Pulled Pork sandwich w/ Eggy's award winning slaw.
Roger K.

I'd been wanting to try one of Eggy's famous egg sandwiches for a number of years. Everyone raves about them. My problem is that I don't typically get up early enough for breakfast. I thought today was going to be my opportunity. I was out of the house early to have some blood work done after fasting, and I even had an errand to do that would take me right by Eggy's. Unfortunately, I still missed Eggy's breakfast hours which end at 11 am. But I'm guessing that most of you early birds are missing out on a second treat that likely compensates those who prefer to hit the snooze button and show up at Eggy's for lunch. I ordered his Pulled Pork with Eggy's Award Winning Slaw ($6.99). The pork has a good balance of vinegar acidity and sweetness while being super tender. The slaw adds a nice crispness to each bite, is not overdressed, and allows all the flavors of the pulled pork to come through. This is no small sandwich. The pork and slaw are served on a really fresh and soft torpedo roll that holds up quite well to traveling should you decide to not eat at one of the picnic tables or in your car. Maybe someday I'll find myself driving home from an all-nighter before 11 am and I can score one of Eggy's breakfast sandwiches.

First- you have to judge a place for what it is. This is a stationary food truck in an industrial warehouse area. This is not the place for atmosphere or ambience. It is a working-person's food stand. A place to grab a hearty sandwich for as you head back to your construction site. So, there will be no detracting based on location or comfort. It has a wooden picnic table and two wooden spools that serve as stand up tables. No garbage can. Deal with it. (Don't look inside the truck if animated large-bosomed women and a "F**k Biden" sign would offend you.) Second - Eggy serves one thing. Fried egg sandwiches. A buttered roll with 2 fried eggs, cheese, and your choice of meat. (Bacon, sausage, bologna, pulled pork, and a couple of other options.) This is ok. I love egg sandwiches. And my friend who brought me here said, "These are the best egg sandwiches in the area." I can only assume my friend's concept of an egg sandwich or his definition of "area" are sorely misguided. If you only do one thing, you best be damn good at it. Eggy is not good at making egg sandwiches. I ordered mine with extra cheese and crispy bacon. The eggs were fried hard. The bacon was charred and burnt almost beyond recognition. The cheese was melted, but otherwise tasteless. The roll was the best part of the sandwich. I could make a better egg sandwich at home with one hand behind my back while wearing a blindfold. I see this place has 5 stars. And it is spoken of with reverence in foodie circles in this town. And I have no idea why. The best I can say is, it's an experience.

Great find thanks to yelp. Really good home made breakfast sandwich. I got a bacon, egg and cheese on a hard roll and it was as good as if I made it at home but I didn't have to go through the trouble of doing it. This place is almost on my way to work but morning time is precious so I went on a day off and got there before 11am. At just before 11am the guy that runs the food truck switches out his menu to a lunch menu. I would definitely go back if timing is convenient and I am in the area. Friendly service.

Is it across the street from a methadone clinic? Yeah. But are the bacon, egg and cheese sandwiches legit? Totally. This has to be a contender for one of the best BEC in the region. I know that's a big claim. But the guy manning the grill told me that he used to be the guy behind breakfast at Quintessence. The original Quintessence. Not it's gussied up second life. And this guy, who goes by the name of Eggy, puts a lot of heart into what he does. This truck isn't exactly a mobile operation. Eggy pays rent on the land, and he runs an electric line so you don't hear the drone of a generator while you eat your expertly griddled sandwich at the smartly painted picnic table adjacent to the truck. These eggs are from the hard fried school. Some people love 'em like that with crisp edges. I'm typically a fan of lower heat cooking for more tender whites. But it works here. Mostly because that bacon is just so fantastically crisp. And there's no question about what kind of cheese this sandwich comes with, it's white american. Obviously. And the thing is so flavorful you can skip the saltpepperketchup. I mean, this isn't Jersey, you know. If you're sketched out, don't be. Come. Enjoy this. And know that you're getting a special treat that those who may be skittish about the neighborhood will never get to experience. N.B. Last year Eggy stayed open until late December. He's trying to winterize the truck a bit better this year. But now he has a phone, so you can call and confirm if you plan to make the drive out.

Pulled pork with slaw

It's just one guy in a tiny little food truck, slinging some of the tastiest food I have eaten in a while. The picture is of the pulled pork and slaw sandwich. The whole plate (with a drink) was $8.95 and it was so much food I couldn't finish it. The slaw is "award winning", and for good reason. It's delicious! Makes me excited for my next trip to Albany.

Best mango smoothie

Kim our serves was the best. Great customer service. Food taste great and didn't take long to come out.

Bacon and egg breakfast sandwich!
Jessica H.

The BEST breakfast sandwich I have ever had!!!! You can tell as soon as you walk up to get in line at the Eggy's truck that this is a local favorite and as soon as you take that first bite you will know why! The roll was soft and warm, we literally watched him crack the eggs onto the griddle and cook the bacon right in front of us while we waited! Fresh food, cooked to order, reasonable prices and it's delicious! Definitely going to be a place we go back to time and time again!!!! Thanks Eggy! Can't wait to check out lunch sometime!

After reading Daniel Berman's review last night, I came first thing in the in the morning. I may have even been the first customer. The owner was indeed a personality, as he greeted me with a "what's up boss?" and told me he had a sandwich already cooking for me when he heard me pull up, this was my first time here. My "eggwich" and coffee was served in less than two minutes along with "a nice soft napkin, not like that brown sh*t that rips your face apart." For what it is, this is perfect. A quick, simple, delicious bacon, egg, and cheese sandwich on a hardroll and a coffee for less than a 5 spot. Exactly what I needed this morning, after a long night of work and before it begins again.

Little food truck posted up in a parking lot. Owner/chef has a ton of character, with cheeky signs and witty quips as he's whipping up your sandwich. 4 slices of bacon (or other meats), and two eggs per sandwich. Only a dollar more for a coffee included. Cold drinks in coolers outside. Great place for reasonable prices.

I will always support local delis and restaurants however sometimes we have to be honest with…read moreourselves when writing reviews on places that we WANT to love. First off I'm not sure what food people in these reviews are eating, because in my experience the Italian mix sub was very bland, the bread was dry, and the meat looked pale and weird. That ambience of the place was nostalgic which is the reason why I gave it 3 stars and not 2. The woman helping me was friendly enough but made it a point to tell me how gas prices were fine at $4.10 per gallon as long as Trump was the president, which annoyed me because it gives an indication that details don't matter here. Given the taste of the $15 small sub I paid for it definitely tracks. Be your own critic, but for me it's the history of this place and not the food has people coming back. I won't be one of them.

After all these years, Fiorello still serves the best Italian sub in this region in my book…read more Service is warm, friendly, and helpful like you'd expect from a mum and pop shop, and I love that this is a local family-run business. Some notable changes I noticed during the most recent visit include a big flat screen TV and tables and chairs indoors. The freezer apparently was out of order, but I would have loved to get their tiramisu which is also one of the best I've ever had. Their sub always strikes the right balance in the dressing, bread, meats, and toppings. Toppings are consistently good quality, and you can customise your sub by asking staff what you do and don't want on it. I hope they stay healthy and busy for decades to come.

I want this place to survive and become the best deli this side of the Hudson. There is a lot of…read morework to be done if that's the case. I gave them 3 stars because it's a new business and they may be working out kinks etc. On a positive note: The service was attentive. They use a quality meat boarshead. Being a freshly opened walk in business, the ambiance is a bit barren. If they want to be a successful deli they have to choose between selling quality deli products or bongs and cheap cigar/tobacco. If they're content with what they are doing, bless them, it's a place I wouldn't go back to even in a jam. Their shelves are filled with things you find at Stewart's, the deli counter seems like a secondary thought after they filled the main behind the counter space with cheap cigars ( the kind you use to roll blunts) and bongs. It did not have the feel of a deli but rather a convenient store with a sandwich counter. The food: as I stated, the boarshead is a good start. The bread was not made today and likely not vacuum sealed since being opened a day or two ago. I had a roastbeef with provolone LTO AND Mayo. Lettuce was wet from being washed (buy a spinner) which makes the sub drip..yuck. Honestly, intake responsibility for not asking for oil/vinegar that may have given the sandwich some life. It was bland. Not enough Mayo, tasteless tomatoes (not their fault), wet lettuce. Just a plain convenient store sandwich. I will try this again and provide them with more direction. Give it a try and let me know what you think.

Absolutely lucked into this place while visiting our daughter at a nearby college. We were headed…read moreto the donut shop next door and saw the sign for the cheese shop. (Certainly a lucky neighborhood) It looks small from the street but once you walk in, it opens up to a sizable store. We were greeted by a friendly staff member, he took the time to describe their cheese selection and the other things going on in the shop. He then pivoted to giving us tons of help selecting the right cheese. We sampled a couple of things and then he dialed in three choices for us to buy. (With an assist from another customer that insisted that we would love the Delice de Bourgogne) Prices were reasonable enough for the quality. We added some gourmet crackers that were neutral enough to not overpower the cheese. The next day, we made the three cheeses the focus of our lunch. The Delice de Bourgogne was the star of the show, a creamy, earthy, and savory masterpiece. The two year aged Gouda and creamy blue cheese were delightful as well! Truly glad that we walked into The Cheese Traveler!

We appreciated the relatively local (Quebec, VT, NY) cheeses they have, and our destination cheese, Wisconsin Brick (which we had never tried before, and which they were quite willing to work with us on getting the appropriate size). The sandwiches looked delicious but we were there at the wrong time of day, alas, but we will 100% be back. If you like cheese, this is a destination location for the region.
