Philadelphia likes to take credit for the best hoagies in the country, but just south of the city in Wilmington, you'll find the best subs in Delaware. Wilmington's Little Italy neighborhood perfected the art of tasty subs, and one family-owned deli has been serving up tasty sandwiches for over 60 years.
Since 1956, the Casapulla family has been making the best subs in Delaware in a tiny Elsmere shop.
This iconic, family-owned shop hasn't changed much over the years. This photo from 1984 shows off the familiar interior as it has always looked.
Today, Casapulla's has several locations, and no matter where you dine, you're sure to have a great meal.
Every sub here is hand-crafted, and homemade meats and sauces are the stars of the show.
Their "Turkey Stuffer" might look familiar, and every Delawarean has an opinion on the Bobbie vs. Turkey Stuffer debate. Where do you stand?
The fresh ingredients make a huge difference between this local neighborhood sub shop and the gas station chains that pop up everywhere.
Casapulla's is known for making outrageously tasty sub trays, so don't show up empty-handed to the next family party. Pick up a variety and everyone will be happy!
Whether you stop by for lunch or pick up dinner at Casapulla's, you're sure to enjoy every bite of your sandwich or sub from this iconic neighborhood deli and shop.
Casapulla's original shop is located in an unassuming brick building in Elsmere, and you've got to visit to try their best sandwiches.
