One of my favorite sandwich places in all of the TC! Whenever we are St. Paul and thinking about…read morelunch, this place is on the shortlist. Parking is easy, as there is a free public lot about 50 feet away, and street parking is also available. The workers are always friendly, and often will give you cheese samples (yum). I have never had a bad sandwich here. Some favorites are the chicken salad, the prosciutto-fig-ricotta, and the sweet chorizo. Today, I ordered the Turkey club and the Sandwich of the Week, the La Tur, which had a cow, goat and sheep milk cheese with blueberry honey jam, greens and bacon. It was good, but don't get this sandwich unless you like cheeses that REALLY have that sheep flavor! There are a few small tables for 2 tucked inside by the register, and a couple of small tables outside in nice weather, but this is really more of a grab'n go place. We took these on the plane with us the next day, as we were traveling. Pro Tip: You can earn France 44 rewards at this location, just tell them you are a member when you get to the register!

I loveee cheese so naturally I had to come but what actually blew me away was their tomato soup…read morethat came with my melt! It was the perfect consistency, seasoned really well, and can still taste the freshness of the tomatoes. For the melt, I got the truffle that came with double cream brie, gruyere, mushrooms, honey and black truffle. Everything was melted to perfection and the truffle was delicious without being overwhelming. The bread had a really good crunch to give some texture with the melty gooey cheese. Despite having so much cheese, it wasn't a super heavy meal. More of a take out place. There's a couple tables outside to eat but it was also really windy and hot the day I went so I ate pretty quickly.

Been stopping by Nelson's for years! Need the perfect lunch...look no further!…read more Street parking available nearby! This is a no frills, but well-oiled machine of a deli! The line is usually out the door during the lunch rush, but don't worry...they'll get you through quick! Well-staffed with people that are excited to see you and excited to make you something delightful! Sandwiches (warm or cold) and salads are the name of the game! Choose your line, order it up as is or custom, and grab your soda/chips to make it a meal and you are set! On my latest visit, I had the Old Fashioned, which was perfect! Made a few swaps including a french roll, no tomatoes, add pickles! Perfect lunch size, great value, and quality ingredients! There's a reason people will wait in line for this spot! I can't recommend it enough!

They are located just a block or two away from Como park which has picnic tables available to have a nice lunch outside!

I asked 'what screams 'Golden Fig' such that is will create a unique gift for a special foodie person. They recommended the hot chocolate mix and spices as they create both in house and are unique to their store. There are several options for each and I chose one chocolate and some homemade marshmallows to accompany and several slices that reminded me of far away travels. So fun. I had a ton of fun perusing the store. There were so many things to look at. Lots of holiday options but also a few staples if you just need a local grocer. Parking is on street but I found a spot right in front. Great experience.

Off the beaten path in Midway sits one of those Deli inside a grocery store…read more It is close enough to work that I stop by every once in a while nowadays to pick up one of the most underrated Philly Steak Sandwiches - Kaiser bun, very thinly shaved steak, minced garlic, thinly sliced bell peppers & onions and that damn goddamn delicious cheese. Ooh Wee. The menu posted above the kitchen says they make other sandwiches as well and they seemed to have wings, chicken strips and Catfish Tilapia at bargain price. This deli has had a different menu about 3-4 times in the last year alone. Come to find out, the Deli was leased to others who were cooks but the grocery owner has now decided to keep it in the family and has his wife cooking up the delicious Philly. How do I know this? When I checked in thru Yelp, I supposedly was going to get 1 Free small Fry and it also said "All Yelp customers dining with us will receive 15%". I found out this was "maybe, put on Yelp by the previous cooks", that's what the guy behind the register said. Yelp also seems to think that '$15 for $20 deal' It still is advertising is probably good. Tip: Call to make sure they're open. The deli hours are supposedly 10-8pm. They were not open at 1:00 pm in the afternoon sometimes.

I have purchased turkey a few times that has gone bad in my fridge before or immediately after the sell by date. I have a brand new fridge as well, so that can't be blamed. When you charge this much for turkey, it should at least last until the sell by date. I also don't appreciate how when you purchase a smoothie, they pour massive amounts of it down the drain when it doesn't fit into your cup. At least set those out as samples. It is extremely wasteful.

I'm glad that non-members can shop here, though, because I really enjoyed walking around. They had an aisle with bulk goods in bins, which I don't often see around here. I was mostly there to check out the cheese selection, and what I found pleased me greatly. They had a nice variety of cheeses, including many top-level local makers. They also had diverse jams, honeys, and crackers to go along with cheese; those were arranged atop the cheese gondola and on a nearby shelf. Checkout was fast, the checker very welcoming and pleasant. I'd definitely visit this market and others in the chain if I come across them again.
