Just last week, dinner with friends sparked conversation about local Italian markets. (The friends…read moreare from here. I'm not.) "You would love Carlino's," M said. So here we are in West Chester, and what do I see? I was aware of the store in Ardmore, not realizing there are other locations. To be fair, this is an incomplete review as I just darted in for wine to go with dinner. However .... I looked around and my friend was right. This is my kind of store! The sausages and cheese, prepared items, hoagies ..... yum! But what really caught my eye was the showcase of pastries. They sell my favorite: sfogliatelle! Haven't had one of these since stopping for cappuccino at Veniero's. I award four stars rather than the coveted five BECAUSE the $20 wine we bought was mediocre bordering on blah. Before you tell me 'you should have spent more' my response is 'one shouldn't have to.' Plenty of full-bodied reds for even less. Just not here.

Having grown up in Northeast Philly with a mom & pop deli at the corner of my block, I consider my…read morepalate quite refined when it comes to Philly-style neighborhood fare. Now... I have lived in the boro for a little over two years now and despite the fact that I live a little less than a quarter mile away from this place, I've never wandered in. That's mostly due to the fact that almost every raving recommendation I've gotten for a sandwich shop from boro natives has fallen painfully short of expectations. Not to put too fine a point on it, but Bevans will be my go-to from now on. The deli case is a carbon copy of the ones you'll find throughout the Northeast parts of the city, and the selection of cold cuts sidesteps the mediocrity of supermarket-style displays by taking the approach Henry Ford took when he rolled out the model T: "The customer may have any color he wishes so long as it is black." Each product on display has most obviously been expertly selected by the proprietor. And you should thank him for it. Bodega-style limited inventory is also close at hand for your convenience, but the real evidence that these folks have elevated the deli sandwich to a high art are in the details. Order the hoagie special (a sentimental philly traditional offering that includes a small bag of chips and a can of soda) and your sandwich will arrive at the counter in traditional butcher paper... snugly wrapped (without tape) by the hands of a true artist. It's a presentation that subtly hints at the deli's long history of success in the neighborhood having been in business since the late 1950's. UNWRAP that butcher paper (on a tailgate or an office desk) and what you'll find inside can only be described as philly deli perfection. Wafer-thin slices of cold cuts are staged according to your preference (ham & cheese, American, Italian, etc.) and placed on top of expertly proportioned layers of lettuce tomato and onion. Where most local places in this niche try to upsell you on "double meat", Bevans understands the subtle art of keeping hoagie contents in balance... balance that won't have your Amoroso's long roll (I'm guessing) bursting in your hands halfway through the sandwich. They're satisfying without doubling as a post-lunch sedative. Five stars doesn't do it justice. And I'm sure you'll agree.

As soon as you walk in you can smell the delicious cheesesteaks and pizza being made. The workers are some of the nicest people you will ever meet and are very attentive to each customer that walks in. I went with the town talk cheesesteak, which came with fried onions and cooper sharp cheese. The sandwich and fries both came out scorching hot and fresh, so I had to wait a few minutes before giving everything a try. From the first bite of the cheesesteak you can tell you are eating one of the best sandwiches you could ever have. The flavor of the meat combined with the cooper sharp and perfectly cooked onions was amazing. Holding the sandwich together was a delicious fresh cooked seeded hoagie bun. Perfect amount of crisp on the outside, but soft and delicious inside. The fries were also very good and went well with their homemade ranch. Great experience eating here and cannot wait to stop back!

As of today's review…read moretheir hours are as follow: Wed, Thur, Fri - 9am-5pm Sat - 9am-4pm Sun, Mon - CLOSED We just tried Thompson's the other day. Got some burger and some steaks. The burger was very good, and will satisfy you for a good burger. My husband and I like Westtown Meat Market's burger a little better, but really, both are excellent. We prefer Thompson's steaks to Westtown's, for sure. Our strip steaks were delicious. Very pleased. Thompson's was a little hard for us to find because it is around the side toward the back of the strip-mall-type building where it is located. When approaching the building from the road, you want the left side of the building and you'll find it. Parking was easy and very close. Mr. Thompson is very friendly and attended to us immediately. The shop is small but had everything we might want in the cold case. Additionally they sell McCutcheon's fine food products (somewhat locally based in MD). Very good experience. You sell my husband a good steak and he will be back! :-)
