When passing by this place, you probably wouldn't think much of it other than be surprised a video store is still open today when most have long since kicked the bucket. But this particular video store is hiding something else that makes it truly unique, and it is well worth a stop to try.
The video store gets first billing on the outside, of course.
But just off to the side, you can see there is also a deli here.
This may surprise most people who don't know about this local gem. A deli at a video store? You'd think it would be pretty basic stuff, but as soon as you see the menu and taste their food, you will be proven otherwise - trust me.
Inside, the video section is the first thing you see, still selling movies to this day.
If we're being honest, video stores are a becoming a thing of the past, and finding a chain rental store still open is a rarity in itself, but finding a local place still chugging along just fine is something really rare. You can browse through here if you'd like, but if you take a step to the right you'll find something that might just make you forget you're in a video store in the first place.
In the same room and off to the right is the deli section
When you walk up to the counter, you'll notice that they have fresh dough rising in the glass case next to the wall, ready to be baked into their homemade, fresh bread they use on all of their sandwiches. But sandwiches aren't the only thing they serve, in fact they serve enough to qualify them as a full-fledged restaurant, not just a deli. The menu on the wall is packed with everything from their subs, wraps, burgers, tacos, salads, desserts, and more.
The food is second to none, and the fries are out of this world good.
Shown above is my personal favorite, the parmesan chicken sandwich. The bread is obviously fresh and delicious, the chicken is cooked and seasoned to perfection, and have I mentioned that the fries are awesome? Because they are.
As a deli alone, their selection of sandwiches surpasses that of many other places. Whether you like something plain and simple like a grilled cheese with your choice of cheese and bread, shown above, or something a little more unusual like a ham and cheese in between pretzels as a bun, you'll find something you like here.
This place is full of surprises and will leave you full with great food.
Don't forget to grab one of their cookies and a rental before you go!
