fresh meat but not exactly packed with flavor. This is a preference thing, many of the other reviews like them for this very reason. I like flavor. The corned beef was my favorite of the bunch, but I think that’s because it was the most flavorful. Usually an Italian sub would be my favorite, but this one. not so much. The chicken chili tasted exactly like beef chili, except with chicken. That’s not necessarily a bad thing, it is what it is. I’ve had chicken chili done a lot of different ways. The one thing that I didn’t like about it was that the chili was just loaded with kidney beans. a LOT of them. I’m not a big fan of kidney beans in my chili, but it goes without saying that some people make it that way, and I eat it… this chili just had way too many of them. I ate it anyway, but wouldn’t order that again. Really nice people there and I wanted to be more excited about the food. I would try it again…

I was first introduced to this deli about seven years ago. Now that I’m no longer in the immediate area, I don’t get to visit as often as I like but I still try to make it a point to stop on occasion. Like others have said, you can find candy, chips, pop, and the like and pick up a great lunch special at the same time. Yesterday I opted for my favorite, the Italian sub(with everything) with a small chicken gumbo soup. The fresh tasting ingredients combined with the care put into crafting your order makes this place special. You’re not walking into a convenient store and picking up a pre-made sandwich from the cooler. Nope, not here. The employees are friendly and will answer any questions you might have. Picking up lunch here feels like grabbin’ a quick bite with family. You are not just a customer to them; you are treated like a friend. That alone speaks volumes. The price for their sandwiches is on par with Subway, Quizno’s, etc… but the difference again is the quality, freshness, and care put into your order. I walked out of DD&P eager to enjoy my lunch, unlike other places where I pick up a sandwich just to get«something in my belly.» I will be back!

The people that work there are very kind, and the food is simply delicious. It’s simple in such a good way, and more delicious because of it. Half sandwich and soup for only 5.99. And it’s not a chain but it’s own unique family run place. Thanks for the great meal!
