We bought a bunch of condiments too! The staff was friendly and very knowledgeable. I asked a-lot about different products and learned a lot. They also dry there meat there on the premises! My boyfriend and I ate the amazing roast beef dip sandwiches and brusselspouts with bacon soup in the car. It was raining so we couldn't sit outside on the benches. The sandwiches were chock full of meat with a sharp provolone cheese and some kind of spicy green peppers. The beef broth dip was dark and superb! The sandwich had an excellent balance of tastes (complexity) and was extremely satisfying! A must go to place for a quick bite or to buy dinner to prepare or even quickly heat up at home! Run and try out this place! It's going to be a place you crave and have to have. I wish I could give this place 10 stars!

Great for those who prefer it a bit on the well done side.

I arrived at the small shop and was greeted by two friendly ladies. The menu board was simple, and I opted for the Italian hoagie. She explained the difference between hard and soft rolls, and I decided to go with the large one (which I'm glad I did). The hoagie was incredibly delicious! The fresh meats and cheeses were of the highest quality, and there was no skimping on ingredients. I ate half of in the car and the rest when I got home. This small shop far surpassed any chain restaurant I've ever been to, and it's definitely one of the best food experiences I've had. I'm completely satisfied and will definitely make this a weekly treat.

I just can't say no to V&S…read more Although I've never actually set foot in V&S (at this location or the two others dotted across Reading), I find myself absolutely addicted to their subs. About once a month, a co-worker of mine says she's going to V&S and asks me if I want anything. I do indeed. And what I want is an Italian sub. They are so baller here. It's almost like a White House Subs level of fanaticism. So basically whenever I go down to AC, I make a point to stop at White House to pick up a giant sub before even checking into the hotel room. Then on the way out of AC after a weekend of debauchery, I stop by White House again and buy TWO more subs to take home. Whenever I order at V&S, I get subs by the pair. It's never just one. It's at minimum two, but I could definitely see myself ordering three at a time. That could last me the next day or two. A whole sub makes a great dinner. A half sub makes a great late night snack. The other half is a perfect lunch the next day. So what makes a great sub? Well, tons of high quality meat for one. Like, it needs to be piled high. Two or three layers just doesn't cut it. Then fresh cold ingredients, like tomatoes, lettuce, and onion. Next is high quality olive oil that pairs well with an exceptional red wine vinegar. Perhaps one of the most important components is a robust roll. And last but not least, a crushed red pepper relish that adds an extra bite to each, well.. bite. V&S has all of the above. In contrast, the hot dogs here are straight ass. I know, I know. Who gets hot dogs? Well, someone who relishes in the joys and heart complications of transfats for one. Mike from the Jersey Shore was known as "The Situation." You can call me "The Saturation." The hot dogs here are limp and shriveled. I'd wager 7-Eleven has higher quality dogs. On the plus side, if you ask for extra toppings - especially if you request them on the side - V&S is super generous. I asked for onions and they asked if I wanted them on the side. I said sure, so they included a big bag of fresh sliced onions. This was enough for the hot dogs and provided an additional cache of onions that I could sauté up with some chicken and veggies to make a completely separate meal. As I finish this review, I have a major hankering for one of their Italian subs. BRB, gonna place another order.

At the entrance there a handcrafted wooden birdhouses for sale, then once inside you can find individual vendors with a variety of goods including fresh produce, flowers, meats, baked goods, candy, cold cuts, cheese, dairy products, jerky, crepes and coffee & donuts. Additionally, there are a bunch of food vendors with their wonderful scents wafting throughout the market. It'll be tough to choose but good to know that there an options to satisfy whatever you're in the mood. I like the open market floor plan with plenty of seating to eat what you purchase regardless of the vendors. We experienced friendly, quick service at all the places we ate at. We all chose Becca's Coffee & Donuts. We each tried a different specialty drink and none of us were disappointed. They were delicious. And my apple fritter was super fresh and oh-so yummy! My hubby & I both chose pretzel-dough wraps because we had never had them before. I had the eggs, bacon, cheese & hashbrowns and my hubby had the eggs, bacon & sausage. Both were served warm. Comfort brunch: They were delicious and hearty. Totally worth it! The others in our party went for a breakfast burrito and an omelette with toast! Another winner! On the way out, we grabbed some eggnog in a bottle ($2 up charge for the bottle deposit - if you return it, you get the $2 back). Sooooo good! We all left very satisfied -- All the more reason to visit again when in the area! I'm already thinking about what I want to try. *Note: open on Thursday, Friday & Saturday only.
